Oxyntic gland adenomas (OGAs) are benign gastric neoplasms composed of gland-forming epithelial cells with predominantly chief cell differentiation resembling oxyntic glands confined to the mucosa. If the tumor has submucosal invasion, it should be classified as gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic gland type. The OGAs can pose a diagnostic challenge, as they can resemble aggressive gastric neoplasms.

68Ga-FAPI-04 Versus 18F-FDG PET/CT in Duodenal Synovial Sarcoma.

Clin Nucl Med

January 2025

Departments of Nuclear Medicine, and Pathology, The First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui, China.

A previously healthy 18-year-old man with a 9-month history of upper abdominal pain and significant weight loss underwent gastroscopy, revealing an ulcerative lesion in the duodenal bulb. Enrolled in a clinical trial, both 18F-FDG and 68Ga-FAPI-04 PET/CT demonstrated similar metabolic activity, though 68Ga-FAPI-04 offered superior lesion delineation. Pathology confirmed synovial sarcoma.

Antibiotics (Basel)

December 2024

Division of Gastroenterology & Endoscopy, IRCCS, Fondazione "Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza", 71013 San Giovanni Rotondo, Italy.

Abdominal ultrasound (US) is a reliable method for visualizing gastric wall layers and measuring their thickness. The objective of this study is to characterize the ultrasound features of -induced gastritis and assess its predictive potential role for this condition. A cohort of 119 patients underwent gastroscopy with biopsy and abdominal US to evaluate antral wall thickness (AWT), submucosal wall thickness (SLT), mucosal wall thickness (MLT), gastric motility, and the presence of ingested material.
