Abstract

Villous adenomas are extremely rare in the stomach. This type of lesion is characterized by its high capacity of malignant degeneration, as well as by its association with other tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. In this regard, we present two cases of villous adenoma of the stomach observed in our hospital, as well as a review of the characteristics of these tumors and of the treatment required.
