In this report, we describe a case of a gastric cancer in young age group with delayed diagnosis and poor prognosis. We report a rare case of a 16-year-old teenager with an advanced moderately differentiated gastric adenocarcinoma without any relevant history. He presented mainly with dysphagia, postprandial vomiting, and eventually hematemesis. On exploratory laparotomy, the tumor was in advanced stage, the excision was not performed, multiple biopsies and a feeding jejunostomy were done, and the patient was referred to receive a palliative therapy. Reporting such cases introduces a better understanding of the relation between gastric cancer and young ages.
在本报告中,我们描述了一例年轻胃癌患者,诊断延迟且预后不良。我们报告了一例罕见病例,一名16岁青少年患有晚期中度分化胃腺癌,无任何相关病史。他主要表现为吞咽困难、餐后呕吐,最终出现呕血。在剖腹探查术中,肿瘤已处于晚期,未进行切除,进行了多次活检并做了空肠造口术,患者被转诊接受姑息治疗。报告此类病例有助于更好地理解胃癌与年轻患者之间的关系。
