Abstract

A case of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin (DCP) producing gastric cancer with multiple liver metastasis is reported. The simultaneous presence of Borrmann I gastric cancer and IIa aggregating type gastric cancer was noted. Borrmann I gastric cancer was a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, while IIa aggregating type gastric cancer was a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Plasma levels of AFP and DCP were 247,000 ng/ml and 320,000 mAU/ml, respectively. Immunohistochemical staining confirmed the production of these two proteins in Borrmann I gastric cancer.
