Key Words	Gastric cancer; Gastric precancerous conditions; Gastric epithelium; Diagnosis; Histopathology
Core Tip	We provided a detailed overview of gastric epithelial organization and its renewal and reviewed precancerous conditions including chronic atrophic gastritis, spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia, intestinal metaplasia, foveolar hyperplasia and gastric hyperplastic polyps derived from gastric epithelium based on histological perspective, covering their epidemiology, clinical management and advances, histological structure, causes and potential origin and reversibility. The origins, processes and reversibility are the main controversial topics. More clinical and basic research on molecular alterations of these gastric lesions may shed light on the controversies.
