Abstract:
Rate of non-gastrectomies in gastric cancer patients was reported. Causes of non-gastrectomy were analysed and post-operative survival time of participants was observed. Participants were 98 patients with gastric cancer who admitted to ViÖt §øc Hospital between 1993 - 1995. Age ranged from 83 to 24. Post-operative survival time was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results showed that rate of non-gastrectomies are 23.8%. Interventions included gastroenterostomy (63.3%), explorative abdominal opening (20.4%), gastrostomy (13.3%), and jejunotomy (3%). Cause of non-gastrectomy was metastasis. Rate of post-operative death was 5.1%. Mean post-operative survival time is 4.8 months.
