Stomach is an important organ for pathologists. It is often inflamed and may be a site that cancer arises from. Gastroenterologists often biopsy the organ. Surgeon take-out the organ. It connects the esophagus to the duodenum. An introduction to gastrointestinal pathology is in the gastrointestinal pathology article.
Normal stomach
Gross anatomy
- Cardia - first part of the stomach; joins with esophagus.
- Fundus - superior portion - not attached directly to the esophagus.
- Body - contains parietal cells.
- Pylorus - distal (think pyloric stenosis); it joins with the duodenum.
- AKA antrum.

Microscopic
Foveolar cells versus intestinal goblet cells
- Intestinal goblet cells - clear mucin.
- Foveolar cells - eosinophilic contents.
Stomach versus intestine
A tabular comparison:[1]
| Feature | Intestine | Stomach |
|---|---|---|
| Spacing | Goblets cell - spaced | Foveolar cells - beside one another |
| Morphology of epithelial cells | columnar | tall columnar (Champagne flute) |
| Vesicle at luminal surface | touching/small opening | wide open |
| PAS-D | -ve (???) | +ve[2] |
| Villin stain[3][4] | +ve | -ve |
| Images | Tubular adenoma - goblet cells on right of image (WC) |
Gastric biopsy (microscopy-uk.org.uk), Stomach with cancer - PAS (WC), Stomach (WC) |
Notes:
- Intraepithelial lymphocytes in the gastric mucosa have a clear halo around 'em.[5]
- Memory device: Folveolar cells have friends, i.e. they are close to other foveolar cells.
Gastric antrum versus gastric body
| Cell | Body | Antrum | Histology | Image |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Parietal cell | abundant | few or none | parietal cells: intensely eosinophilic cytoplasm |
|
| Chief cell | present | absent | chief cells: basophilic cytoplasm, IHC: +ve for pepsinogen I |
|
| G cell | absent | present | fried egg appearance (clear cytoplasm, round nucleus); look at high power - usu. middle 1/3 of gland,[6] IHC: +ve for gastrin. |
|
| Surface | flat | blunted villi | antrum is somewhat duodenum-like |
|
| Gastric glands / mucosa |
thick | thin | not so useful for discrimination |
body - thick, body & antrum |
Notes:
- G cells may superficially resemble intraepithelial lymphocytes.
- G cell nucleus is usu. perfectly round and slightly larger (diameter of 12 micrometers?) than a lymphocyte nucleus (diameter ~ 9-10 micrometers?).

Introduction
Useful stains for stomach
- Cresyl violet stain[7] - used to find H. pylori.[8]
- Alcian blue stain - used to find mucin[9] which is present in intestinal metaplasia
Things to look for...
- Parietal cells (indicate you're in the body of the stomach) - pink (eosinophilic) cytoplasm.
- Lack of parietal cells -- DDx: Bx of antrum (pylorus), Bx of cardia, pernicious anemia.
- Goblet cells = intestinal metaplasia.
- Architectural distortion of gastric glands - suspect cancer.
- Signet ring cells = (usually) gastric carcinoma.
- Can be very easy to miss in some biopsies.
- Inflammation + small bacteria = suspect H. pylori gastritis.

Gastric adenocarcinoma
General
Epidemiology:
- Prognosis is often poor as it is discovered at a late stage.
- Higher prevalence in countries in the far east (e.g. Japan) - thought to be environmental, e.g. diet.
Risk factors:
- Associated with helicobacter infections, i.e. Helicobacter gastritis.
- Alcohol - heavy use.[46]
- Genetic syndromes - see hereditary gastric cancer.
Note:
- Possible association with tobacco use - dependent on the study.[47]
Treatment:
- Surgical excision.
- Proximal tumours may require a complete gastrectomy as the stomach is innervated from its proximal part.
Classification
- Two different classification schemes.
- Lauren[48] - two types:
- Intestinal type (mass forming).
- Diffuse type (infiltrative).
- WHO classification - 6 subtypes for adenocarcinoma:[49]
- Papillary carcinoma.
- Tubular carcinoma.
- Mucinous carcinoma.
- Signet-ring carcinoma.
- Undifferentiated carcinoma.
- Adenosquamous carcinoma.
- Lauren[48] - two types:
Lame memory device STOMACH:
- Signet ring, Tubular, Oh papillary, Mucinous, Adenosquamouas, Crappy High grade (Undifferentiated).
Gross
Location:
- Large carcinomas preferentially involve the lesser curvature.[50]
- Ulceration with heaped (raised) edges.
- Appearance of the typical intestinal type tumour.
- Diffuse wall thickening with loss of the rugae - called linitis plastica.
- Typically due to diffuse carcinoma.
Main DDx of ulcer:
- Peptic ulcer disease - have a "punched-out" appearance: sharp edge, no granularity of surrounding mucosa.
Images:
- Linitis plastica - endoscopic image (WC).
- Ulcerating gastric carcinoma (WC).

- Abundant cytoplasm containing one large (mucin-filled) vacuole.
- A peripheral nucleus (displaced by the vacuole).
- Scattered single cells in the lamina propria or beyond with:
DDx:
- Gastric xanthoma - may mimic signet ring cell carcinoma.
- Neuroendocrine tumour - esp. for poorly differentiated; no gland formation.
Grading
- Moderately differentiated >=50 % glands.[citation needed]
- Poorly differentiated >=50% no glands (sheeting or nests).
