10 YEARS AFTER B-I-partial gastrectomy for a proven benign gastric ulcer a multicentric early gastric carcinoma type II b, c was detected by endoscopy and histology. This early carcinoma differed from published cases in respect of its macroscopic classification, localization and expansion. The carcinoma situated next to the anastomosis invaded the duodenal mucosa. It also invaded a polypoid fold caused by the previous surgery, thus imitating an early gastric carcinoma type I.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
