내시경검사상 조기위암에서 진해위암으로 이행된 1예 보고 = A Case of Advanced Gastric Cancer, Developed from Endoscopic Diagnosis of Early Gastric Cancer

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Early gastric cancer is defined carcinoma that is limited to the gastric mucosa and submucosa and that does not extend into the muscularis propria. The development and widespread use of upper gnstrointestinal endoscopy with biopsy and cytology have enhanced our ability to make early diagnosis of gastrie carcinoma. Gastric cancinoma is being diagnosed at an ealry stage aad the survival rates for these patients are significantly greater than those with advanced gastric carcinoma. These ealry lesion can be cured in over 90% of the cases. In fact, it is almost impossible to follow up cases of early gastric cancer without surgical treatment. We report a case developed advanced gastric carcinoma 34 months after initial endoseopic diagnosis of early gastric cancer. A, 48-year-old woman was diagnosed early gaatrie cancer on June 21, 1985 by endoscopy. Proper surgical intetvention was not carried out due to her liver cirrhosis. The follow-up endoscopic examination was done on March 16, 1988. The gastric cancer looked like an advanced stomach and extended to other site.
