Abstract EN

Gastric adenocarcinoma with yolk sac tumor (YST) differentiation has rarely been reported.

We report a case of primary gastric adenocarcinoma with yolk sac tumor differentiation and liver metastases of the YST component in a 50-years-old patient.

This was suspected due to high serum level of alpha fetoprotein in the presence of a gastric fundal tumor.

Gastric carcinoma with yolk sac tumor component is a rare entity with a poor prognostic outcome.
