Stomach adenoma, also gastric adenoma, is a precursor to adenocarcinoma of the stomach.
Gastric columnar dysplasia, gastric dysplasia, and tubular adenoma of the stomach direct here.
General
- Lesions that protrude into the lumen and are macroscopically apparent are known as: adenomas.[1]
- Polypoid forms are grouped various ways.[2]
Grading
Like in the colon - they are divided into:
- Low grade.
- High grade.
Subclassification
One subclassification:[3]
- Intestinal: goblet cells or Paneth cells.
- Not associated with FAP.
- Gastric: foveolar epithelium.
- Associated with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP).[4]
Microscopic
- Histologic criteria similar to columnar dysplasia in the esophagus.
- The threshold is much lower than in the colon and rectum.
Foveolar type
Features:
- Hyperchromasia at the surface - key feature.
- Cytoplasm with (shortened) champagne flute-like luminal aspect (apical mucin caps).
- Nuclear changes:
- Hyperchromasia.
- Enlargement.
- No intestinal metaplasia.
DDx:
Intestinal type
Features - intestinal:
- Intestinal metaplasia.
- Hyperchromasia of cytoplasm.
- Nuclear changes:
- Loss of nuclear polarity.
- Increased NC ratio.
- Elongation of nucleus and pseudostratification.

Grading
Low-grade gastric dysplasia
Features:
- Nuclear changes:
- Nuclear crowding/pseudostratification with hyperchromasia.
- Elongation of nuclei (cigar-shaped nuclei).
- Nuclear stratification intact; nuclei close to the basement membrane.
- Architecture:
- Focal irregularities in the glandular contours.
Negatives:
- No desmoplasia.
- No necrosis.
- No surface maturation.
DDx:
- Indefinite for dysplasia.
- High-grade gastric columnar dysplasia - see below.
- The threshold is much lower than in the colon and rectum!
Images:
- Low-grade gastric columnar dysplasia - several images (upmc.edu).
- Gastric low-grade dysplasia (nih.gov).[5]
High-grade gastric dysplasia
Features:
- Nuclear changes:
- Round hyperchromatic nuclei.
- Loss of normal nuclear stratification.
- Architecture:
- Irregularities in the glandular contours.
- Back-to-back glands.
- +/-Cribriforming of the glands.
- +/-Necrosis.
Negatives:
- No desmoplasia.
DDx:
- Low-grade gastric columnar dysplasia.
- Gastric adenocarcinoma.
