What is Stomach Tumors: Causes, Symptoms, and Diagnosis about?
Stomach tumors are more common in men and in parts of Asia and Eastern Europe. Risk factors include diet high in salts, nitrates, and low in fruits/vegetables as well as H. pylori infection and partial gastrectomy. Symptoms are often non-specific like epigastric pain, nausea, and weight loss until the late stages. Investigations include endoscopy to view masses, biopsy for diagnosis, and CT or ultrasound for staging by examining for spread to lymph nodes or other organs.
