Abstract

We present a rare case that showed the coexistence of gastric cancer and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in Helicobacter pylori-naive stomach. A 72-year-old man was followed up after surgery for epithelial carcinoma of the glottis at the Department of Otolaryngology. He underwent an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for an abnormal PET-CT accumulation, which revealed gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type in the gastric fundus and MALT lymphoma in the upper gastric body. Hence, we performed an endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric cancer and diagnosed gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type derived from a hamartomatous–inverted polyp. Subsequently, Gastric MALT lymphoma was treated with radiation therapy because the API2-MALT1 gene was positive and the Helicobacter pylori infection was negative. A complete response was observed. Even in Hp-naive stomachs, cases such as the present case are complicated by special types of gastric cancer and MALT lymphoma, and endoscopic examination should be performed with these diseases in mind.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
