It is at this time pre-cancerous. there were 2 large masses found and one very small, 2 where removed by a advaced gastor doctor at st.louis University Hospital. One they say is too large to remove that way. He is a High risk surgery canidate due to Poor lung function . And renal isssues , He is a 23 year surviver of Ewings sarcoma, and a 21 year bone Marrow transplant . He is now 40 years old and would love to resolve this before it becomes full blown adenocarrcinoma stomach cancer. Any knowledge for us. Thank you.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

In history, you have mentioned that portion of mass was removed and the lesion is pre-cancerous. So for giving more comments, I need to know histopathology report. Provide that report for giving more comments.

Dysplasia might be present as the lesion is in pre-cancerous stage. If mass cannot be removed, then screening is an option left. So according to histopathology report, a further management plan can be decided.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
