[A clinicopathological study of recurrent gastric cancer cases treated by a resection of the remnant stomach].
Seventeen cases of a recurrent gastric cancer that were treated by a resection of the remnant stomach have been studied retrospectively. For first management 12 cases were given a Billroth 2 procedure, 4 cases a Billroth 1 procedure and 1 case a fundectomy. For the recurrent cancer, 13 cases were given a total resection of the gastric remnant and 4 cases a partial resection. The overall mortality rate was 12% and the survival rate was 58% at 1 year, and 8% at 5 years. We thus have concluded that a resection of the remnant stomach should be carried cut in cases of a recurrent gastric cancer whenever possible.
