case_images: Gastric tumor with extensive hepatic metastasis. a Histopathology demonstrates a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. HE stain. b Immunohistochemical staining demonstrates an AFP-positive adenocarcinoma (dark stain). c Abdominal positron emission tomography/computed tomography (transverse section). Diffuse hepatic disease and primary gastric tumor (arrow) demonstrate a fluorodeoxyglucose uptake signal.

case_images: Biopsies of the mass revealed a poorly differentiated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-positive adenocarcinoma (fig. 1a, 1b). Positron emission tomography/computed tomography showed uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose in the cardia of the stomach, diffuse and intense uptake in the liver and focal uptake in several pulmonary nodules and the pelvis (fig. 1c).
