Abstract
Reports of Helicobacter pylori (Hp)-naïve gastric neoplasm (HpNGN) cases have been rapidly increasing due to the recent increase in the Hp-naïve population in Japan. Most HpNGNs exhibit the gastric immunophenotype and a low malignant potential regardless of histological type. Especially, foveolar-type gastric adenoma (FGA) and intestinal-type gastric dysplasia (IGD) rarely progress to invasive carcinoma. FGA is a foveolar epithelial neoplasm that occurs in the fundic gland (oxyntic gland) mucosa and is classified as the flat type or raspberry type (FGA-RA). The flat type is a large, whitish flatly elevated lesion while FGA-RA is a small reddish polyp. Genomically, the flat type is characterized by APC and KRAS gene mutations and FGA-RA by a common single nucleotide variant in the KLF4 gene. This KLF4 single-nucleotide variant reportedly induces gastric foveolar epithelial tumorigenesis and activates both cell proliferation and apoptosis, leading to its slow-growing nature. IGD consists of an intestinalized epithelial dysplasia that develops in the pyloric gland mucosa, characterized as a superficial depressed lesion surrounded by raised mucosa showing a gastritis-like appearance. Immunohistochemically, it exhibits an intestinal or gastrointestinal phenotype and, frequently, p53 overexpression. Thus, IGD shows unique characteristics in HpNGNs and a potential multistep tumorigenic process.

Abstract
Objective This study investigated the prevalence of gastric epithelial tumor in Helicobacter pylori-uninfected subjects who underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) as part of an annual checkup. Methods A total of 20,540 EGD examinations of H. pylori-uninfected individuals (12,917 men, 7,623 women; mean age 51.5±9.2 years old) were performed between April 2016 and March 2023. The prevalence of gastric epithelial tumor discovery and the size and location of each lesion type were analyzed. Results According to 20,540 examinations, 61 gastric epithelial tumors were endoscopically and histologically diagnosed in 58 of the subjects, with a prevalence rate of 0.28%. These tumors included signet-ring carcinoma (n=10, 0.05%), gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic-gland type (n=10, 0.05%), intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinoma (n=2, 0.01%), and raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors (n=36, 0.18%). One subject had two intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinomas, and two each had two raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors. The mean sizes of the signet-ring carcinomas, gastric adenocarcinoma of fundic-gland type, intestinal-type well-differentiated adenocarcinomas, and raspberry-type gastric foveolar tumors were 6.4, 4.7, 5.0, and 3.4 mm, respectively. Each lesion was located at a specific site in the stomach characteristic of its type. Conclusion In the present H. pylori-uninfected subjects, the prevalence of gastric epithelial tumors found on an EGD examination was 0.28%. Endoscopic examination should be performed in H. pylori-uninfected individuals to detect such tumors in characteristic locations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of gastric neoplasms in Helicobacter pylori (Hp)-naïve patients has recently increased due to a remarkable decrease in the Hp-infected population in Japan. We investigated the clinicopathologic differences between Hp-infected gastric neoplasms (HpIGNs) and Hp-naïve gastric neoplasms (HpNGNs) that have not been fully elucidated so far. METHODS This retrospective multicenter study investigated 966 consecutive patients with 1131 gastric dysplasia or cancers who underwent endoscopic or surgical treatment for the recent decade. Clinicopathologic features were compared between HpIGN and HpNGN cases. RESULTS One thousand and sixty-eight HpIGNs in 916 patients included 877 differentiated types and 191 undifferentiated types. Sixty-three HpNGNs in 50 patients included 57 differentiated types (35 foveolar types, 15 intestinal types, 6 fundic-gland types, and 1 other differentiated type) and 6 undifferentiated types. HpNGNs occurred in younger (59.5 vs. 71.8 years, p < 0.05) and female patients (40.0% vs. 26.5%, p < 0.05), were found more frequently in the proximal compartment (p < 0.05), and had smaller size (median 4.0 vs. 20.0 mm, p < 0.05). Histologically, HpNGNs and HpIGNs both primarily consisted of differentiated type (90.5% vs. 82.1%, p = 0.089) and HpNGNs showed lower prevalence of invasive cancer (11.1% vs. 37.6%, p < 0.05) and lymphovascular invasion (1.6% vs. 31.6%, p < 0.05). Nearly all HpNGNs (62/63, 98.4%) were diagnosed in early pathological stage, while 16.1% (172/1068) of HpIGNs were diagnosed in advanced stage (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS HpNGNs is recently on the increase but shows lower malignant nature regardless of histologic type than HpIGN. Endoscopic gastric cancer screening will be reviewed via cost effectiveness for Hp-naïve individuals in future.

Endoscopic differential diagnosis between foveolar-type gastric adenoma and gastric hyperplastic polyps in Helicobacter pylori-naïve patients. Gastric Cancer 2023; 26:1002-1011. [PMID: 37543537 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-023-01420-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Foveolar-type gastric adenoma (FGA) occurs in Helicobacter pylori (Hp)-naïve individuals and morphologically mimics Hp-naïve gastric hyperplastic polyp (HpN-GHP). FGA is often difficult to distinguish from HpN-GHP even by biopsy, due to its low-grade histologic atypia. We conducted a retrospective study to create an endoscopic diagnostic index. METHODS We analyzed 51 FGAs in 41 patients and 36 HpN-GHPs in 24 patients. All lesions were photographed by white-light endoscopy (WLE) and narrow-band imaging with magnification endoscopy (NBIME). Three experts and three non-experts reviewed the WLE and WLE+NBIME images to assess six items for lesion diagnosis. We analyzed correlations between the diagnostic items and histologic features and compared the diagnostic accuracy between modalities. We created a composite diagnostic index and calculated its accuracy and consistency. RESULTS FGAs more frequently showed the following features vs. HpN-GHPs: bright-red color (94.1% vs. 44.4%), peripheral hyperplasia (58.8% vs. 8.3%), papillary/gyrus-like microstructure (96.1% vs. 33.3%), visible capillaries (70.6% vs. 38.9%), and demarcation line (98.0% vs. 41.7%) (P < 0.05). White-zone thickening was seen only in HpN-GHPs (52.8%). Diagnostic accuracy (mean, WLE vs. WLE+NBIME) was 90.8 ± 1.1% vs. 93.5 ± 2.4% (P = 0.15) for experts and 88.5 ± 3.0% vs. 86.6 ± 3.5% (P = 0.51) for non-experts. When satisfying the four criteria (bright-red color, papillary/gyrus-like microstructure, demarcation line, and absent white-zone thickening), sensitivity and specificity for FGA were 90.2% and 94.4%, respectively, with a kappa value of ≥ 0.6 for interobserver diagnostic agreement. CONCLUSIONS Composite diagnostic index contributes to the reproducible, accurate, preoperative differential diagnosis of FGA and HpN-GHP.
