Figures and Tables

Fig. 1

(A) Upper endoscopy showed 1 cm sized subepithelial lesion with central depression was located at the antrum. (B) Endoscopic ultrasonography showed ill-defined hypoechoic lesion located in the submucosal layer (arrow).

Fig. 2

(A) Upper endoscopy showed semi-pedunculated, 3 cm sized subepithelial mass with central depression was located at the antrum. (B) Endoscopic ultrasonography showed hypoechoic mass originating from the muscularis mucosa (arrow).

Fig. 3

(A) Subepithelial tumor was almost removed by endoscopic submucosal dissection with snare technique. (B) Macroscopically, the non-capsulated solid tumor had round yellowish core. (C, D) Resected tumor.

Fig. 4

(A, B) Histology was compatible with inflammatory fibroid polyp presenting typical concentric onion-skin pattern of the stroma and inflammatory cells around vessels (arrows) (A, H&E, ×100; B, H&E, ×400).
