We experienced 3 cases of invasive micropapillary carcinoma (IMPC) component in gastric intramucosal carcinoma, which we report with a brief review of the literature. The onset site was lower body in 3 patients. The histological type was well differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma in 2 patients and papillary adenocarcinoma in 1 patient. There was no lymphovascular invasion observed. They have progressed to date without recurrence. Early gastric cancer with IMPC component might not be so aggressive.
