EGC at the cardia is easy to miss.
In this case, cardia cancer was detected 10 seconds after passing the throat.
Laparoscopic total gastrectomy was done.

4. Histologic type by Lauren : mixed
5. Size : 2.5x2.0 cm
6. Depth of invasion : invades submucosa (sm3) (pT1b)

8. Lymph node metastasis : no metastasis in 78 regional lymph nodes (pN0)
