title: [Degree of parietal penetration of gastric cancer in relation to medium- and long-term survival].
abstract: The Authors analysed their experience about gastric carcinoma, with particular reference to short, middle and long time survival in relation to the degree of parietal penetration. In the patients without remote metastases, the survival till 5 years depends mainly on this factor, whereas the lymphonodal spreading plays a secundary rôle, especially in the cases where the tumour deeply infiltrated the gastric wall. Lymphoadenectomy, therefore, seems essential in cases of neoplasm with low degree of parietal penetration, whereas in those with high degree it does not seem determinant on the remote results.
