Don't underestimate the symptoms of early gastric cancer

Gastric cancer is a cancer with a high mortality rate. It is a common malignant tumor. The probability of gastric cancer in young people is getting higher and higher. What should we do? What are the main symptoms of early gastric cancer? Today, we invite experts to tell us in detail about the symptoms of early gastric cancer and do a good job in early prevention and treatment of the disease.

The key to improving the prognosis of gastric cancer patients is to carry out secondary prevention, that is, early detection and early treatment. The 5-year survival rate of patients with advanced gastric cancer after surgical resection is only 30-40%, while the 5-year survival rate of early gastric cancer (EGC), that is, cancer cells only infiltrate the gastric mucosa and submucosa, can be 80-90% regardless of lymph node metastasis after surgical treatment. Among them, the 10-year survival rate of small gastric cancer (SGC) and micro gastric cancer (MGC) in the initial stage can reach 100%. Therefore, the timely and accurate detection and treatment of gastric cancer in the early stage is of great significance to reducing the mortality rate of gastric cancer, so it is very important to understand the symptoms of early gastric cancer.

Among the symptoms of early gastric cancer, those with a maximum diameter of less than 1 cm are called small gastric cancer; those with a maximum diameter of less than 0.5 cm are called microgastric cancer; those with a pathological diagnosis of gastric cancer in gastric mucosal biopsy, but no cancer tissue is found in the surgical resection specimen through pathological segmental continuous section histopathological examination, are called spot cancer.
