N2  - In the stomach, benign tumors are not common. Even when they do occur, they are usually considered as premalignant lesions with a risk of transformation to malignant ones. Tubulovillous adenomas of the stomach are rare. However, these tumors are being diagnosed with increasing frequency due to more widespread use of endoscopy. We present an unusual case of a large tubulovillous adenoma of the stomach. The partial gastrectomy specimen showed a large polypoidal growth at the greater curvature of the stomach. The patient is symptom-free, after 2 years of follow-up.
