Hamartomatous polyps can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract but usually predominates in the colon. We introduce a case of juvenile polyposis syndrome presented with massive gastric polyposis that requires a total gastrectomy. Case presentation: A 22-year-old man presented symptoms of chronic upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Gastroscopy showed massive gastric polyposis. Initially endoscopic polypectomy was performed, but due to the progressive symptoms, a total gastrectomy was then performed. Histology confirmed massive gastric juvenile polyposis. Conclusion: Massive gastric polyposis it is an uncommon manifestation of juvenile polyposis syndrome.enEndoscopic polypectomyJuvenile polyposisTotal gastrectomyArtículoAttribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)10.1016/j.ijscr.2019.04.041
