Abstract
A 44-year-old woman with gastric cancer (GC) and fundic gland polyposis (FGPs) was referred to our hospital for further diagnosis and treatment. She successfully underwent eradication therapy for Helicobacter pylori (HP) 6 years ago, but did not exhibit FGPs at that time. When she underwent an esophagogastroduodenoscopy 2, 4, and 5 years after the eradication of HP, her imaging results revealed the existence of FGPs which gradually increased in her gastric fundus and body. Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) was suspected and a mutational analysis was performed, revealing an APC promoter 1B variant c.-191T > C. A robotic total gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy was performed. Histopathological analysis of the surgical specimens revealed GC with no lymph node metastasis. GAPPS is characterized by GC and FGPs. However, our case shows different gastric phenotypes that are dependent on the status of HP infection.

Abstract
A 35-year-old woman of Asian descent with epigastralgia was referred to our hospital. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed gastric cancer in the upper body and carpeting fundic gland polyposis in the fornix and body. Computed tomography revealed no metastases. Total colonoscopy and capsule endoscopy revealed no polyposis, except in the stomach. The patient was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer and underwent open total gastrectomy. We speculated that her gastric cancer was a hereditary tumor due to its early onset and accompanying fundic gland polyposis. Germline multi-gene panel testing identified a single-nucleotide variant, c.-191 T > G, in exon 1B of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene, which can cause gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach. To our knowledge, this is the first manuscript to report the variant (c.-191 T > G) in promoter 1B of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene, which is related to a predisposition to gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach.

Abstract
Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) was first proposed by Wothley et al. in 2012 as a rare familial gastric cancer syndrome associated with an autosomal dominant form of inheritance. GAPPS is characterized by gastric basal gland polyposis from the hilum to the body of the stomach. Li et al. in 2016 showed that the cause of the disease is a point mutation in the promotor 1B region of the APC gene, and genetic testing was used to confirm the diagnosis. If the patient has already developed gastric cancer, treatment should be based on the usual treatment for gastric cancer. If no distant metastases exist, a good prognosis can be expected by performing a total gastrectomy. On the other hand, patients with distant metastasis have a poor prognosis. In the case of dysplasia, prophylactic total gastrectomy is recommended, but because it is highly invasive and postoperative postgastrectomy syndrome must be considered, the decision should be made with careful consideration of the patient's background. Therefore, there are no guidelines for screening for GAPPS, the timing of prophylactic total gastrectomy, or methods of endoscopic surveillance. Because GAPPS is a rare disease, its natural history is still unclear. Further case series are needed to elucidate the molecular biology and clinicopathological features of GAPPS and to establish clinical management, including diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance. In this review, we provide an overview of GAPPS, its clinical management, and its problems, which will be useful for the treatment of GAPPS.

Abstract
Background Gastric adenomatous proximal polyposis syndrome (GAPPS) is a recently described, rare, autosomal dominant condition characterized by the extensive involvement of the proximal stomach with hundreds of heterogeneous fundic gland polyps with antral and duodenal sparing. GAPPS is caused by a point mutation of the APC gene promoter 1B and is associated with a risk of malignant transformation, distant metastasis, and death. There are no surveillance, screening, or treatment guidelines for managing GAPPS. The few reported cases have been variably managed with endoscopic surveillance or prophylactic gastrectomy. However, there is no consensus on the optimal management approach. Summary In this case series, we review the relevant literature on GAPPS and present two siblings who underwent early prophylactic total gastrectomies with good outcomes. Conclusion Due to the poor correlation between the endoscopic findings on sampled polyps and the risk of harboring invasive gastric cancer, patients with GAPPS should be strongly considered for early prophylactic total gastrectomies in the absence of prohibitive comorbidities.

