Gastric carcinoma still occurs in the advanced form, despite easier availability of endoscopic examinations. Symptoms, location and the degree of progression of gastric carcinoma in 186 patients treated between 1980-1997 were presented in the paper. Curative partial gastrectomy was carried out in 69 patients. The palliative procedure of partial gastrectomy, gastroenterostomy shunt and trophic fistula was carried out 117 patients. Attention was paid to the most recent methods of treatment which, hopefully, improve the results of the treatment of advanced gastric carcinoma.
