[A case of gastric carcinoid associated with multiple early gastric cancers and atypical epithelium]
Abstract:
A 69-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of the sensation of abdominal fullness and tarry stool. X-ray and endoscopic examination revealed a gastric tumor measuring 6.5 X 7.5 cm in the antrum along the greater curvature. Histologically, the tumor was diagnosed as carcinoid; five lesions of early gastric cancer and one lesion of atypical epithelium were also detected. Through 1982, 24 Japanese patients with gastric carcinoid associated with gastric cancer have been reported.