Abstract
There are three major hereditable syndromes that affect primarily the stomach: hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC), gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) and familial intestinal gastric cancer (FIGC). HDGC is caused by germline mutations in CDH1 gene that occur in 10-40% of HDGC families and, in a minority of cases, by mutations in CTNNA1 gene. GAPPS is caused by germline mutations in the promoter 1B of APC gene, and the genetic cause of FIGC is not fully elucidated. Gastric cancer can also be observed as part of other inherited cancer disorders, namely in familial adenomatous polyposis, MUTYH-associated polyposis, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, juvenile polyposis syndrome, Lynch syndrome, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, Cowden syndrome, and hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome. In this article, the state of the art of familial gastric cancer regarding the clinical, molecular and pathology features is reviewed, as well as the practical aspects for a correct diagnosis and clinical management.

Abstract
Although environmental factors such as Helicobacter pylori, tobacco, and diet are major contributors to the development of gastric cancer (GC) worldwide, it is estimated that up to 5% to 10% of GC cases are due to an underlying hereditary susceptibility caused by germline pathogenic variants. Hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) caused by germline pathogenic variants in the CDH1 gene is the principal familial GC syndrome. However, other well-established hereditary gastrointestinal syndromes have been associated with an increased risk of GC. In this review, we will discuss the latest insights and advances in our understanding of GC associated with Lynch syndrome (LS), familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS), Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS), and juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS). We will also discuss the emergence of new associations of the homologous recombination pathway genes (BRCA1, BRCA2) with GC.

Abstract
Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) is a rare gastric polyposis syndrome defined by numerous polyps (>100) in the fundus and body of the stomach with sparing of the lesser curvature and antrum. GAPPS is linked to a variant in the promoter 1B region of the APC gene. These variants carry a high risk of developing gastric adenocarcinoma, which can occur at an early age. We report a case of GAPPS discovered in a 16-year-old Hispanic girl after endoscopy detected extensive fundic gland polyposis. Genetic testing revealed a promoter 1B point mutation of the APC gene, variant c.-191T>G. Although similar variants have been reported (i.e., c.-191T>C, c.-195A>C, c.-192A>G) in association with GAPPS, variant c.-191T>G has not nor has GAPPS ever been described in a Hispanic individual before.

Abstract
Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) is a rare familial gastric cancer syndrome with an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. It is characterised by fundic gland polyposis of the gastric body and is associated with a significant risk of gastric adenocarcinoma. Unlike sporadic gastric cancer, Helicobacter pylori is usually absent in patients with GAPPS. This opposite-point finding has so far not been fully clarified. Prophylactic total gastrectomy is indicated in all cases of GAPPS with fundic gland polyposis and the presence of any dysplasia. If no dysplasia is found at histology, prophylactic gastrectomy is suggested at between 30 and 35 years of age, or at five years earlier than the age at which the youngest family member developed gastric cancer. Different phenotypes of GAPPS demand an individual approach to particular family members.

