Two histological main types could be distinguished in gastric carcinomas by a structural and histochemical study of a surgical material comprising 1,344 cases. Intestinal-type carcinoma accounted for 53% and diffuse carcinoma for 33% of all gastric carcinomas. Carcinomas of these main types had their own typical features of general structure and cell structure, secretion of mucus and mode of growth. The proportion of men and older patients was greater in the intestinal-type group than in the group with diffuse carcinoma. Gastritic changes in the surrounding mucosa and the incidence and extent of intestinal metaplasias were greater in intestinal-type carcinomas. The prognosis was poorer in diffuse than in intestinal-type carcinomas. As intestinal-type and diffuse gastric carcinoma differed not only structurally but also in their correlation to the other characteristics of the disease, it might be assumed that they, at least to some extent, are caused by different etiologic factors and that they differ pathogenetically as well.
