ABSTRACT
A descriptive and retrospective study of the 28 patients with stomach cancer, surgically
treated in "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba
was carried out from 2008 to 2013, in order to characterize them pathologically, for
whom the biopsies records were reviewed in the Pathology Department. In the series
most of the affected were from the age group 60 - 69 years (39.3%) and of the female
sex (53.5%), and the well differentiated tumors (46.4%), the antral localization (71.4%)
and the hystic diffuse type (60.7%) prevailed. Also, the metastasis presence in the
ganglion (42.8%), of vascular and lymphatic infiltration (64.2 and 67.8%, respectively),
and of
Helicobacter pylori in the malignant neoplasia (35.7%) were evidenced. Finally, it
was concluded that the patients with gastric cancer were diagnosed lately and that this
entity was manifested in a different way from what has been described in the literature
on the topic.
