Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Advanced gastric cancer represents a challenging and demanding aspect besetting every major national health system worldwide, and the management of metastatic patients is critical, requiring both infrastructural resources and professional involvement.
We are pleased to invite you to share measurable research initiatives that could contribute to this Special Issue of Cancers titled “Surgical Innovations in Advanced Gastric Cancer”. The aim of the present issue is to cover more experience, knowledge and technological advances in the field of advanced gastric cancer surgery. Moreover, this invitation has been sent to you on the basis of your scientific and clinical commitments.
This Special Issue aims to highlight major surgical novelties that have been introduced in advanced gastric cancer care and that are considered promising in changing such a poor prognosis, garnering a collection of ten articles reporting the most relevant experiences in the management of advanced, metastatic, oligometastatic and recurrent gastric cancer.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Gastric cancer;
- Peritoneal metastasis;
- Advanced oligometastatic-recurrent gastric cancer and palliation;
- Experimental surgery.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
