Abstract
During the last 5 years, carcinoma of the gastric stump has become a well-known clinical entity. It refers to a carcinoma occurring in the gastric remnant after partial resection for benign disease. To rule out the presence of an occult carcinoma at the time of the original resection, a time interval of at least 5 years should have elapsed since operation. The available data indicate that, when 20 – 25 years have passed since resection, the risk of development of a stump carcinoma is increased and steadily increasing [1, 6, 19, 20]. Therefore, the threat of this late complication of a stomach resection has influenced substantially the trends of modern gastric surgery promoting the breakthrough of more conservative procedures, such as vagotomy, in the treatment of peptic ulcer.
