RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of our study was to report the radiographic findings of biopsy-proven lymphoid hyperplasia of the stomach in five adult patients. CONCLUSION: Lymphoid hyperplasia of the stomach is characterized by distinctive findings on double-contrast upper gastrointestinal tract barium examinations; all five patients had innumerable tiny (1--3 mm in diameter) round frequently umbilicated nodules that carpeted the mucosa of the gastric antrum or antrum and body. Three of these five patients had associated Helicobacter pylori gastritis. The diagnosis of gastric lymphoid hyperplasia, therefore, can be suggested on the basis of the radiographic findings.

A device which permits an upper-extremity amputee person to play golf is described. The device is interchangeable with a hook or hand, fits into a standard prosthetic arm, and can be used by a right or left above-elbow amputee golf player. It is inexpensive, weights under a pound, and can be readily made in a machine shop.
