Figure 1

Chromoendoscopy of a differentiated adenocarcinoma. (A) A combined flat and elevated lesion with an unclear border at the lower body of the stomach is shown. (B) Endoscopic view after acetic acid was sprinkled. (C) Endoscopic view after indigo carmine was additionally sprinkled. (D) Endoscopic view after the lesion was washed with clean water. After chromoendoscopy with indigo carmine dye added to acetic acid, the lesion's borders became distinct and the clarity of the image is high. The lesion was resected by endoscopic submucosal dissection and was shown to be a differentiated adenocarcinoma.
