BACKGROUND Gastric cancer with synchronous liver metastasis remains a clinical treatment challenge. There has been a longstanding debate on the question whether surgical resection could be beneficial to long-term survival. This study is to investigate the effectiveness and prognostic factors of combined curative resection of the stomach and liver lesions in gastric cancer patients with synchron...

Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) was first proposed by Wothley et al. in 2012 as a rare familial gastric cancer syndrome associated with an autosomal dominant form inheritance. GAPPS is characterized basal gland from hilum to body stomach. Li 2016 showed that cause disease point mutation promotor 1B region APC gene, genetic testing used confirm diagnosis. If ...

Abstract Background The optimal treatment in patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal disease remains controversial. Some guidelines indicate palliative only, while others consider surgical case of positive lavage cytology (CY+) or limited disease. Here, we analyzed the role cancer, prognostic relevance response to neoadjuvant therapy. Methods In this retrospective cohort analysis, adenocarc...

BACKGROUND Amputation neuromas (ANs) are reactive hyperplasia of nerve tissues that occur after a trauma or surgery involving the peripheral nerves. Only two previous reports of ANs occurring around the stomach and post gastrectomy have been reported. We report the case of a patient with AN near the remnant stomach who underwent distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. CASE PRESENTATION A 76-ye...

Background The stomach is an uncommon site for metastatic carcinoma. Approximately 6% of renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) may metastasize to the stomach. The majority of the reported metastatic RCCs in the stomach presented as large masses or ulcers greater than a centimeter in size. It is very rare to encounter metastatic RCC as a solitary small polypoid gastric mucosal lesion. Methods In this s...
