The results of treatment have been analyzed in 587 patients with stomach ulcer in 52 of whom ulcer was found to be malign. Methods of diagnosing of ulcer malignization are not reliable. Difficulties in differential histodiagnosis, absence of trustworthy diagnostic tests as well as advisability of additional mucus assays are underlined. The results of treatment depend on extension of the process and efficiency of the operation performed. In patients radically operated on for the process limited to gastric mucosa 5-year survival was 84.6%.
