Abstract
Two cases are reported with polypoid changes of the corpus mucosa of the stomach. X-ray and endoscopic diagnosis was: gastric polyposis. On histological examination cystic changes of the mucosal glands could be detected. These cases were followed up for 7 years; no change occurred during this period until finally the "polyps" disappeared. Localization in the corpus area and easiness of endoscopic polypectomy, as well as the cystic pattern of the mucosa are typical for these "glandular cysts". This condition was unknown up to now or was not diagnosed correctly, this entity not having been delineated yet nosologically.
