Description
A 70-year-old man was referred to our hospital to treat a polyp in the duodenal bulb. Endoscopic examination showed that the polyp was composed of Yamada type IV lesions with thick stems and a head that was reddish. Magnifying endoscopy revealed a small opening and gastric epithelial metaplasia in the head of the polyp. We performed polypectomy for therapeutic diagnosis. Histologically, the lesion was a duodenal Brunner's gland hamartoma with abundant mature adipose tissue and gastric metaplasia. Brunner's gland hamartoma is composed of hyperplastic Brunner's glands mixed with elements such as adipose tissue, and is often accompanied by gastric epithelial metaplasia. Because diagnosis by biopsy is not possible, preoperative diagnosis of the disease is difficult. However, magnifying endoscopy enabled us to detect some characteristic findings of the disease, such as a small opening and gastric epithelial metaplasia. As a result, preoperative diagnosis might be possible by magnifying endoscopy. This case suggested that magnifying endoscopy is useful for the diagnosis of Brunner's gland hamartoma.
