Symptoms

What is Gastric Adeno?

Gastric Adeno, which is also referred to as gastric adenocarcinoma, is a form of stomach cancer that progresses in the inner lining of the stomach. It can be small and slow-growing with no apparent signs in the initial phase. Treatment success is much enhanced through early diagnosis.

Common Symptoms

Symptoms may not be observable at the beginning; however, as the disease advances, you should look out for:

  • Continual heartburn or indigestion
  • Satisfaction with small meals
  • Slight nausea or abdominal pain
  • Loss of appetite
  • Unintentional weight loss
  • Persistent stomach pain
  • Difficulty swallowing
  • Vomiting in occasional cases with blood
  • Black or tarry stools

Causes

Gastric Adeno can be predisposed by a number of factors:

  • Helicobacter pylori infection
  • Chronic inflammation of the stomach (gastritis)
  • Family history of stomach cancer
  • Diets high in salty, smoked, or pickled foods
  • Smoking
  • Some predisposed inherited disorders
Treatment

Treatment Options for Gastric Adeno in Jersey Village

The use of endoscopic treatment, surgery, systemic therapy, and clinical research is considered treatment:

  • Endoscopic resection: It is the removal of small and early tumors through a thin, flexible tube its end equipped with a camera (endoscope).
  • Surgery (gastrectomy): Surgical removal, in amounts of half or all the stomach with or without lymph node dissection to remove cancerous tissue.
  • Chemotherapy: This involves anti cancer agents that are administered either before (neoadjuvant) or after (adjuvant) surgery in order to shrink the tumors and kill the microscopic disease.
  • Radiation therapy: High energy x-rays are directed to the tumor site to destroy cancer cells and minimize local recurrence.
  • Targeted therapy: Specific proteins or genes: Targeted therapy involves medications that prevent the growth of the tumor by blocking the activity of a particular protein or gene. Targeted therapy is administered as a single therapy, or it is delivered alongside chemotherapy.
  • Immunotherapy: This is a type of treatment that activates the immune system of the body to identify cancer cells and destroy them in the stomach.
  • Clinical trials: A trial of some of the latest medications—new drugs, combinations, or techniques—administered under professional oversight.
