Gastric metastasis from breast cancer is often difficult to diagnose due to nonspecific symptoms and variable endoscopic findings. We report a case of a 64-year-old woman with a long history of stable metastatic breast cancer to the spine who presented with new-onset weight loss and nausea. Cross-sectional imaging was negative for cancer spread to the gastrointestinal tract. She was found to have biopsy-proven breast cancer cells in the stomach, despite the absence of gastric lesions in a follow-up positron emission tomography scan. Apart from minimal gastritis, there were no visible nodules, ulcers, or features of linitis plastica on endoscopy.
由于症状不具特异性且内镜检查结果多变,乳腺癌胃转移往往难以诊断。我们报告一例64岁女性病例,该患者有脊柱稳定转移的乳腺癌病史,此次出现新发体重减轻和恶心症状。横断面成像未发现癌症扩散至胃肠道。尽管后续正电子发射断层扫描未发现胃部病变,但经活检证实其胃内存在乳腺癌细胞。内镜检查除发现轻微胃炎外,未见明显结节、溃疡或皮革胃特征。
