Summary | The widespread use of Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy in recent years has reduced the H. pylori infection rate, indicating that gastric cancer cases diagnosed in the future may be H. pylori-naïve. The typical endoscopic presentation of signet-ring cell carcinoma, which accounts for the majority of H. pylori-naïve gastric cancer cases, is a discolored, flat, or depressed lesion; it is rarely presented as an elevated lesion. In this study, we treated a patient with elevated signet-ring cell carcinoma in an H. pylori-naïve stomach. Histopathological testing after endoscopic submucosal dissection showed proliferation of fibromuscular tissue in the tumor, which may have caused the formation of the elevated lesion. |
