title: [Critical study on dead cases in recurrent early stomach cancer (author's transl)].
abstract: 35 deaths of 299 operated early stomach cancers have been studied retrospectively. These cases can be grouped in the following categories: 2 deaths directly due to operation, 7 due to recurrence of carcinoma, 19 due to other diseases including cancer in other sites and 7 cases in which the real causes of death could not be elucidated. Special attention was paid on the 7 recurrent cases: In 4 of 7 patients the histological study revealed lymph and blood vessels invasion in their resected stomachs, lymphnodes metastases in 5 patients and positive cut-end in 2 patients. 5 of 7 patients died within 3 years after operation.
