Gastric cancer in the young adult is rare and has been said to be more aggressive than gastric cancers of the older age group. Its unique association with pregnancy is even rarer. However, they have similar complications of haemorrhage, obstruction and perforation. We report a 27 year old lady at 16 weeks gestation who presented with a perforated malignant gastric ulcer and carcinomatosis peritonei. Reviewing the literature, we realised that such complication of a gastric cancer occurring in a pregnant young adult has not been previously documented.
年轻成人胃癌较为罕见,且据说比老年组的胃癌更具侵袭性。其与妊娠的独特关联更为罕见。然而,它们有类似的出血、梗阻和穿孔并发症。我们报告一名妊娠16周的27岁女性,她出现了恶性胃溃疡穿孔和腹膜癌转移。回顾文献,我们发现这种发生在妊娠年轻成人身上的胃癌并发症此前尚未有文献记载。
