A captive-bred male baboon presented with severe evidence of blood loss and melaena. An upper gastrointestinal radiological study with Gastrografin showed a large trichobezoar. Laparotomy confirmed its presence and revealed gastric ulceration with perforation and generalized peritonitis. The condition was successfully treated by surgery.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent malignancy with a substantial health burden and high mortality rate, despite advances in prevention, early detection, and treatment. Compared with the global average, Asia, notably China, reports disproportionately high GC incidences. The disease often progresses asymptomatically in the early stages, leading to delayed diagnosis and compromised outcomes.

Background: Chromosome segregation 1 like () overexpression can promote proliferation and migration in cancer. In previous study, we found that CSE1L expression was higher in gastric cancer (GC) tissues compared to normal tissues. However, the biological function and molecular mechanism of CSE1L in GC remains unclear.

Objective: Upper gastrointestinal (UGI) cancers, including esophageal (EC) and gastric (GC) cancers, pose a significant global health challenge. Previous studies have indicated a fundamental correlation between basophil count and the risk of UGI cancer. However, confirming a causal relationship demands further investigation.
