Abstrakt:	Background/aim: The long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has been reported to be strongly associated with the development of fundic gland polyps (FGPs). Conversely, a few cases of gastric hyperplastic polyps (GHPs) associated with PPI use have been reported. We experienced a case of PPI-associated multiple GHPs with uncontrollable bleeding. Case Report: A 64 year old man with a history of rheumatoid arthritis presented to the hospital with complaints of vertigo and black stools. Blood tests revealed anemia and hypoproteinemia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) showed blood and black residue accumulated in the stomach. The source of the bleeding was multiple hyperplastic polyps. Bleeding could be stopped even with fasting, and total blood transfusions amounted to 28 units of RBCs were required in 18 days. After the cessation of PPI, EGD showed that the polyps had almost disappeared. Pathological diagnosis of resected polyp was hyperplastic polyp, which was characterized by capillary hyperplasia and edema. Gastrin receptors were over-expressed in the foveolar epithelium and not in the capillaries. Methotrexate (MTX)-induced portal hypertensive gastroenteropathy was revealed during follow-up. We consider that the effect of portal hypertension may have caused the capillary hyperplasia. Conclusion: Although PPI-related polyps are usually fundic gland polyps and do not cause life-threatening adverse events, we experienced PPI-related GHPs in which hemostasis was difficult to control.
