Figure 2 EBL for a hyperplastic polyp. A: A polyp over the posterior wall of corpus. B: The polyp was aspirated into the hood and ligated with a rubber band after local injection of distilled water into the submucosa. C: The polyp congested immediately after ligation. D: The polyp developed cyanotic change about 4 minutes later. E: An artificial ulcer presented at the previous ligation site. F: Pathological examination of the strangulated polyp revealed both foveolar hyperplasia of the gastric mucosa and severe venous congestion in the lamina propria.
