On the features of the diagnosis of cricoid cancer of the stomach
Signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach is one of the most difficult for the diagnosis of morphological verification. These tumors have the most infiltrating properties, tumor cells are homogeneously distributes in the deep layers of the gastric mucosa. No pronounced changes of the mucosal architectonics appropriate to the cancer, but visual endoscopic picture looks like a different types of gastritis. Development of endoscopic technology, study of the semiotics of stomach cancer and morphological verification facilities made it possible to achieve significant success.
