Coriocarcinoma gástrico primario: un hallazgo endoscópico infrecuente

Abstract

Introducción: El coriocarcinoma gástrico primario (CGP) es una neoplasia infrecuente y altamente agresiva que representa menos de 0.1% de todos los cánceres gástricos. Esta neoplasia suele ser frecuentemente confundida con adenocarcinoma gástrico debido a que comparte características clínicas, epidemiológicas e histopatológicas similares, por lo que es importante mantener una alta sospecha de esta entidad. Reporte de caso: Se presenta un el caso de una paciente mujer de 64 años que acudió al hospital con síntomas gastrointestinales inespecíficos que incluían anemia, fatiga y llenura precoz. La biopsia endoscópica de la lesión reveló la presencia de CGP en estadio clínico IV que presentó una respuesta parcial luego de 4 ciclos de quimioterapia con el esquema EMA/EP (Etoposido 140 mg, Metotrexate 440 mg, Actinomicina D 0.5 mg/ Etoposido 220 mg, cisplatino 110 mg). Conclusión: Enfatizar el mal pronóstico de los coriocarcinomas extragonadales en contraste con los coriocarcinomas gonadales, los cuales suelen tener un mejor pronóstico.

Introduction:Primary gastric choriocarcinoma (PGC) is a rare and highly aggressive neoplasm that represents less than 0.1% of all gastric cancers. This neoplasm is often confused with gastric adenocarcinoma because it shares clinical, epidemiological and histopathological characteristics, so it is important to maintain a high suspicion of this entity.Case of report:A case of a 64-year-old woman who came to the hospital with non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms that arose anemia, fatigue and early fullness is presented.The endoscopic biopsy of the lesion revealed the presence of PGC in clinical stage IV that presented a partial response after 4 cycles of chemotherapy with the EMA/EP regimen (Etoposide 140 mg, Methotrexate 440 mg, Actinomycin D 0.5 mg/ Etoposide 220 mg, cisplatin 110 mg).Conclusion:To emphasize the poor prognosis of extragonadal choriocarcinomas in contrast to gonadal choriocarcinomas, which usually have a better prognosis.
