What is the cause of polyp?

Duodenal polyps are mainly caused by genetic factors, lifestyle factors, chronic inflammation, etc.

1. Genetic factors

Genetic factors are one of the important reasons for duodenal polyps. If someone in the family has this disease, the risk of future generations is higher than that of the general population.

2. Lifestyle factors

Long-term maintenance of a high-fat, high-protein, low-cellulose diet and frequent smoking, drinking and other factors may lead to intestinal dysfunction, which may lead to duodenal polyps.

3. Chronic inflammation

Chronic duodenitis may lead to local tissue hyperplasia, and thus the formation of duodenal polyps.
