If left untreated, the five-year [[survival rate]]<nowiki/>s of [[gastric cancer]] range from almost no survival for [[patients]] with [[disseminated disease]] to almost 50% survival for [[patients]] with localized distal [[Gastric cancer|gastric cancers]] confined to resectable regions. Higher recurrence rates are seen in those who have piecemeal or incomplete resections. Depending on the extent of the [[tumor]] at the time of [[diagnosis]], the [[prognosis]] may vary. However, the [[prognosis]] is generally regarded as poor. [[Complications]] of [[gastric cancer]] are [[ascites]], [[gastrointestinal bleeding]], [[Metastasis|distant metastasis]] to other [[organs]], [[weight loss]], recurrence of [[cancer]], and treatment [[complications]]. The [[prognosis]] of patients with [[gastric cancer]] is related to [[tumor]] extent that includes direct [[tumor]] extension and [[lymph nodes]] involvement. The five-year [[survival rate]] for treated early [[gastric cancer]] is over 90 percent; nearly 100 percent for [[mucosal]] [[tumors]], and 80 to 90 percent for [[Submucosa|submucosal]] [[tumors]].

The [[symptoms]] of [[gastric cancer]] usually develop in the fifth decade of [[life]], and start with [[loss of appetite]] and [[loss of weight]].

Overview

If left untreated, the five-year survival rates of gastric cancer range from almost no survival for patients with disseminated disease to almost 50% survival for patients with localized distal gastric cancers confined to resectable regions. Higher recurrence rates are seen in those who have piecemeal or incomplete resections. Depending on the extent of the tumor at the time of diagnosis, the prognosis may vary. However, the prognosis is generally regarded as poor. Complications of gastric cancer are ascites, gastrointestinal bleeding, distant metastasis to other organs, weight loss, recurrence of cancer, and treatment complications. The prognosis of patients with gastric cancer is related to tumor extent that includes direct tumor extension and lymph nodes involvement. The five-year survival rate for treated early gastric cancer is over 90 percent; nearly 100 percent for mucosal tumors, and 80 to 90 percent for submucosal tumors.

Natural History

The symptoms of gastric cancer usually develop in the fifth decade of life, and start with loss of appetite and loss of weight. The symptoms of gastric cancer typically progress to dysphagia, abdominal pain, and vomiting. Without treatment, 63 percent of patients with early gastric cancer will progress to advanced disease within five years. Metastasis occurs in 80-90% of individuals with stomach cancer.[1]

Complications

Complications of gastric cancer include the following:

Recurrence:

  • Recurrence following curative resection was local or regional in 40 % and systemic in 60%.
  • Regional recurrences may be more frequent in patients treated with surgery alone or surgery plus postoperative chemotherapy without radiotheapy, and among those who have a fewer number of negative resected lymph nodes.[2]
  • Sites of regional recurrence include the luminal margins, the resection bed, and the regional nodes.[3]
  • The predominant sites of systemic recurrence are the liver and peritoneum.[4]
  • Metastatic disease beyond the abdomen is uncommonly the first site of recurrence aside from the supraclavicular nodes.[5]
  • In a Japanese series, 9.2 % with early gastric cancers had a second cancer within the first year after therapy.[6]
  • The overall incidence of recurrence is 9.5 %t at five years, 13.1 % at seven years, and 22.7 % at 10 years.[7]

Chemotherapy complications

Prognosis

Five-year survival

Prognosis with lymph node involvement

  • Long-term survival was 95 percent in patients with no lymph node involvement, 88 percent in those with one to three nodes involved, and 77 percent in those with more than three nodes involved.[17][18]
Stage 5-year relative survival (%), (2004-2010)
All stages 28.3%
Localized 64.1%
Regional 28.8%
Distant 4.2%
Unstaged 20.2%
  • Shown below is an image depicting the 5-year conditional relative survival (probability of surviving in the next 5-years given the cohort has already survived 0, 1, 3 years) between 1998 and 2010 of stomach cancer by stage at diagnosis according to SEER.
