Adenocarcinoma originado do epitélio glandular do estômago. O adenocarcinoma gástrico é principalmente uma doença de indivíduos mais velhos. Ela se desenvolve mais comumente após um longo período de gastrite atrófica e está fortemente associada à infecção por Helicobacter pylori. A falta de sintomas precoces muitas vezes atrasa o diagnóstico de câncer gástrico. A maioria dos pacientes apresenta tumores avançados com baixas taxas de cura. Microscopicamente, dois tipos histológicos importantes de adenocarcinoma gástrico são reconhecidos: o tipo intestinal e o tipo difuso. O prognóstico geral dos adenocarcinomas gástricos é ruim, mesmo nos pacientes que recebem uma ressecção curativa. | |||
