Fragments of gastric polypoid mucosa exhibiting marked foveolar hyperplasia characterized by elongated, tortuous, irregularly branching, and cystically dilated foveolae. These glands are lined by a single layer of benign, mucin-secreting tall columnar epithelial cells with uniform, basally oriented nuclei and preserved polarity. The intervening expanded lamina propria is edematous and contains a mild to moderate chronic inflammatory cell infiltrate composed predominantly of lymphocytes and plasma cells. H. Pylori characteristic forms are not seen. There is no evidence of cytologic atypia, dysplasia, or malignancy in the submitted material.
