RESUMENEl cáncer gástrico (CG) es uno de las neoplasias más frecuentes en Perú. Recientemente se ha tipificado los subtipos moleculares en CG. Un subtipo molecular es el asociado al virus Epstein Barr. Esta entidad se presenta con una frecuencia del 10%, en una región no cardial, en pacientes varones y con el subtipo histológico difuso. El pronóstico es mejor comparado a los otros tipos de CG. Presenta sus propias alteraciones moleculares que en el futuro podrían ser susceptibles a terapias target o inmunoterapia.
ABSTRACTGastric cancer (CG) is one of the most common neoplasms in Peru. Recently the molecular subtypes have been typified in CG. A molecular subtype is associated with the Epstein Barr virus. This entity presents with a frequency of 10%, in a non-cardiac region, in male patients and with the diffuse histological subtype. The prognosis is better compared to the other types of CG. It presents its own molecular alterations that in the future could be susceptible to target therapies or immunotherapy.
