Overview
Gastric cancer, despite of the great progress of currentmedicine, remains disease with a seriousprognosis. One of the reason is a large number of patients with advanced stages. The only hopefor long time survival offers radical surgery with complete tumour removal. Successful rate ofsurgical treatment depends on the stage. Early diagnosis, accurate staging and radicality of thesurgical procedure remain one of the most important prognostic factors. The review of currentdiagnostics, treatment options and possibly prevention is the topic of our work.
Key words:
gastric cancer - diagnostics - staging - treatment.
