GASTRIC DIVERTICULA ON THE GREATER CURVATURE (Abstract): Gastric diverticula are extremely rare in the surgical pathology and is usually asymptomatic. Their discovery is in most cases incidentally, on radiographic examination or autopsy. The most frequent localization is on the posterior wall of the cardia and on the lesser curvature of the stomach. Symptomatic gastric diverticula are rare, mai...

Gastric cancer was the fourth frequent cancer worldwide, and it was the subsequent most widespread basis of fatality from cancer. Gastric cancer is a multifactorial neoplastic pathology numbering among its causes both and genetic predisposing factors (Dikshit et al., 2011). Quite a lot of environmental factors are supposed to play a part in the development of gastric cancer such as diet rich in...

OBJECTIVES Gastric colonisation with intestinal flora (IF) has been shown to promote Helicobacter pylori (Hp)-associated gastric cancer. However, it is unknown if the mechanism involves colonisation with specific or diverse microbiota secondary to gastric atrophy. DESIGN Gastric colonisation with Altered Schaedler's flora (ASF) and Hp were correlated with pathology, immune responses and mRNA ...

OBJECTIVES The term heterotopia, in pathology, refers to the presence of normal tissues at foreign sites. Gastric heterotopia has been reported anywhere in the gastrointestinal tract. However, the presence of gastric heterotopia in the rectum is very rare. METHODS We, here, report a rare case of a localized 2-cm area of cratered mucosa with heaped-up borders in the rectum of a 51-year-old, as...

OBJECTIVE High levels of TGF-β1 and enhanced TGF-β1 receptor signaling are related to the pathology of gastric cancer. This effect is caused by oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation products. The aim of this study was to investigate the levels of TGF-β1 and lipid peroxidation products in gastric cancer patients and their correlation with pathologic stage. MATERIAL AND METHODS Lipid peroxida...

Objective: Gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM) is considered as a predisposing lesion for the development of gastric cancer and isrecommended to be kept under surveillance in designated intervals. We aimed assess natural course GIM large Turkishcohort.Materials Methods: retrospectively reviewed findings from pathology reports biopsies conducted between 2011 to2018 reveal patients diagnosed with...
