Abstract
Precancerous changes have been divided into two groups: A precancerous condition is a generalized state associated with significantly increased risk of cancer; a precancerous lesion is a morphologically altered tissue in which cancer is more likely to occur than in its apparently normal counterpart. [Definition of a WHO-meeting (Can. 73.1)]. The present report includes only precancerous lesions. Regarding the broad spectrum of such lesions in the human stomach, nothing should be said here about the significance of atrophic gastritis as a possible precancerous condition, morphologically, nor shall the different types of polypoid lesions of the stomach, in general, be discussed. The problem of intestinal metaplasia being connected with a possibly increased risk of gastric carcinoma will be mentioned in view of the next paper (Correa, see p. 83).
