How do gastric polyps arise?

The formation of gastric polyps has genetic factors, but also with a long time to take drugs and Helicobacter pylori infection, most patients with gastric polyps are accidentally found in the upper digestive tract endoscopy, the incidence of gastric polyps increases with age, and more occurs after the age of 60. As long as there are slight small polyps, when doing gastroscopy, routine pathology can be completely removed without surgery, if gastric polyps less than 2 cm or about 1.5 cm, can be minimally invasive resection under gastroscopy. However, if the polyps are large, endoscopic treatment is needed. At this stage, this possibility is generally small, conventional gastroscopy can find very small polyps, early removal with tweezers, can prevent cancer.
