Gastric cancer frequently spreads to the regional lymph nodes, liver and lungs following surgery or late in the clinical course. However, an initial clinical presentation of bone metastasis in gastric cancer patients is relatively rare. The current study presents two cases of gastric cancer diffusely metastasized to the spinal vertebrae and with a single metastasis to the trapezium, respectively. The initial presentations were an increased alkaline phosphatase level without any symptoms associated with bone metastasis in the first case and a swelling in the right carpometacarpal joint of the thumb in the second case. These clinical manifestations are also extremely rare in gastric cancer with bone metastasis. The study emphasizes that a diagnosis of gastric cancer should be considered in patients with increased alkaline phosphatase without clinical symptoms or with a single bone metastasis.
