    Abstract:
    A 56-year-old man was hospitalized with the complaint of upper abdominal discomfort. A gastrointestinal series revealed a filling defect in the body of the stomach. Under the diagnosis of gastric cancer, total gastrectomy was performed. Borrmann III type cancer measuring 5 X 4 cm, extending to the antrum and the upper portion of the body of the stomach, was identified in the body. Histologically, most of the tumor consisted of squamous cell carcinoma. Adenocarcinoma and a small nest of squamous metaplasia were observed at the peripheral wall of this tumor. The pathological diagnosis was adenosquamous carcinoma. In some regional lymph nodes, metastasis of adenocarcinoma was observed.
