MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PERFORATED GASTRIC CANCER
Kharkiv National Medical University, Kharkiv Medical Academy of Post−graduate Education
Abstract. Morphological characteristics of gastric cancer complicated by perforation were investigated in 44 patients. All patients underwent urgent surgery. The biopsy samples obtained at FGDS, laparoscopy of the patients as well as operation material were investigated. The findings demonstrated prevalence of the following histological signs of the tumors: nondifferentiated cancer, poorly differentiated carcinomas and cricoic cell cancer. It was established that poorly differentiated tumors were accompanied by intravascular invasion promoting development of emboli and destruction of the tumor tissue and gastric wall. The urgency of the problem of perforated gastric cancer requires its further investigation.
Key words: perforated gastric cancer, biopsy, morphological investigation, gastroscopy, adenocarcinoma, poorly differentiated cancer, cricoic cell cancer.
