[Staging of gastric carcinoma and consequential therapeutic protocols].
The Authors examine the most recent diagnostic methods of studying gastric carcinoma illustrating their limits and peculiarities. It is underlined that only an integrated use of these diagnostic methods may allow a right staging of the disease, which is very important for a correct therapeutic approach. After a review of the literature the Authors discuss on the extent gastric resection and lymphadenectomy must have to be considered radical and, at the same time, curative.
