ABSTRACT
A 67-year-old man had a gastric polyp diagnosed on screening. Atrophic changes in the upper gastric mucosa were seen on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. In addition, endoscopy revealed in the middle area of the stomach wall a 10 mm polyp that was diagnosed as a carcinoid tumor through biopsy. Blood serum gastrin was elevated at 2,800 pg/mL.We diagnosed a Rindi Type 1 gastric carcinoid. The patient was planned to be treated with surgical laparoscopy assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG); however, the procedure was changed to intraoperative laparoscopy assisted total gastrectomy (LATG). Chromogranin-positive tumor pathological findings in the mucous membrane submucosa and in the muscularis mucosae endocrine cell micronest (ECM) were widespread. There was no obvious vascular invasion. After the surgery, the serum gastrin level normalized and the patient remains alive.
