Abstract

Gastric cancer is one of the most frequently encountered malignant human tumors. Cancer usually occurs, as a rule, on the background of chronic inflammatory diseases of the stomach, and it is now found that in an absolutely healthy stomach, neoplastic changes are impossible. They preceded the pre-cancerous condition that takes place with chronic anacid gastritis, callous gastric ulcer, and gastric polyps. The average, from pre-cancerous condition to cancer is from 10 to 20 years. The development of gastric cancer on the background of the foreign body is an extremely rare phenomenon. Possible causes of this transformation are the long-term presence of foreign body with the development of a circular neoplastic shaft around it. The article presents the result of surgical treatment of a patient with stomach cancer that developed on the background of a foreign body. Keywords: Gastric cancer, foreign body, diagnosis, surgical tactics, prognosis.
