It accounts for less than 1% of all gastric cancers. In this report, we describe our pathological findings along with a review of the literature to improve our understanding of the disease and reduce misdiagnosis, as well as to provide evidence for its treatment and prognosis. A 49-year-old male patient was admitted to our hospital (Dalian Municipal Central Hospital, Dalian, China) with a complaint of epigastric pain that had persisted for half a month. Physical examination, regular laboratory blood tests, and computed tomography revealed no obvious abnormalities. Gastroscopy revealed ulcers in the lower part of the stomach, and pathological assessment revealed adenocarcinoma. Radical gastrectomy was performed, and the folinic acid, fluorouracil, oxaliplatin (FOLFOX) chemotherapy regimen was administered postoperatively. Pathological assessment of the mass revealed a protruding tumor measuring 1.5 × 1.5 × 0.7 cm in the lower part of the stomach. The tumor infiltrated through the full wall of the stomach. This was confirmed by immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for cytokeratin (CK)(+), villin (-), p63 (++), and high-molecular-weight CK (+++). The patient remains alive with no recurrence more than seven years after surgery. Primary GASC is a rare malignant neoplasm. The diagnostic criteria for GASC mainly depend on the clinical, radiographic, and histopathological findings. Pathological assessment and IHC staining can be utilized to confirm the diagnosis. Radical gastrectomy plus postoperative chemotherapy containing the FOLFOX regimen is effective for treating GASC and might contribute to long-term survival.展开更多
