Serrated adenoma is often found in the colorectum, but seldom found in stomach. We reported a case of a 70-year-old male with gastroscopy showed a elevated lesion with central depression on the gastric body, with clear margins. Background consistent with bile reflux gastritis. Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was performed. Histopathology confirmed a gastric serrated adenoma. This study reports the first documented case of gastric serrated adenoma arising in a background of bile reflux gastritis, suggesting bile reflux may be a potential risk factor for gastric serrated adenoma development.
