Figure 3
Macroscopic and microscopic findings of the sigmoid colon and gastric cancers. (a) The sigmoid colon contained a nearly circumferential polypoid tumor. (b) Histological examination revealed well-differentiated adenocarcinoma invading the subserosa (hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification, ×100). (c) The stomach contained a superficial depressed and elevated type tumor in the greater curvature of the lower third of the stomach (black arrowheads). (d) Histological examination revealed well- to moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma confined to the mucosa (hematoxylin and eosin; original magnification, ×100).
