Well differentiated carcinoma with a poor prognosis: a retrospective analysis of papillary gastric adenocarcinoma

ConclusionPapillary gastric adenocarcinoma (PGC) showed different clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis to other types of gastric cancer (GC), even if it was not the primary pathological type. The higher the proportion of papillary adenocarcinoma in gastric cancer samples, the shorter the postoperative survival time of patients. PGC needs further multicenter studies.
