Mixed crawling-type gastric adenocarcinoma

Crawling-type gastric carcinoma is a rare variant of early gastric carcinoma. Endoscopically, it is a poorly defined tumor with a flat appearance and histologically, especially in a small biopsy, mimic intestinal metaplasia with reactive atypia. We present a case in which, due to the finding of foci of signet ring cell carcinoma, correct management of the patient was carried out.
