Abstract
As described in Chap. 6, gastric cancer does not develop suddenly in a healthy stomach but develops through latent periods of chronic disorder. From the viewpoint of chronology, the best example of a precancerous condition is the presence of a gastric remnant after partial gastrectomy for a nonmalignant disease, most commonly peptic ulcer. The average interval from resection of the stomach to the development of the cancers in the remnant is reported by several investigators as around 20 years, and the same tendency has also been confirmed by our own experience.
