Abstract:
Perforated gastric cancer is relatively rare disease. Between 2006 and 2016, we treated 8 cases with perforative gastric cancer. These cases accounted for 15%of the 53 cases with the upper gastrointestinal tract perforated cases. The median age of perforated gastric cancer case was 66(37-80)years, which was significantly higher than that of perforated benign upper gastrointestinal ulcer(55, 12-97 years)(p=0.033). These patients were divided into 2 groups; 3 cases who died up to 3 months as poor prognosis group and 5 cases who survived more than 4 months as good prognosis group. Poor prognosis group tended to be higher Glasgow prognostic score(GPS)(p=0.05)and lower serum albumin level(p=0.05)than good prognosis group. GPS and serum albumin level may predict the prognosis of perforated gastric cancer patients.
