Abstract
We have found only 308 cases of gastric cancer in patients with unoperated duodenal ulcer. We present seven men whose duodenal ulcer disease obscured the diagnosis of gastric cancer. We review the theoretical reasons that those with duodenal ulcer may be protected from gastric cancer, along with the current literature.Entities:
