  • Title: Intramucosal carcinoma of the gastric antrum complicating Menetrier's disease.
    Author: Wood MG, Bates C, Brown RC, Losowsky MS.
    Journal: J Clin Pathol; 1983 Sep; 36(9):1071-5. PubMed ID: 6886023.
    Abstract:
    A 48-year-old man presented with haematemesis and was found to have Menetrier's disease. Three and a half years later early gastric cancer was detected at routine follow-up endoscopy. This is the first report of the development of early gastric cancer during follow-up in a case of Menetrier's disease. It is probable that patients with Menetrier's disease are at increased risk of gastric cancer, and should have regular endoscopic follow-up with gastric biopsy.
