ABSTRACT
We report a 14-year-old boy with alpha-fetoprotein-producing gastric cancer (AFPGC) who was found with ruptured metastatic tumor in the liver. AFPGC is exceedingly rare in pediatric age. It often shows metastases to the liver and should be included in differential diagnoses of liver tumors with increased serum AFP.
