Some gastric epithelial neoplasms show predominant chief cell differentiation (oxyntic gland neoplasms), in which the entity of “gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type” was firstly designated, whereas a possible more aggressive subgroup “gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland mucosa type” (GA-FGM) was subsequently proposed. However, the histopathologic progression mode of these neoplasms has not been sufficiently reported. In this article, we describe a case of GA-FGM in which we could observe its progression during 5 years. The tumor was removed by endoscopic submucosal dissection 5 years after the first biopsy, which had already shown a feature of oxyntic gland neoplasm. During the follow-up period, the endoscopy revealed little change in the tumor appearance. However, the histology of endoscopic submucosal dissection showed submucosal extension with its histological progression. Besides, other oxyntic gland neoplasms of the stomach were observed metachronously or synchronously, giving an implication about a common pathogenetic basis of these lesions.

Gastric adenocarcinoma has a high recurrence rate. The goal of this study was to determine the timing and pattern of recurrence after gastrectomy. A retrospective review was performed of patients with gastric adenocarcinoma having curative partial or total gastrectomy with R0/D2 lymph node resection from 1999 to 2013. Follow-up included CT scans of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis at 3-month intervals for the first three years, at 6-month intervals for the next two years, and annually thereafter. There were 62 patients, 38 males and 24 females, with a median age of 65 years. Median follow-up was 29 months and recurrence was identified in 21 per cent of patients. Median time to recurrence was 12 months and 92 per cent of recurrences occurred within two years. The last recurrence was identified at 34 months. Abdominal CT scan identified all patients with recurrence, although some patients had disease elsewhere in addition to the abdominal disease. There were no extra-abdominal isolated recurrences. In conclusion, recurrence after complete resection for gastric adenocarcinoma typically occurs within the first two years, and can be found by abdominal CT scan. Close cancer follow-up appears unnecessary after three years because all recurrences were identified within 34 months of resection.

169 Background: The primary endpoint of this study was to know the incidence and treatment of gastric carcinoma in our area. Other secondary endpoints were percentage of treated patients, overall survival (OS), survival in subgroups, and more frequent treatments. Methods: Since 2010 to 2013 all the patients diagnosed with metastatic gastric adenocarcinoma and treated at the hospital Parc Taulí from Sabadell were registered. The clinical information was compiled and analyzed. Survivals curves were determined with Kaplan-Meier functions Results: 168 patients were studied, with 79 metastatic (47%). 56% men and median age 67 years. Localizations were gastric body 52%, gastro-esophageal junction 20%, and antrum 25%. OS of the series was 5,05 months (95% CI, 2,99-7,10). 60% of the patients were treated with first line chemotherapy (CT). From them, 42% had a second line and 25% a third line. DFS were respectively 6,62 months (4,06-9,17), 4,29 months (2,28-6,30), and 2,88 months (1,12-4,64) for every line of treatment. OS of the patients that received chemotherapy was 9.7 months (6,40-13,00). CT more used in first line were triplets of fluropyrimidines, platinum and taxanes, in 45% (21 patients). Also just fluoropyrimidines and platinum without taxanes, in 38%. As a second line the predominant CT is also platinum and fluoropyrimidines (37%), and irinotecan (30%). In third line, 50% are combinations based on irinotecan. Conclusions: The OS of the patients who received CT is significantly prolonged respect the ones who didn’t. The data obtained matches the data already published in the literature, even the more frequent chemotherapy.

152b Background: Although two prospective studies reported that negative H pylori is associated with good prognosis in Western countries, these results are not generally acceptable due to regional differences in H pylori virulence and incidence of gastric cancer. Here, we prospectively assessed the correlation between H pylori status of patients who underwent curative resection for treatment of gastric adenocarcinoma and their prognosis in Korea, where H pylori is highly prevalent in the population. Methods: Between 2006 and 2007, 192 patients who had undergone curative resection for treatment of gastric adenocarcinoma were prospectively enrolled. Of these patients, 18 patients were excluded due to inexact evaluation of H pylori status, and 174 patients were finally analyzed. Serologic testing for H pylori was assessed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit for IgG, and histological presence was identified using Giemsa stain. Results: Of 174 patients, 111 patients (63.8%) who showed both serologically and histologically positive results were confirmed as having positive H pylori infection. H pylori status was not correlated with overall or disease-free survival. In term of patients who were diagnosed with AJCC stage III or IV, disease-free survival of patients with positive H pylori status was a significant predicting factor for recurrence longer than that of negative patients (p = 0.019). Negative H pylori status became a predicting factor for recurrence in multivariable analysis (RR = 2.724, 95% C.I.: 1.192-6.228). Conclusions: H pylori status did not show correlation with clinicopathologic factors of gastric adenocarcinoma in Korea. However, negative H pylori may be a predictive factor for recurrence in patients diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma of advanced status. Therefore, in H pylori endemic areas, patients diagnosed with locally advanced gastric cancer accompanied by negative H pylori status should be considered for an aggressive treatment strategy and close follow-up. In addition, correlation in an early stage should be confirmative through the results of longer follow-up. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract Background Whether or not the use of metformin decreases the risk of gastric adenocarcinoma is unclear. Methods This was a population-based cohort study in 2005–2015. Associations between metformin use and gastric non-cardia and cardia adenocarcinomas were examined within two cohorts; a diabetes cohort of participants using anti-diabetes medications, and a matched cohort of common-medication users, where metformin non-users were frequency matched (10:1) with metformin users for sex and age. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analyses provided hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusting for sex, age, calendar year, comorbidity, Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment, use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or aspirin and use of statins. Results During the follow-up for a median of 5.8 years, 892 (0.1%) participants in the diabetes cohort and 6395 (0.1%) participants in the matched cohort of common-medication users developed gastric adenocarcinoma. Metformin users had no significantly decreased risk of gastric non-cardia adenocarcinoma (diabetes cohort: HR 0.93, 95% CI 0.78–1.12; matched cohort: HR 1.30, 95% CI 1.18–1.42) or cardia adenocarcinoma (diabetes cohort: HR 1.49, 95% CI 1.09–2.02; matched cohort: HR 1.58, 95% CI 1.38–1.81) compared with non-users in both cohorts. Conclusions This cohort study with <10 years of follow-up suggests metformin use may not prevent gastric adenocarcinoma.

An extremely rare case report of HIV-associated gastric adenocarcinoma surgically treated in the year 1998 in a 37-year-old male patient already HIV positive for 10 years, with a complete post-surgery disease-free follow-up of eight years, is described. An international literature search allowed us to report the available details of the only nine cases of HIV-associated gastric cancer yet published. Seven occurred prior to the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and were burdened by a rapid disease evolution, while only two patients were reported after the introduction of HAART (like ours) and obtained surgical cure. Detailed data regarding complications, sequelae and overall survival are not given. Notably, even four of the nine published reports came from Japan, and an early disease development was usual (37–50 years of age at diagnosis). Due to its relevant differential diagnosis implications with many other HIV-related gastrointestinal disturbances caused by functional and organic diseases (drug-related disturbances, HIV infection itself, opportunistic infections, and Kaposi's sarcoma and malignant lymphomas being the most frequent disorders) and the possibility of maintaining an adequate life-expectancy when diagnosis and aggressive treatment are not delayed, gastric cancer should be considered carefully by all clinicians dealing with HIV disease.
