Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Gastric cancer remains a significant challenge in the healthcare system. Today, complex treatment methods have become standard practice. We now have extensive data on gastric cancer treatment outcomes. However, most of these data originate from Eastern countries, making it difficult to directly apply these results to Western populations.
We conducted a retrospective analysis of medical records from patients admitted to the Department of Surgery at the Hospital of the Lithuanian University of Health Sciences, Kaunas Clinics, focusing on those diagnosed with gastric cancer. The analysis examined the impact of systemic treatments (neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy), HIPEC, and surgical techniques (open and laparoscopic) on patient survival and early and late postoperative complications.
This Special Issue invites contributions from researchers and clinicians to explore the latest findings in this critical area. We encourage the submission of original research, reviews, and clinical studies that delve into gastric cancer.
We look forward to receiving your valuable contributions to this Special Issue, which aims to shape the future of gastric cancer treatment and management.
Prof. Dr. Mindaugas Kiudelis
