Proceeding from analysis of over 2000 ultrasound investigations (USI) the role of this method in the diagnosis of stomach tumors was defined (employed during routine investigation of the abdominal cavity and as a procedure with liquid filling of the stomach cavity). Ultrasound semiotics of a neoplastic process of the stomach was described. USI can be used for screening and specification. Various methodological approaches were proposed with regard to purposes to be achieved. Routine methods (x-ray and endoscopy) were shown to remain the chief methods. USI can be used in doubtful cases or for obtaining detailed information. The most valuable are its potentialities in showing details of intraparietal changes in endophytic stomach carcinomas which are difficult for diagnosis.

The aim of our 5-year study (from January 2008 to December 2012) was to compare the incidence of peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB) to bleeding from tumors of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The percentage of re-bleeding within the first 30 days of hospital admission, as well as the need of blood transfusions, are also reported. Statistical data were collected on 2198 patients who were treated in our emergency department due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) in the form of melena or hematemesis.

Objectives: KH-type splicing regulatory protein (KHSRP) is an RNA-binding protein involved in several cellular processes, including nuclear splicing, mRNA localization, and cytoplasmic degradation. While KHSRP's role has been studied in other cancers, its specific involvement in gastric cancer remains poorly understood. This study aims to explore KHSRP expression in gastric cancer and its potential effects on tumor progression and immune response.

Background: Gastric Cancer (GC) is the 5th most prevalent and 4th most deadly neoplasm globally. Immunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment approach in GC, potentially improving positive clinical outcomes while addressing the limitations of conventional therapies. GC immunotherapy modalities consist of adoptive cell therapy (ACT), cancer vaccines, and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI).

Background: Patients with gastric cancer (GC) are prone to lymph node metastasis (LNM), which is an important factor for recurrence and poor prognosis of GC. Nowadays, more and more studies have confirmed that exosomes can participate in tumor lymphangiogenesis. An in-depth exploration of the pathological mechanism in the process of LNM in GC may provide effective targets and improve the diagnosis and treatment effect.

Extra-skeletal Ewing sarcoma is a rare tumor, most commonly occurring in the paravertebral region, extremities, retroperitoneum, and very rarely in visceral locations. We present two primary visceral Ewing sarcomas confirmed at the molecular level: one located in the stomach and the other in the bladder. Both tumors demonstrated strong and diffuse membranous CD99 expression, accompanied by variable KIT immunoreactivity.