Abstract
Despite the relative rarity of hereditary gastric cancer syndromes, the prompt recognition of their specific clinical features and histopathological characteristics is pivotal in offering patients the most appropriate treatment. In this article, we address the three major inherited syndromes that primarily affect the stomach: hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC), caused by germline variants in CDH1 and CTNNA1; gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach, caused by germline mutations in promoter 1B of APC; and familial intestinal gastric cancer, which has a poorly defined genetic cause. The main focus will be on HDGC, in light of the recent publication of updated clinical practice guidelines and emerging concepts regarding HDGC histopathology. In particular, we describe the broad morphological spectrum of HDGC lesions, stressing the importance of recognising indolent and aggressive phenotypes. Moreover, we discuss the increased risk of gastric (pre)malignancies developing in patients with other well-defined hereditary cancer syndromes, such as familial adenomatous polyposis, Lynch syndrome, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, juvenile polyposis, Li-Fraumeni syndrome, and hereditary breast and ovarian cancer syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the frequency, structure and risk factors of adverse drug effects in adolescents with acute psychotic episode by the methods of global triggers - Paediatric All-Cause Harm Measurement Tool (PACHMT) and Global Assessment of Paediatric Patient Safety Tool (GAPPS). PATIENTS AND METHODS We used 151 completed case histories of patients who were admitted to a psychiatric hospital with acute psychotic episode. We applied Global Trigger Tool algorithm to each case retrospectively: we developed a special trigger list for psychiatric patients based on PACHMT, GAPPS and general Global Trigger Tool. We also calculated the Medical Appropriateness Index (MAI) for each case. We applied trigger tool analysis for calculation of treatment safety parameters. Statistical analyses included Pearson's Chi-square, Mann-Whitney U, and Kruskal-Walles tests. RESULTS We identified a total of 261 triggers among 151 analysed cases, 51 of which were accompanied by adverse drug effects (ADEs) (overall positive prediction value = 19.54%). The value of ADEs per 1000 bed days was 4.73, ADEs per 100 admissions was 33.77%. Extrapyramidal reactions to antipsychotics (58.8%) were the most common ADEs, followed by an abrupt medication stop of one or more drugs due to ADEs (25.5%). Significant predictors of antipsychotic-induced extrapyramidal symptoms were age, MAI score and total number of hospital admissions. CONCLUSION We recommend three triggers, "Abrupt medication stop", "Prescribing of extrapyramidal symptoms corrector", and "Hospital readmission within 30 days", with reasonable positive predictive value for incorporation into routine systems for patient safety monitoring in adolescents with an acute psychotic episode. Antipsychotic-induced extrapyramidal symptoms were more prevalent in older adolescents and patients with fewer lifetime hospital admissions. These patients need to be carefully monitored to ensure patient safety.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide. The majority of gastric cancers are sporadic but familial clustering is seen in more than 10% of cases. This manuscript is divided into two parts. The first part is dedicated to the non-syndromic hereditary gastric cancer, particularly the hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC) and other gastric polyposes including the recently described GAPPS (Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach). The second part concerns the syndromic gastric cancer, namely the HNPCC syndrome (Hereditary Non Polyposis Colorectal Cancer) occurring as part of a genetic predisposition syndrome to cancer. Recent advances in oncogenetics and next generation sequencing technology have enabled the identification of new entities. This enhancement in knowledge regarding inherited syndromes predisposing to gastric cancer has consequently improved the management of patients and their families. In this context, pathologists play a major role in identifying particular morphologic entities prompting genetic investigation. The aim of this manuscript is to provide an update on the current knowledge about hereditary gastric cancer.

Abstract
A 48-year-old Japanese female with left hypochondralgia presented at our hospital. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) revealed gastric cancers and carpeting fundic gland polyposis (FGPs) without Helicobacter pylori infection. Computed tomography showed multiple liver metastases. Total colonoscopy revealed a colonic tubular adenoma but not polyposis. She was diagnosed as having advanced gastric cancer with liver metastasis and received chemotherapy. Her mother had died from gastric cancer, and her elderly brother and niece had FGPs as revealed by EGD. Thus, the pedigree was diagnosed as gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS). Germline mutation analysis exhibited a point mutation in exon1B of the APC gene (c.-191T > C). Adenocarcinoma showed a gastric mucinous phenotype and was positive for a somatic mutation of p53, suggesting that p53 mutation may play a role in FGPs carcinogenesis. This is the first family with GAPPS in Asia in whom germline mutation of APC exon 1B has been detected.

Abstract
Hereditary gastric cancer is a relatively rare disease with specific clinical and histopathologic characteristics. Hereditary gastric cancer of the diffuse type is predominantly caused by germline mutations in CDH1. The inherited cause of familial intestinal gastric cancer is unknown. Gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach is a hereditary cancer syndrome caused by germline mutations in promoter 1B of APC. Other well-defined cancer syndromes, such as Lynch, Li-Fraumeni, and hereditary breast or ovarian cancer syndromes, are associated with increased risk of gastric cancer. This article reviews important histopathologic features and emerging concepts regarding gastric carcinogenesis in these syndromes.

Abstract
