Abstract:
After having emphasized that carcinoma of the gastric stump represents a "major" risk in patients undergoing gastric resection, the authors describe the physiopathology of the new anatomical and functional status of the gastroenteric apparatus and underline the probable etiopathogenetic stages attributable to carcinogenesis. They then describe the treatment of this neoplasia with a marked aggressive character and conclude with the affirmation that the surgeon's efforts must be focused on the correct execution of gastroresection and the follow-up of gastro-resected patients in order to allow the early identification of precancerous conditions and therefore the commencement rational oncological prophylaxis.
