Abstract

A 56-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with right upper quadrant pain. Her abdominal pain turned out to be gallstone attack. However, she was found to have a pedunculated duodenal polyp in the descending part at endoscopy which was done as a part of work-up of her symptoms. The polyp was measured 25×17×20 mm. Because endoscopic polypectomy was felt to be feasible, the patient underwent polypectomy. After detachable snare was placed on the stalk of the polyp, the polyp was removed endoscopically. The pathological diagnosis was hamartomatous polyp. Follow-up endoscopy revealed complete resection of the polyp. When endoscopic resection of a duodenal polyp is performed, the indication and problems should be considered.
