    Summary

    Diagnosing early gastric carcinoma can be challenging, as symptoms often mimic benign ulcers. Prompt diagnosis and surgical treatment lead to successful outcomes with no recurrence in this study.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Oncology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Early gastric carcinoma is defined by tumor invasion depth into the mucosa and submucosa.
    • Clinical presentation and initial diagnostic imaging frequently resemble benign gastric ulcers.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and patient prognosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report on seven cases of early gastric carcinoma.
    • To highlight diagnostic challenges associated with this condition.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of surgical management for early gastric carcinoma.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of seven patient cases diagnosed with early gastric carcinoma.
    • Analysis of diagnostic methods including barium meal studies and fiberoptic endoscopy with biopsy.
    • Surgical treatment via partial gastrectomy.

    Main Results:

    • Barium meal studies suggested malignancy in only two of seven patients; five were interpreted as benign.
    • Fiberoptic endoscopy showed suspicious or benign appearances in three cases each.
    • Biopsy results confirmed carcinoma in all six cases where endoscopy was performed.
    • All seven patients underwent partial gastrectomy with no observed recurrence at up to 36 months follow-up.

    Conclusions:

    • Early gastric carcinoma can present with symptoms and imaging findings similar to benign ulcers, posing diagnostic difficulties.
    • Fiberoptic endoscopy with biopsy is essential for accurate diagnosis.
    • Partial gastrectomy is an effective treatment for early gastric carcinoma, yielding favorable outcomes.
