Gastric cancer distal to the cardia--prevention or cure?
1Department of Surgery, The Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK.
Abstract:
Adenocarcinoma of the stomach distal to the cardia remains one of the most common cancers in the world. The interest in the aetiology of this disease has been rekindled because of recent epidemiological and molecular studies linking this cancer to H. pylori and certain dietary factors. The authors provide an updated review of the aetiology of gastric cancer. This review seeks to summarize the disease, to propose pathways of carcinogenesis and to suggest ways in which the "traditional" risk factors may be interpreted on the basis of evolving knowledge.
