title: [Gastric carcinoma. Our experience].
abstract: This study analysed 66 cases of gastric cancer from 1985 to 1992. Twenty-seven patients (41%) has been treated with anti-H2 drug, either medical care or Jerkily "a la demande": 12 patients have been treated several years. Of the 66 patients: 52 (89%) were operated on while the other 16 received medical treatment because of the extension disease and their precarious condition. Long-term 35 (67%) patients (of the 52 operated) died four years later, independently of the stage and PKT of the first and the second level. The 27 patients treated with anti-H2 drug showed the most undifferentiated grading and 88% belong to the third and the fourth stage; moreover 81% underwent first diagnostic endoscopy notwithstanding a clinical and surgical history of gastric ulcer. Is it possible, therefore, that anti-H2 drug delay the diagnosis.
