Gastric cancer trends show older patients and more proximal tumors over time. The study observed significant shifts in histological types, with a decrease in intestinal type and an increase in diffuse and mucoid types.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Oncology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Gastric cancer incidence and characteristics have evolved over decades.
  • Understanding these changes is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare age, sex, tumor location, and histological type distributions of gastric cancer between two distinct time periods.
  • To identify significant trends and modifications in gastric cancer epidemiology.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective comparative study of 377 gastric cancer cases (1942-1956) versus 359 cases (1986-1987).
  • Analysis of demographic data, tumor site, and histological classification.

Main Results:

  • Mean age at diagnosis increased from 57 to 66 years; male/female ratio remained stable.

  • Proximal stomach tumors increased (13% to 23%), while distal tumors decreased (66% to 50%).
  • Intestinal type gastric carcinoma decreased (65.6% to 52.6%), while diffuse type increased (24% to 43%). Mucoid type also decreased (10.3% to 4.4%).

    • Conclusions:

    • Significant epidemiological shifts in gastric cancer have occurred, including an aging patient population and changes in tumor location.
    • Histological type distributions have markedly changed, with a rise in diffuse and mucoid types and a decline in intestinal type.
    • These evolving patterns necessitate updated clinical and research approaches for gastric cancer management.
