Abstract
Gastric carcinogenesis is associated with Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) infection and occurs through histologic gastric cancer precursor lesions (GCPL). This protocol will discuss intestinal gastric cancer. It does not cover prevention of diffuse and cardia gastric cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, or hereditary syndromes. The most significant factors that cause an increased risk of gastric cancer are family history of the disease and the presence of GCPL. The two strategies evaluated to reduce the incidence and/or mortality of gastric cancer are eradication of H. pylori and monitoring and/or endoscopic treatments.
