Gastric well-differentiated neuroendocrine (carcinoid) tumor arising in autoimmune atrophic gastritis. The synaptophysin (red) - ki-67 (brown) combo stain is lovely; note the enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cell hyperplasia in the flat mucosa. This tumor is from the gastric body, which lacks oxyntic mucosa (parietal and chief cells).
