[Early carcinoma of the gastric remnant: pathological features relating to the interval between the initial and second surgery].
Twenty cases of early carcinoma of the gastric remnant have been treated at our hospital and examined clinico-pathologically. In 11 cases, the interval after the initial gastrectomy, due to the gastric carcinoma, was done was short compared with length of the interval of 9 cases after a gastrectomy for a benign gastric disease. There were two types of gastric remnant carcinomas in cases in which the interval extended 10 years. The first type developed at the site of the gastro-intestinal anastomosis, especially when the anastomosis was found to be joined by the Billroth II method, and the carcinoma was associated with a gastritis cystica polyposa (GCP). The other type showed a polypoid appearance except for the stomal site.
