[Gastric carcinoma with a lymphoid stroma].
Carcinomas with lymphoid stroma have been described in different locations: breast, uterine cervix, nasopharynx, esophagus and stomach. These neoplasms have a better prognosis probably due to the lymphoid reaction that takes place in the tumoral stroma. For this reason many authors prefer to consider this entity separate from the rest of gastric carcinomas. We present a case of gastric carcinoma with lymphoid stroma and neuroendocrine features. Such association has not been previously described in the Spanish literature.
