Do gastric polyps need to be removed?

Gastric polyps need to be removed, and if they are found to have polyps growing inside the stomach during a gastroscopy, endoscopic submucosal resection together is usually recommended as the best treatment option. Although some inflammatory polyps are not malignant, you cannot identify whether they are adenomatous polyps or inflammatory polyps just by the naked eye. In any case, there is a certain possibility of cancer, so being able to remove it can relieve a lot of worries, and the surgery to remove gastric polyps is not complicated and recovery is relatively fast, so don’t be too nervous. If the polyp is found for the first time, consider surgery to remove it directly. If it is not removed surgically at that time, you can consider surgery to remove it when you review the gastroscopy again at an optional date.
