Stomach Polyps: High Treatment Standards at Top Ichilov
Stomach polyps are treated using exclusively modern methods and medications, taking into account the overall condition of the patient and the specifics of their disease. Treatment of stomach polyps in Israel is carried out strictly according to an individually developed program and in accordance with international treatment protocols.
- Stomach Polyps: Medical Treatment in Israel. Currently, stomach polyps are not treated with specially developed medications for this pathology. Anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs are used to suppress the growth of Helicobacter infection to prevent complications and further disease progression.
- Stomach Polyps: Surgical Treatment in Israel. The scope and nature of the operation depend on the size of the polyp and its location in the stomach. The operation to remove a stomach polyp is primarily a minimally invasive endoscopic intervention. Small stomach polyps are removed using endoscopic methods: modern endoscopes are used to remove stomach polyps while simultaneously coagulating vessels in the surgical field to prevent bleeding. The methods of polyp removal used at Top Ichilov include electrosurgical excision with electrocoagulation by capturing the polyp with a loop with electrodes, photocoagulation, and medical polypectomy by injecting 96% alcohol or 1-2% acetic acid into the stomach polyps. Large stomach polyps, as well as polyps complicated by bleeding, necrosis, strangulation of stomach tissues, and the development of gastric obstruction, are removed along with the affected part of the digestive organ.
- Patient Monitoring. If stomach polyps do not require surgical treatment or cannot be removed, the patient is placed under observation with periodic esophagogastroscopy to timely detect signs of polyp degeneration or growth, as well as the development of complications. Additionally, patients with polyps are prescribed a gentle diet and advised to exclude irritating foods from their diet.

Stomach Polyps in Israel: Diagnosis at Top Ichilov
Effective treatment of stomach polyps in Israel begins with an accurately established diagnosis of "stomach polyps." Diagnostic studies at Top Ichilov are conducted in a short time – within 3 days – and at a very high level and quality, utilizing the latest advancements in medical technology.
In the CIS, diagnosing polyps is complicated due to the lack of modern equipment and doctors of corresponding high qualifications.
Day One – Initial Consultation with a Leading Gastroenterologist-Surgeon
The first day at the clinic for the patient begins with an appointment with a doctor who conducts a thorough examination of the patient, evaluates the results of previous examinations, studies the medical and life history, compiles a new medical history in Hebrew, and refers the patient for diagnostic examination.
Day Two – Diagnostic Procedures
- X-ray. X-ray examination using a contrast agent allows for the detection of the location of the polyp by changes in the filling of the digestive organ and the disruption of its wall contractions at the site of the polyp's localization.
- Fibrogastroduodenoscopy. This examination is performed using the latest models of endoscopes. During fibrogastroduodenoscopy, stomach polyps are identified on the mucous membrane, and therapeutic and diagnostic procedures – biopsy and endoscopic removal of the polyp – are performed.
- Biopsy. A tissue sample is taken from the suspicious area of the mucous membrane for histological examination to accurately determine the type of neoplasm and its nature.
- Methods for Diagnosing Helicobacter Infection. To exclude or confirm the presence of Helicobacter infection and identify mucosal damage, urease tests, PCR diagnostics, and enzyme immunoassays are conducted.
Day Three – Medical Council
Based on the diagnostic results, the medical council outlines a treatment plan and scheme for the patient individually. A group of doctors – a gastroenterologist, surgeon, radiologist – collectively makes decisions and monitors the implementation of the treatment program, making necessary adjustments as needed.
