Abstract excerpt

Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFPs) are mesenchymal tumours which arise in the submucosa and mucosa of the gastrointestinal tract. To date, the pathogenesis is unknown and IFPs are considered reactive and non-neoplastic lesions. Investigating a series of 23 IFPs, we made the observation that the t...
