Core Tip

Core Tip: During upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, gastric polyps are frequently encountered, however, most are benign. Despite this, it is crucial that endoscopist have a thorough understanding of diagnostic approaches, management strategies, and screening protocols, particularly for polyps with neoplastic potential. We have developed a new classification system for gastrointestinal polyps based on their likelihood of becoming malignant, categorizing them into "good", "bad", and "ugly" groups. This classification aims to assist clinicians in managing and treating polyps effectively.
