Abnormal proteins have been known for some time to occur in sera from patients with multiple myeloma and other neoplasms of reticulo-endothelial cells, as well as macroglobulinaemia and cryoglobulinaemia (Adams, Alling, and Lawrence, 1949; Fudenberg and Kunkel, 1957; Azar, Hill, and Osserman, 1957; Putnam, 1960; Waldenstrom, 1961; Osserman and Takatsuki, 1963; Sunderman, 1964; Franklin and Lowe...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are uncommon mesenchymal spindle-cell or epithelioid neoplasms, located mainly with higher frequency in the stomach and small bowel. GISTs represent the majority of primary non-epithelial neoplasms of the digestive tract, most frequently expressing the KIT protein a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor for stem cell factor. Extra-gastrointestinal stromal...

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the most common bacterial infection worldwide and one of main etiological factors chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, stomach neoplasms. The mass application antibiotics without testing, especially during last years pandemic SARS-CoV-2, could lead to a dramatic increase in antibiotic resistance reduced effectiveness eradication regimens for H. infection. ...

Upper gastrointestinal tract (UGIT) comprises of esophagus, stomach and duodenum till the second part. Diseases affecting this region include inflammatory lesions, dysplasias, benign neoplasms malignancies. Endoscopic biopsy histopathological examination is considered as gold standard for disorders. aids in early diagnosis malignancy better patient management. Present study was conducted with a...

RATIONALE The synchronous occurrence of lung cancer in patients with gastric neoplasms is relatively uncommon, especially the cases of synchronous coexistence of small cell lung carcinoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the stomach. PATIENT CONCERNS We encountered a case of synchronous primary small cell lung carcinoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the stomach. A 63-year-old patie...

Gastric adenocarcinoma developing concomitantly with a gastric lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type is rare. Herein, we report a case with a synchronous primary gastric MALT lymphoma and an early adenocarcinoma of the stomach. A 72-year-old patient with initial presentation of weight loss was found with endoscopy to have a large tumor mass in the gastric body. Pathologi...

Multiple neoplastic lesions at separate gastrointestinal sites is rare with incidence of 0.7-11%. Majority primary neoplasms (MPN's) are double while triple/quadruple malignancies extremely a ratio 2.7:1. Patients periampullary having lesion in stomach or gastroesophageal junction rare. These patients requiring Whipple's pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) resection the adjoining for R0 Resection rare...

headings – Wistar Rats. Tumor markers, biological. Stomach neoplasms. abstRact Background: The N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) is a direct acting carcinogen, inducing tumors in several species in a variety of organs, including stomach of rats. Treatment of MNU in the drinking water for 25-42 weeks selectively induced glandular gastric carcinoma in F344 rats and C3H mice. Aim: To establish an exper...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the value of 18F-FDG uptake on screening PET/CT images for the prediction of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and chronic atrophic gastritis. METHODS Among subjects who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT for cancer screening from April 2005 to November 2015, PET/CT images were analyzed in 88 subjects who had gastrointestinal fiberscopy within 6...
