[Tumour frequency in autopsy cases. II. The malignant tumours of the stomach (author's transl)].
The analysis is based on the catalogue of neoplasms notifiable in the German Democratic Republic (ICD-Code Nrs. 140--209, 210.2, 211.3, 211.9, 225, 226.2, 226.3, 253.0, 253.2, 702, 757.2). At the Medical Academy of Erfurt 22255 autopsies (12212 males, 9943 females) of adults (15 years and upwards) were registrated in the period from 1950 to 1966. 1153 malignant tumors of the stomach (15.5% of autopsies and 5.2% of all tumors) were observed. The cases are distributed among 1129 epithelial and 24 mesenchymal malignant tumors. Malignant epithelial tumours of the stomach were observed in 1129 cases (5.1% of autopsies and 75.2% of all tumours); 713 males and 416 females. The frequency difference is distinct. Malignant mesenchymal tumours of the stomach were observed in 24 cases (0.1% of autopies and 0.3% of all tumours); 14 males and 10 females. Their is no difference in frequency. Age distribution, sex distribution, frequency and localization of metastases are presented. At least the agreement of clinical diagnoses and pathological findings is discussed.
