Abstrakt     Although declining in incidence in western countries during the last twenty years, gastric cancer remains an important cause of cancer-related death throughout the world. Prognosis of gastric cancer is poor, as it is usually diagnosed late. More attention should be paid to the early detection to improve the effectiveness of treatment and thus survival of patients who develop gastric cancer. Surgery remains the cornerstone of the management. The curative treatment of gastric cancer is now becoming the subject of a multidisciplinary approach. The results of individual surgical centers in Slovenia are comparable to the outcomes in leading centers in Europe.
Izvleček     Čeprav njegova incidenca po svetu in pri nas upada, želodčni rak še vedno pomembno prispeva k umrljivosti za rakom. Prognoza je slaba, ker je pogosto odkrit v napredovanem stadiju. Rezultate zdravljenja je mogoče izboljšati le z zgodnejšim odkrivanjem. V zdravljenju je pomemben multidisciplinarni pristop. Glavno vlogo v zdravljenju ima še vedno kirurgija. Rezultati zdravljenja v posameznih centrih v Sloveniji so primerljivi z vodilnimi v Evropi.
