| Objective: To identify independent prognostic factors after gastric resection on patients with gastric cancer. Methods: A total of 197 patients with gastric cancer, underwent gastrectomy from October. 1999 to August. 2005. were studied by univariate and multivariate analysis. Results: Of the 197 cases, the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year overall survival rate was 82.6%, 60.8% and 53.7%. respectively. The univariate and multivariate analysis showed that four types of factors, such as Borrmann types, chemotherapy for 6 cycles, pathological type and TNM staging, were the major independent prognostic factors.Conclusions: To improve the survival rate of gastric cancer, the synthetic treatment around surgery should be performed basing on biological characteristics of each patient with the TNM clinical stage and Borrmann type, etc. |
