Abstract
Preoperative therapy had a non-significant impact on survival in the entire population of gastric cancer patients. The advantage of preoperative therapy seems to be limited to patients with proximal tumors and an intestinal histology. Future studies should better evaluate the diverse response of the different phenotypes of gastric cancer to preoperative therapy.
