摘要

The management of gastric adenocarcinoma continues to evolve. Chemotherapy is being increasingly used in both the neoadjuvant and adjuvant setting. Surgical resection of the stomach and regional lymph nodes remains the mainstay of potentially curative therapy, but significant regional differences persist in the surgical management. This review provides an update on the current literature regarding the preoperative evaluation and staging, extent of gastric resection, extent of lymph node resection, and adjuvant therapy for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma.
