Episode Synopsis

Welcome back to Rad Onc Smart Review, where we break down the clinical decisions that matter most in radiation oncology. This is Episode six: Gastric Cancer Part one, covering Surgery and Perioperative Chemotherapy.Gastric cancer remains a major global health challenge. While less common in the United States, it’s the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, often because it's diagnosed at an advanced stage. For decades, the management of resectable disease has been an evolving story, a tug-of-war between more aggressive surgery and more effective systemic therapy. Today, we're going to trace that evolution, starting with the fundamentals of surgical resection and nodal dissection, and then walking through the landmark trials that established and then redefined the standard for perioperative chemotherapy.
