Multicentric early gastric carcinoma mimicking type I (10 years after B-I-surgery).
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.
