Recurrent small intestinal perforation from gastric mucosal heterotopia: A case report.
World J Gastrointest Surg

Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Meizhou People's Hospital, Meizhou 514031, Guangdong Province, China.
Background: Gastric mucosal heterotopia (GMH) is a rare, typically asymptomatic condition characterized by ectopic gastric mucosa in tissues outside the stomach. However, it can lead to severe complications, including small intestinal perforation. This case report highlights the unique clinical presentation of GMH-induced recurrent small intestinal perforations, which has been rarely documented.

Gastric cancer is a significant health concern worldwide, and its diagnosis and management are of paramount importance. Ectopic pancreas (EP) refers to an embryological abnormality where healthy pancreatic tissue develops without anatomical, vascular, or neural communication with the normal pancreas. We report the case of a patient whose initial endoscopic evaluation suggested early gastric cancer, but computed tomography scan (CT scan) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) indicated a locally advanced tumor.

Article Synopsis
- Pancreatic heterotopia (PH) is when pancreatic tissue forms in the gastrointestinal tract and can have various health issues, though cancer development in PH is very uncommon.
- A study reviewed 163 PH cases from 1990 to 2020, finding that 7 had neoplastic processes, including different types of tumors.
- Most affected patients were men around 64 years old, with symptoms such as weight loss and abdominal pain, and it’s critical for pathologists to identify PH to ensure correct diagnosis and staging of potential tumors.
Heterotopic Gastric Mucosa in the Gallbladder: A Rare Case and Differential Diagnosis for a Gallbladder Polyp.

October 2024
Pathology, The University of Alabama at Birmingham, Birmingham, USA.
Heterotopia or ectopic tissue refers to the presence of normal tissue in an abnormal location, away from its typical anatomic site. While heterotopia is not uncommon, its occurrence in the gallbladder is quite rare, and even more unusual is the presence of gastric heterotopia within the gallbladder. This case report describes a 41-year-old female patient with oxyntic-type heterotopic gastric mucosa in the proximal body of the gallbladder.

PGA has been increasingly recognized as a histologically and molecularly distinct entity; however, its endoscopic features have not been precisely described. This study aims to investigate the endoscopic characteristics of duodenal PGA, including the association of their putative precursors, Brunner's gland hyperplasia (BGH), and gastric epithelial heterotopia/metaplasia (GEM/H).
