Figure 2

Histologic examination of the resected specimens with hematoxylin and eosin revealing moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. (a) From the stomach (magnification ×40), it shows the hypercellularity with basophilic, oligocytoplasmic, and pleomorphic cells and relatively large nuclei with dense chromatin and loose desmoplastic stroma which contains lymphocytic and plasmocytic infiltration. (b) From the resected lymph nodes (magnification ×10), it shows the islets of metastatic infiltration of the tumor cells into the nodes; moderate. (c) From the omentum (magnification ×10), it shows the metastatic infiltrative cells forming multisized islets.
