Abstract
Reviewing a total of 1988 surgical cases, the morphologic aspects of stomach cancer were elucidated. The statistical analyses covered the gross as well as microscopic features of the primary and the extragastric lesions, and a special interest was taken in the relationship between the nature of the primary tumor and the incidence of extragastric extension. The P.C. classification, a new grading of the cancer progress, was introduced on the basis of the extent of peritoneal dissemination which was revealed to be of great significance as a route for generalization of stomach cancer.Keywords
