Description
Summary:Gastric cancer, Stomach cancer, Elderly, Cancer registry, Comparative effectiveness research

Despite the still poor prognosis, standardised treatment has achieved improvements; nonetheless it is questionable whether all age groups have benefitted. Age and outcome need to be examined in a population-based setting.
