Case description

A 39 year-old man, who was under medical control in a national institution for more than 4 years because of epigastric discomfort, but no upper endoscopy was perform. When he asked for help in our clinic he had already lost a weight of 20 pounds. We performed an upper endoscopy and an advanced adenocarcinoma was found. It infiltrated the antrum, body and the fundus along of the minor curvature. We detected a gastric adenocarcinoma to his father 1991 at the antrum. His father died 10 years later at age 85, but for a different disease. His mother died of gastric cancer many years ago. We found two nephew had Advanced Gastric Carcinoma recently.
