ABSTRACT
Neuronal intestinal dysplasia in pediatric patients has similar clinical symptoms and often similar radiologic findings to those of Hirschsprung's disease. Yet neuronal intestinal dysplasia shows hyperplasia of the myenteric plexus for the pathology, and it requires different treatment compared with Hirschsprung disease. This disease has been reported many times in Europe but, to date, only one case has been reported in the radiologic literatures in Korea. We report here on a case of neuronal intestinal dysplasia that involved the entire colon in a two-month-old boy, and we include the radiographic findings.

Hyperplastic polyps are common gastric lesions that are characterized by nonneoplastic epithelial hyperplasia. However, to our knowledge, there are no reports of a hyperplastic polyp arising from an endoscopic mucosectomy site of early gastric cancer. We describe the CT findings with a histopathology correlation in a case of a hyperplastic polyp arising from a mucosectomy site that mimicked polypoid gastric cancer.
