Abstract

A case is reported of benign lymphoid hyperplasia in the stomach and proximal duodenum in a 12-year-old girl. This condition is characterized by an abundance of lymphoid follicles in the mucosa which produces the characteristic radiological and endoscopic appearance of mucosal nodularity. It is rare in the stomach and rare in children. The immunoglobulins were normal in our patient.
