Inflammatory fibroid polyps (IFPs) are rare submucosal lesions that usually arise in the stomach. It represents 0.1% of all gastric polypoid lesions and are frequently asymptomatic. It's usually revealed by an abdominal pain. Gastrointestinal bleeding can occur when the polyp is ulcerated. We report a case of a 72-year-old female with an IFP of the prepyloric region. The head of the polyp was thirty-five millimeters in diameter. It was revealed by an upper gastrointestinal bleeding and epigastric pain. An endoscopic resection was performed.
