title: [Subcardial resection for gastric cancer].
abstract: The method of subtotal gastric resection for cancer, stipulating for lower esophageal sphincter and gastric cardia, was elaborated in the clinic. Good immediate results, low rate of postoperative complications, the absence of gastroesophageal anastomosis sutures insufficience together with significant improvement of functional results due to preservation of lower esophageal sphincter function permit to recommend subcardial gastric resection as a method of choice in a distal gastric third cancer as well as in the early gastric corpus cancer.
