Gastric Polyps and Tumors
• Polyps, nodules or masses that project above the level of the surrounding mucosa
• Polyps may develop as a result of: – Epithelial or stromal cell hyperplasia – Inflammation– Ectopia or
– Neoplasia
May-2015-CSBRP
Gastric Polyps and Tumors
• Most common are inflammatory or hyperplastic polyps (70%)
• 50 and 60 years of age
• In association with chronic gastritis
Note: Because the risk of dysplasia correlates with size, polyps larger than 1.5 cm should be resected and examined histologically
May-2015-CSBRP
Morphology
Gross:• Less than 1 cm in diameter • Often multiple• Ovoid in shape and have a smooth surfaceMicroscopically, polyps have: • Irregular, cystically dilated, and elongated
foveolar glands • Lamina propria is typically edematous• Variable acute and chronic inflammation and• Surface ulceration may be present

FUNDIC GLAND POLYPS
• Sporadic
• FAP (familial adenomatous polyposis)
• Secondary to proton pump inhibitor Tx
• More common in females
• CF: Nausea, Vomiting or Epigastric pain

ADENOMAS
Definition (WHO):
“A circumscribed benign neoplasm composed of tubular and / or villous structures lined by dysplastic epithelium"
May-2015-CSBRP
ADENOMAS
• Uncommon neoplasms in the stomach• Common in Japanese • They are almost always antral
Background:– FAP syndrome– Sporadically, (chronic atrophic gastritis)
Clinical Features:
Asymptomatic - accidentally discovered during endoscopy
May-2015-CSBRP
ADENOMAS
Gross Findings:
• Sessile / Pedunculated
• Solitary / Multiple
May-2015-CSBRP
Sessile & Pedunculated
May-2015-CSBRP
ADENOMAS
Microscopic Findings: • Arise within the surface and superficial pit
epithelia• Abnormal neoplastic epithelium is usually
confined to the superficial mucosa • The mid-mucosa contains cysts • Architectural classification (WHO): Patterns:
– Tubular– Villous &– Tubulovillous

Dysplasias
Two types of dysplastic epithelium:
• The intestinal type
• The gastric type
Note: These types of dysplasias can occur in adenomas and also in the flat mucosa
May-2015-CSBRP
INTESTINAL TYPE DYSPLASIA LOW GRADE / HIGH GRADE
May-2015-CSBRP
GASTRIC TYPE DYSPLASIA LOW GRADE / HIGH GRADE
May-2015-CSBRP
Malignant potential of Adenomas
• Adenomas <1cm - no malignant potential
• Adenomas >4cms - high malignant potential
• Adenomas with prominent villous component – more malignant potential

Diagnosis:
• Supraclavicular mass - Virchow’s node
• Gatric primary (Gastric carcinoma)

May-2015-CSBRP
Carcinoma of the stomach is one of the most common
neoplasms in the world, and most are adenocarcinomas
May-2015-CSBRP
Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Def: Malignant epithelial tumor with glandular differentiation
May-2015-CSBRP
Incidence
• High in Japan (80 cases per 100,000), Costa Rica, Columbia, Chile, and Finland
• Very low in Thailand and many parts of Africa
May-2015-CSBRP
Pathogenesis
Dietary Factors:– High salt consumption – Low intake of fresh fruits / vegetables– Smoking / Alcohol– Nitrosamines– Trace elements: selenium, zinc, copper, iron, and
manganese (part of antioxidants)Genetic Factors • Blood group A • Gastric carcinomas display some of the same
genetic alterations observed in other carcinomas
May-2015-CSBRP
PathogenesisGastric carcinomas display some of the same genetic alterations
observed in other carcinomas:– mutations in CDH1, which encodes E-cadherin (50% of sporadic cases)– BRCA2 mutations – Microsatellite instability – p53 mutations – hypermethylation of several genes:
• TGFβRII• BAX• IGFRII and • p16/INK4a
• Tumor invasion and metastasis: The synchronous expression of EGF, TGF-alpha and ras p21
• Poorly differentiated gastric carcinomas resulting in linitis plastica: overexpression of TGF-beta, IGF, and PDGF

Pathogenesis
Predisposing Conditions:• H. pylori infection• Atrophic gastritis• Subtotal gastrectomy with gastrojejunal anastomosis• Immunodeficiency syndromes• Chronic gastric ulcers and • Menetrier's disease
Severe Atrophic Gastritis and Intestinal Metaplasia - by far the most important precursor lesions of gastric carcinoma
May-2015-CSBRP
Pathogenesis - H. pylori infection
May-2015-CSBRP
Pathogenesis - H. pylori infection
• Cag genes (IL-8 - severe gastritis)
• Vac A (epithelial cell damage)
• fldA gene (MALTOMA)
• H.pylori adhere to Lewis blood group antigen
May-2015-CSBRP
Clinical features
• Mean age of presentation is 55 years• M:F = 2:1• Pain abdomen, unrelieved by food• Anorexia• Weight loss• Gastric outlet obstruction
• Virchow's node • Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule

Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Two major subtypes: 1. Early gastric cancer and 2. Advanced gastric cancer
1. Early gastric carcinoma - which is confined to the mucosa and submucosa, with / without lymph node metastases
2. Advanced gastric cancers - cancers that have invaded into or beyond the muscularis propria, with / without lymph node metastases

• Although overall incidence of gastric adenocarcinoma is falling, cancer of the gastric cardia is on the rise
• This is probably related to:– Barrett esophagus, chronic GERD and – Obesity
May-2015-CSBRP
Classifications for the gross appearance of gastric carcinoma
• There are a number of classifications. The most widely adopted is that of Borrmann
• Gastric carcinomas are subdivided into four types:– Type I for the well-circumscribed polypoid lesions– Type II for polypoid tumors with marked central ulceration– Type III for the ulcerated tumors with infiltrative margins and– Type IV for the linitis plastica
• The main value of Borrmann's classification is that it eliminates the need of excessive verbal description of the gross appearance of the tumor

• The synchronous expression of EGF, TGF-alpha and ras p21 is associated with tumor invasion and metastasis, and overexpression of TGF-beta, IGF, and PDGF is associated with collagen synthesis in poorly differentiated gastric carcinomas resulting in linitis plastica .
