RESUMO
A 29-year-old man with nodular gastritis diagnosed by previous gastroscopy was referred to our hospital for an evaluation of laryngeal discomport and soreness. The patient had no previous history of eradication for Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis. Gastroscopy demonstrated the presence of gooseflesh-like nodularities on antrum and whitish discoloring lesion with depression on lesser curvature of lower body. The whitish discoloring lesion with depression was histologically diagnosed a signet ring cell carcinoma by endoscopic biopsy. We report this case of a patient with nodular gastritis who received no eradication therapy and was diagnosed with signet ring cell carcinoma with a review of the literature.

Interstitial lung diseases are diagnosed based on clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings. There are various kinds of interstitial lung diseases involving both the interstitium and bronchioles. Bronchiolitis interstitial pneumonitis (BIP) was recently reported as an independent disease cluster combined with both interstitial pneumonitis and bronchiolitis, which is not classified in a specific category of idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) by the present classification. In this case report, we introduce a recently experienced patient with BIP. A 68-year-old female visited our hospital with aggravated dyspnea for the past 2 months. Her chest computed tomography scan compared to 6 months ago showed increased reticulonodular lesion and ground glass opacities, suggesting interstitial lung disease. A video-assisted thoracoscopic biopsy from a right lower lobe wedge resection resulted in the diagnosis of BIP. Clinical symptoms, pulmonary lesions, and pulmonary function test results remained stable for 1.5 years after oral glucocorticoid and immunosuppressive therapy.
