A 41-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital for epigastralgia. She had been admitted to another hospital for fundic gland polyposis (FGP) without any symptoms, and no malignancy had been noted in her previous endoscopy. However, a biopsy performed at our hospital revealed adenocarcinoma, and computed tomography (CT) revealed multiple liver and peritoneal metastases. We clinically suspected gastric adenocarcinoma and proximal polyposis of the stomach (GAPPS) and indicated genetic testing. The point mutation in exon 1B of APC was revealed. She was diagnosed with GAPPS with multiple liver metastases and underwent systemic chemotherapy. She has two older brothers who also have FGP. The same genomic mutation was observed in both brothers and their mother, and they were also diagnosed with GAPPS. The brothers underwent prophylactic laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D1 lymph-node dissection.
