Abstract

The surgical treatment of stomach carcinoma is reassessed. Stress is laid on the more aggressive attitude with regard to advanced gastric cancer where total or partial palliative resection is the only operation offering good results. This tendency emerges both from the series presented and those reported in the literature. It is concluded that if more aggressive surgery is justified in IVth stage stomach tumours it must still depend on the patient's general condition.
