Figure 1 Imaging.
A: An abdominal computed tomography scan shows a large, nodular soft tissue mass occupying the pylorus and extending into the duodenum; B: Ultrasonography shows marked thickening of the mucosal and muscular layered lesion at the pylorus and duodenum.
Figure 2 Endoscopic views.
A: Endoscopy shows a diffuse hyperemic and edematous giant lobulating mass from the pylorus to the duodenal inlet. B: The mass lifted easily and was resected in one piece endoscopically.
Figure 3 Retrieved pieces of the large polyp were reconstructed.
Figure 4 Photomicrograph of the polyp with thick-walled vessels and organized thick bundles of arborizing smooth muscle with a prominent basal glandular component.
