The Many Faces of Intestinal Tract Gastric Heterotopia; A Series of Four Cases Highlighting Clinical and Pathological Heterogeneity

We present a series of four cases, two male and two female patients with age range of 31-82 year, found in the duodenum, jejunum, and transverse colon. The most common and rather unusual clinical presentation was iron deficiency anemia, seen in three cases, while one patient presented with abdominal pain. Endoscopically two cases were visualized as pedunculated polyps and two as sessile/plaques like lesions.
