Leather stomach

  "Leather stomach" is also known as "leather sac stomach", with a male-to-female ratio of 3.2:1, and is a type of advanced gastric cancer. It has special biological characteristics and the characteristic of concealed clinical manifestations. The growth direction of gastric cancer is not to protrude into the gastric cavity, but to infiltrate the submucosal layer, muscular layer, and serosal layer, eventually causing the disappearance of gastric mucosal folds, shrinkage of the gastric cavity, and thickening and hardening of the entire gastric wall, as hard as leather, hence the name "leather stomach". The treatment of this disease is not effective, and the prognosis is poor. The lesion invades all layers of the submucosa, spreads to the surrounding area, and in the late stage is accompanied by ascites in the abdominal cavity. Early surgery can extend the survival period once the diagnosis is confirmed.
