Abstract

[Background and purpose]

The aim of this study was to investigate factors affecting the proliferative activity of early undifferentiated gastric cancer.

[Method]

We investigated endoscopic and pathological features of early undifferentiated gastric cancer (74 lesions in 73patients). We used Ki-67 staining to evaluate the proliferative activity and identified factors affecting the proliferative activity.

[Results]

H.pylori infection was significantly associated with high Ki-67 index.

[Conclusion]

H. pylori infection may increase the proliferative activity of early undifferentiated gastric cancer.
