Abstract: Upper gastrointestinal polyps commonly occur in patients with familial polyposis coli; but the occurrence of gastric carcinoma is very rare in this disorder. We report a case of intramucosal gastric carcinoma in a patient with familial polyposis coli and multiple gastrointestinal adenomatous polyps. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
