  • Title: [Carcinoma of the stump after gastric resection for gastric ulcer and adenomatous polyps (author's transl)].
    Author: Wanzjan EN, Astrozhnikov YV, Tschernousov AF.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1977; 102(22):1358-64. PubMed ID: 595945.
    Abstract:
    The authors followed up 123 patients with carcinoma of the gastric stump. In this report 39 patients were analysed with carcinoma that developed after stump resection for gastric ulcer or polyps; 35 were operated on including 20 radical operations. The authors conclude that in residual and recurrent carcinoma of the gastric stump as well as in diffuse and mixed initial carcinoma stump extirpation should be the method of choice. For primary exophitic growing and especially in old and weakened patients it is more advisable to perform subtotal resection than stump extirpation.
