Gastric collision tumors are exceptionally uncommon, and their endoscopic and pathological features remain poorly defined. Here, we report a gastric collision tumor composed of a primary gastric tubular adenocarcinoma and metastatic adrenocortical carcinoma. Adrenocortical carcinoma is a highly aggressive malignancy characterized by marked local invasiveness and a strong propensity for distant metastasis, most commonly involving solid organs. In contrast, metastasis to hollow visceral organs is very rare, with gastric involvement reported only once previously, where it mimicked a primary gastric malignancy. To date, gastric collision tumors composed of a primary gastric carcinoma and a metastatic extra-gastric malignancy have not been described. This report highlights the diagnostic challenges of atypical gastric lesions and underscores the importance of careful endoscopic, histopathological, and immunohistochemical evaluation in identifying collision tumors, as accurate recognition directly impacts staging, management, and prognosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10668969261437733","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,31]],"date-time":"2026-03-31T13:21:23Z","timestamp":1774963283000},"page":"1643-1648","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Collision Tumor in the Stomach: Tubular Gastric Adenocarcinoma With Metastatic Adrenocortical Carcinoma\u2014A Rare Encounter on an Endoscopic Biopsy"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Palak","family":"Arora","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0660-9939","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Md Ali","family":"Osama","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7597-4895","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rajni","family":"Yadav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shivanand","family":"Gamanagatti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chethan","family":"R","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Amit","family":"Chavan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"All India Institute of Medical Sciences"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(19801215)46:12<2702::AID-CNCR2820461228>3.0.CO;2-M"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000514395"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2017.06.055"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_5_2","first-page":"1410","article-title":"Gastric collision tumour with probable ectopic pancreatic origin","volume":"16","author":"Gonz\u00e1les JFO","year":"2022","unstructured":"Gonz\u00e1les JFO, Arroyo-G\u00e1rate R, Estrella MAL, Cerrillo G, Medinae SC.
