Patient's question:
Multiple gastric polyps were performed in 2016. A follow-up examination was conducted on October 11th of this year. In addition to a high incidence of gastric polyps, mild atrophic gastritis, and moderate intestinal metaplasia of the stomach. A blood test was performed several times, and the result was negative. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Moderate intestinal metaplasia needs to be taken seriously. Intestinal metaplasia is caused by the replacement of gastric with intestinal gland-like adenoma. Further progression can lead to the recurrence of dysplasia! Polyps are substances that lie between benign and malignant tumors, with the potential for malignant transformation. If complications occur post-surgery, a pathological diagnosis should be obtained. For severe cases of gastric polyps, it is recommended to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Do not change medications arbitrarily, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above information can assist you. Thank you.
