Stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, develops in the lining of the stomach. It may progress silently in early stages, making timely diagnosis and expert treatment essential. We provide advanced, personalized care for effective cancer management and recovery.
Stomach cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the stomach lining. Most cases are adenocarcinomas that develop from mucus-producing glands. Over time, these cells may spread to nearby organs or distant parts of the body.
Early diagnosis and proper treatment significantly improve survival rates. Dr. Kumardeep Dutta Choudhury provides advanced, patient-centric stomach cancer treatment with modern oncology techniques for the best outcomes.
There are many ways that stomach cancer can be caused, including Helicobacter pylori infection, diet high in smoked or salted foods, genetic mutations, and chronic gastritis.
The majority of the cases are not inherited, but inheritance can be present in some genetic conditions, such as hereditary diffuse gastric cancer (HDGC).
Early signs are persistent indigestion, bloating, or discomfort in the upper abdomen.
Many risk factors can be lowered by adopting a healthy lifestyle, including avoiding smoked or salted foods, quitting smoking, and maintaining a balanced diet.
The length of treatment depends on the type of treatment and the stage of cancer a person has. For example, a course of chemotherapy might take several months, but surgery might take a few weeks to recover from.
