To surgery of stomach cancer

Abstract

From all organs of a person, stomach cancer is most often affected. Virchow in 1885, studying the material of the Würzburg Pathological and Anatomical Institute, found that stomach cancer occurs in 34.9% of all cancerous diseases in general. In the works that appeared later, the same approximate figures were obtained: in Haberlin, at 27511 deaths from cancer, the head was affected in 11422 cases, i.e. 41.5%. Toichkin, who developed the statistical material of the St. Petersburg City Council during the period from 1901 to 1910, found that out of 13,815 people who died of cancer in general, in 4491 cases, death occurred from stomach cancer, i.e., approximately 32.5%.
