A Korean case of gastric adenoma with high-grade dysplasia that is regarded as early gastric cancer (EGC) in Japan. Because dysplastic cytologic atypia is confined to the superficial mucosa without invasion into the lamina propria, the diagnosis in Korea is not cancer but a gastric adenoma with high-grade dysplasia (H&E stain, ×100). The diagnosis is EGC in Japan based on severe cytologic atypia with enlarged nuclei.
