Helicobacter pylori-negative Gastric Adenocarcinoma Mimicking Verrucous Gastritis in the Antrum: A Case Report and Literature Review
A 46-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the examination of a flat elevated lesion with an erosion-like depression, located on the greater curvature of the antrum. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed. Histological findings of the resected specimen demonstrated a well-differentia...

Sumario: | A 46-year-old man was referred to our hospital for the examination of a flat elevated lesion with an erosion-like depression, located on the greater curvature of the antrum. Endoscopic submucosal dissection was performed. Histological findings of the resected specimen demonstrated a well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma with a diameter of 12 mm. No atrophy was observed in the tumor-adjacent mucosa. Serum Helicobacter pylori antibody estimation and (13)C-urea breath tests yielded negative results. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for both gastric mucin and intestinal mucin. The final diagnosis was well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma with a gastrointestinal phenotype that originated in mucosa uninfected by H. pylori. |
