[Surgical treatment of patients with malignant non-epithelial tumors of the stomach]

Under study were the data obtained in 29 patients with malignant nonepithelial gastric tumors, which indicated a high incidence of this affection in persons under 50. Gastric reticulosarcomas are most frequently observed. The diagnosis is very difficult to establish both before and during laparatomy. Favourable late results were most frequently noted in patients subjected to radical surgical interventions. Radical and tentative laparotomies may be followed by chemo-or radiotherapy.
