Report of a Case of Signet Ring Carcinoma Presenting as Gastric Mucosal Thickening: A Diagnostic Dilemma. Bezmialem Science 2021;9(1):120-4.http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12645/28179The number of cancer cases has been increasing worldwide. Early diagnosis and tumor resection remain as the most effective treatments for gastric cancer. However, early diagnosis is not always possible as it is frequently not possible to make treatment decisions without pathologic diagnosis in patients with clinically suspected cancer. This causes delays in diagnosing cancer. We presented a 58 years old woman with gastric signet ring cell carcinoma that could not be diagnosed despite using four different methods of stomach biopsies. We aimed to emphasize that despite the use of advanced methods, if clinical cancer in non-diagnosed cases is suspected, we should be more aggressive for early diagnosis.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGastric mucosal thickeningdiagnostic dilemmassignet ring cell carcinomaGastrik mukozal kalınlaşmatanı zorluklarıtaşlı yüzük hücreli karsinomArticleWOS:00061376080002010.14235/bas.galenos.2020.5378DOI: https://doi.org/10.14235/bas.galenos.2020.5378425357
