[Stomach cancer: surgical experience in the clinics of the Louvain University (UCL) 1969-1986].
Gastric carcinoma: surgical experience at the University of Louvain Clinics from 1969 to 1986. From january 1969 to june 1986, 201 gastrectomies were performed for gastric adenocarcinoma (curative resection in 81%, palliative resection in 19% of the patients). Hospital postoperative mortality was 6.9%. Five and ten year actuarial survival rates were, +/- 4% and 34 +/- 7%, respectively. In this series, there was a rather high percentage of early gastric carcinoma (23% of the patients), with, as expected, a high actuarial 5 year survival rate: 90 +/- 6%.
