Alpha Fetoprotein-Secreting Gastric Cancer in the Setting of Chronic Hepatitis B: The Role of Endoscopy
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) is a common tumor marker for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We report a unique case of an AFP-producing gastric cancer in an elderly man with known chronic hepatitis B (HBV) and a markedly elevated AFP. Thorough diagnostic imaging failed to reveal a HCC, but a gastric adenoc...
