摘要
Introduction Gastric cancer poses an enormous burden across the globe and India in terms of cancer-related mortality. There is paucity of epidemiological and survival data among young gastric cancer patients in India. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the general characteristics, clinical profile, and survival data of gastric cancer in young patients < 30 years at tertiary care institution at New Delhi, India. Materials and Methods Young gastric cancer patients (≤30 years) who were registered over a period of 7 years (2010–2017) were analyzed at a tertiary care center. Total of 2,735 patients of gastric cancers were registered out of which 70 cases were younger than 30 years, of which 63 patients were available for final analysis and data was missing for the remaining 7 cases. All patients underwent standard diagnostic and staging investigation and were staged as per American Joint Committee on Cancer 7 staging system. Lymph node ratio was calculated as number of positive nodes by the number of lymph nodes removed and were categorized as ≤0.6 and >0.6. Minimum follow-up of 1 year was required for inclusion in the study. Twelve patients were lost to follow-up and were not included for survival analysis. Results Younger patients (≤30 years) with gastric cancer were 2.5% of total gastric cancer patients. Mean age was 24.9 years with males being involved twice as commonly as females (2.15:1). Positive family history was present in 14.2% patients and smoking was present in 57.1% patients. Metastatic disease at presentation was present in 69.8% patients, while only 6.4% patients presented with stage I/II disease. Fourteen patients underwent surgery, out of which six patients underwent partial gastrectomy and remaining eight underwent total gastrectomy with D2 nodal dissection. Median overall survival was 10.8 months (8.8–12.8) and 2-year overall survival was 15.1%. Conclusion Incidence of stomach cancer in young patients is more than expected and more than global average in India. Most of these young patients are presenting in advanced stage and survival is poor compared with typical aged patients
