Gastric Cancer Treatment by Dr. Ujwal Zambare – Expert GI Surgeon in Wakad, Pune
Gastric cancer occurs when malignant (cancerous) cells form in the lining of the stomach. Risk factors include age, diet, and stomach diseases such as chronic gastritis and H. pylori infection. Symptoms may include indigestion, stomach pain, and discomfort. Gastric cancer has two main types: intestinal-type, which develops from chronic inflammation, and diffuse-type, which is more aggressive and often diagnosed at an advanced stage.
For expert diagnosis and advanced gastric cancer treatment, consult Dr. Ujwal Zambare, a renowned GI Surgeon in Wakad, Pune, specializing in minimally invasive and surgical oncology treatments.

How is it Diagnosed?
Since people with stomach cancer rarely show symptoms in the early stages, the disease is often not diagnosed until it’s more advanced. To make a diagnosis, your doctor will first perform a physical exam to check for any abnormalities. They may also order a blood test, including a test for the presence of H. pylori bacteria. More diagnostic tests will need to be done if your doctor believes that you show signs of stomach cancer. Diagnostic tests specifically look for suspected tumors and other abnormalities in the stomach and esophagus. These tests may include:
- an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy
- a biopsy
- imaging tests, such as CT scans and X-rays
Treatment
- chemotherapy
- radiation therapy
- surgery
- immunotherapy, such as vaccines and medication
