intestinal and stomach tumors Flashcards
3 stromal tumors names
schwanomas
leionomas
fibromas
two types of bening stomach tumors
polyps,
stromal (mesenchymal)
hyperplasted pulp etiology
APC gene mutetion
chronic gastritis
which type of tumor apears at 20% of post gastrectomy due to carcinoma?
hyperplasted polyp
where do fundic gland polyps are located in most cases?
which type of cells do they contain?
fundus and body of stomach
parietal, cheif and foveolar mucus cells.
etiology of fundic gland polyps
sporadic
PPI usage
etiology of gastric adenocarcinoma
APC gene mutation
chronic gastritis
5 general characteristics of adenoma
50-60's variations between population 3:1 male to female adenocarcinoma risk corralates eith polyp size greater risk of cancer (30%)
2 histologycal caracteristics of adenoma
solitary antral lessions
dysplasia (low to high grade)
most prevalent malignant tumors of the stomach
carcinoma 90-95% lymphoma neuroendocrine malignant stromal (from most prevalent to least)
etiology of gastric carcinoma
malnutrition smoking socioeconomical status chronic inflammation with H.pylori partial gastrectomy (reflux of bilious, alkaline intestinal fluid)
pathogenesis of gastric carcinoma?
mostly not inherited
familial: CDH1 gene mutation which encodes to E-cadherins
TP53 gene mutation
pathogenesis of Diffuse gastric cancer (carcinoma)
loss of E-cadherins
pathogenesis of intestinal gastric cancer (carcinoma)
GOF- wat pathway
LOF- APC gene
GOF- beta catenin gene
favored location of gastric carcinoma
antropyloric, lesser curvature
