The prevalence of PHPs in the stomach was higher than assumed in previous studies and misclassification was commonly observed. The appearance of these rare polyps is associated with previous RBL and may correlate with severity of PH. Thus, PHPs may be regarded as marker for relevant PH, but clinical significance of these polyps is still uncertain.
