[Gastric cancer: advances in diagnosis and treatment].
The number of deaths from gastric cancer has decreased in the last decade in Chile, in spite of a constant number of admissions for the disease. The decrease in mortality may be ascribed to epidemiologic factors and advances in diagnosis and treatment of the disease. The main aspects of current radiologic and endoscopic diagnosis of gastric cancer, as well as criteria for surgical resection are discussed.
