Gastric Leukoplakia Associated with Fundal Leiomyoma
نویسنده
چکیده
Islands of gastric mucosa often occur in the terminal, and less frequently in the cervical oesophagus (Stout and Lattes, 1957), but, conversely, the presence of heterotopic islands of oesophageal epithelium lin the gastric fundus has been observed only occasionally (Boswell and Helwig, 1965; Altschuler and Shake 1966), and Hermann (1911) reported an area of stratified epithelium, 3 mm long, near two prepyloric ulcers. Large areas of gastric leukoplakia, however, are very rare, and the following case is therefore reported.
