[Possibilities of surgical treatment of gastric cancer recurrences depending on the type of previous resection].
The study deals with the end results of 375 surgeries performed for recurrent cancer of the stomach. Radical surgery was carried out in 168 cases (extirpation of the remaining part of stomach--140; repeated resection of stomach--12; extirpation of esophagoenterostomy--16). Stomach resection after Billroth-II with anterior long-loop colostomy created the best conditions for radical extirpation of the remaining stomach, while Billroth-I resection--the worst. The end results were worse when tumor relapsed earlier than three years after primary resection of the stomach and on sites in gastroenterostomy area, as compared to relapse at later stage and outside anastomosis area.
