title: [Cancer of the gastric stump after resection for ulcer].
abstract: Fourteen cases of primary cancer of the gastric stump as a long-term sequel to resection for ulcer are presented. Surgery was undertaken in all cases, though radical intervention was only possible in 6. Questions of diagnosis and surgical tactics associated with this type of neoplasia are discussed. It is felt that early ascertainment could be aided by fibrogastroscopic controls carried out on a large scale at the time of the symptomatological overture. The possibility of preventive examination is also mooted.
