Abstract
The occurrence of gastric cancer in Japan remains high, and with wide media coverage these patients have become increasingly aware of their illness and are more open to discussion of various treatment modalities with their family, physicians, and surgeons. The spread of cancer cells to the serosal surface from gastric cancer accounts for 61.2 percent of deaths due to recurrence after curative surgery in patients with an advanced gastric cancer [1].
