In this study the Authors describe two cases of hepatoid adenocarcinoma of the stomach: one is characterized by the presence of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) high levels of the serum both pre and post-operating and by the very positive response to the adjuvant chemotherapy (how the return to the normality of such values demonstrates). The other is instead characterized by the presence of post operating hepatic metastasis, event which is very frequent in this kind of neoplasm, but presents many problems concerning the differential histological diagnostics with the primitive hepatocarcinoma (problems which are nowadays not completely solved). Moreover the Authors relate to this study the revision of the international literature of the main characteristics and of prognosis of this particular and rare neoplasm.

Abstract

In this study the Authors describe two cases of hepatoid adenocarcinoma of the stomach: one is characterized by the presence of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) high levels of the serum both pre and post-operating and by the very positive response to the adjuvant chemotherapy (how the return to the normality of such values demonstrates). The other is instead characterized by the presence of post operating hepatic metastasis, event which is very frequent in this kind of neoplasm, but presents many problems concerning the differential histological diagnostics with the primitive hepatocarcinoma (problems which are nowadays not completely solved). Moreover the Authors relate to this study the revision of the international literature of the main characteristics and of prognosis of this particular and rare neoplasm.
