| Popis: | We present the case of a 35-year-old male with a first-degree family history of gastric cancer (his father was diagnosed at the age of 45), who was presumed to have gastric cancer himself when evaluating the features of his upper endoscopy performed after hematemesis. Surprisingly, no cancer cells were found in the biopsies. Thanks to a different diagnostic suspicion subsequent to performing a full clinical history, a more favorable diagnosis was reached: gastric syphilis. |
