Overview
Patients with stomach cancer generally appear weak. Common physical examination findings include abdominal distention, palpation of an abdominal mass, and pallor. Leser-Trelat sign and presence of Virchow's node (left supraclavicular lymphadenopathy), Sister Mary Joseph nodule (visible periumbilical nodule), Blumer's shelf (rectal mass/shelf on rectal exam) and/or Trousseau's syndrome (migratory phlebitis) on physical examination are highly suggestive of stomach cancer
Physical Examination
General Appearance
- Patients with gastric cancer are generally weak due to weight loss.
Skin
- Pallor.
- Jaundice may appear if bile duct obstruction occurs.[1]
- Acanthosis nigricans: Velvety and hyperpigmented patches on skin folds.[2]
- Leser-Trelat sign: Acute-onset multiple seborrheic keratosis lesions that are usually located on the patient's back.[3]
Neck
Abdomen
- The presence of a palpable abdominal mass is the most common physical finding.[5]
- Abdominal distention.
- Sister Mary Joseph nodule: A visible periumbilical nodule that is highly suggestive of umbilical metastasis.
- Splenomegaly.
- Ascites: It can be the first indication of peritoneal carcinomatosis.
- A palpable liver mass: It is often multifocal or diffuse, usually associated with an elevation in the serum alkaline phosphatase concentration.
Rectum
- Blood on rectal exam.
- Blumer's shelf: Rectal mass/shelf palpable on rectal exam.[6]
Genitourinary
- Ovarian mass may be suggestive of Krukenberg syndome.[7]
Extremities
Paraneoplastic syndrome manifestations
- Microangiopathic hemolytic anemia.[8]
- Membranous nephropathy.[9]
- Trousseau's syndrome: Hypercoagulable states.[10]
- Polyarteritis nodosa.[11]
