Abstract

journal of clinical gastroenterology is part of the Juniper publishers which is devoted to publish subject-specific articles focused on the needs of individual research communities across all areas of biology and medicine.

Highlights

  • Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated Gastric Carcinoma (EBVaGC) is defined by the presence of EBV in cancer cells, which is detected by EBVEncoded RNA (EBER) in situ hybridization

  • This type of tumor is a specific entity of gastric carcinoma based on molecular abnormality with favorable prognosis compared with conventional adenocarcinoma. histological hallmark such as marked intra- or peritumoral immune cell infiltration and positivity in the EBER in situ hybridization will be helpful in the diagnosis

  • EBV-associated gastric carcinoma (EBVaGC) is characterized by marked immune cell infiltration, and By Song et al, [5], which is classified into three histological subtype according to the cellular immune response affecting prognosis; lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC), carcinoma with Crohn’s disease-like lymphphoid reaction (CLR), and conventional adenocarcinoma (CA)
