Gastric adenocarcinoma typically metastasises to the liver, peritoneum and lung. Bone metastasises are less frequent and particularly uncommon in the distal extremities. This is an unusual case of metastatic disease in the distal phalanx mimicking the presentation of osteomyelitis. This case highlights the need to remain vigilant in patients with known cancer and to always be mindful of metastatic disease, even if the presentation is atypical.

Gastric adenocarcinoma with yolk sac tumor (YST) differentiation has rarely been reported. We report a case of primary gastric adenocarcinoma with yolk sac tumor differentiation and liver metastases of the YST component in a 50-years-old patient. This was suspected due to high serum level of alpha fetoprotein in the presence of a gastric fundal tumor. Gastric carcinoma with yolk sac tumor component is a rare entity with a poor prognostic outcome.
