Minute Gastric Cancer

Abstract
Nineteen cases of minute early gastric cancer were diagnosed by endoscopy. Diagnosis was established by endoscopic biopsy in 18 patients, and an exceptional case of type IIb cancer was found. Some of the endoscopic features of superficial depressed minute cancer were mentioned. The diagnosis of superficial depressed minute cancer was made only by endoscopic observation. Prognosis of minute gastric cancer is excellent. In minute early cancer the 7 yr survival rate was 100%. Prognosis of minute advanced cancer is also quite good. Minute gastric cancers can be found clinically and are almost completely curable.
