| Core Tip |
Gastric cancer is among the top causes of cancer globally. Approximately one in ten patients with gastric cancer has a coexisting neoplastic lesion in the stomach. In most instances, these synchronous lesions are at an early and curable stage. However, one-third of them are not detected at the time of diagnosis of the primary cancer. This can adversely affect the overall outcome. This minireview highlights the characteristics and risk factors of synchronous gastric neoplasms. Advances in endoscopic techniques, such as magnification and digital chromoendoscopy, facilitate better visualisation of gastrointestinal mucosa and detection of lesions. Utilization of these techniques and improved awareness about synchronous lesions may improve the detection rate and clinical outcome. |
