Abstract
Background: In familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients, fundic gland polyps (FGPs) have been considered a risk factor for gastric neoplasms. We speculated that FGPs in FAP patients spread directionally from the greater to the lesser curvature of the gastric body and investigated the relationship between the distribution of FGPs and gastric neoplasm development.
Methods: We extracted 195 FAP patients from two institutions and reviewed their medical records. Gastric polyposis was classified based on the FGP distribution (P0, no FGPs; P1, localized in the fundus or greater curvature of the gastric body; P2, spreading to the anterior or posterior wall; P3, involving the proximal half of the lesser curvature; and P4, spreading from P3 to the anal side of the lesser curvature).
Results: The 195 eligible patients were divided into the neoplasm group (n = 54, 28%) and the non-neoplasm group (n = 141, 72%). Overall, 24% of the patients were Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-positive. In the FGP distribution, the rate of patients with gastric neoplasm tended to increase significantly with each step towards an increasingly wide distribution from P0 to P4 in H. pylori-negative patients, but not in H. pylori-positive ones. In addition, in H. pylori-negative patients, the likelihood of neoplasm increased consistently from P0 to P4, with the highest odds ratio (95% confidence interval) at P4 of 14.1 (2.5-154.4). Furthermore, multivariate analysis showed P4 and Spigelman stage ≥III were significantly associated with gastric neoplasm development.
Conclusion: FGP distribution was correlated with gastric neoplasm development in FAP patients.
