Abstract:
Scirrhous gastric carcinoma is a special type of gastric carcinomas and accompanied with highly interstitial fibrosis and diffuse cellular infiltration.Scirrhous gastric carcinoma is mainly composed of poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma and signet-ring cell carcinoma,with the clinical features of Borramann 4,thickening and stenosis of stomach wall,high peritoneal and lymph node metastases rates and poor prognosis.R0 resection and postoperative chemotherapy with S-1 as a main way are necessary for the patients who are able to undergo curable resection.The palliative operation should be applied to patients with ileus and urinary obstructions caused by peritoneal metastasis because of limited effect of surgical treatment.Chemotherapy is the best choice for patients who are not able to undergo curable resection,conversional therapy can improve the prognosis of patients,and preoperative S-1/CDDP combination chemotherapy is an expectable therapy.Moreover,controlling peritoneal metastasis and effect of intraperitoneal chemotherapy are much anticipated.The efficiency of molecular targeted therapy by bevacizumab and gene therapy by adenovirus remain further study.
