Description

Li Chen and coauthors describe a 2026 look at how rare stomach gland tumors appear on endoscopy. Oxyntic gland neoplasms include a benign adenoma and two cancer types from acid-making glands, and they often lack an obvious cancer look. Records came from one major center for histology-proven cases between January 2019 and July 2025, with three imaging modes reviewed.

Among 156,240 upper endoscopies, only 35 patients had these tumors, a rate of 0.028 percent as reported. Lesions were small, with a median of 6 mm, and clustered in the upper stomach. Color often matched nearby lining or looked mildly red, with branching vessels in about a third. Enlarged openings and vessels marked benign forms on magnified views.
