    Notes: Abstract  The goal of the project was to integrate essential elements of palliative care into the regular duties of an internal ward located in a general hospital serving a rural area. To achieve this goal, the medical and nursing staff was moderately expanded, which was made possible by a grant from the Deutsche Krebshilfe, and training and supervision were instituted. Patients with malignant diseases in advanced and terminal phases were enrolled in the project and evaluated using a specifically designed documentation system. On average, 8.5 (18%) of the 46 beds on the ward were occupied by patients being cared for as part of the project at any one time. Effective relief of pain, nausea and respiratory distress were documented. For those dying in the hospital, a single room and the presence of family members were possible in the majority of cases. A high impact on the team became apparent through an anonymous questionnaire given during supervision. The project shows that it is possible to integrate palliative care into the work of a regular internal medical ward, with positive consequences for the patients and the team.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Anhand des Krankengutes der chirurgischen Universitätsklinik Ulm von 1960–1976 werden die Behandlungsergebnisse und 5-Jahres-Überlebenszeiten von 947 Patienten, die wegen eines Magencarcinoms behandelt wurden, dargestellt. Besonders herausgestellt wird die Zunahme der Frühcarcinome infolge der intensivierten präoperativen Diagnostik. Die makroskopischen und histologischen Wachstumsformen werden aufgeführt und die sich daraus ergebenden Konsequenzen für die chirurgische Therapie abgeleitet. Es ergibt sich, daß bei Patienten unter 70 Jahren die Gastrektomie im Prinzip Anwendung finden sollte. Es wird auf die Vorteile geeigneter Rekonstruktionsverfahren hingewiesen. Ferner werden die gebräuchlichen Chemotherapie-Schemata aufgefuhrt und die an der Universität Ulm laufende adjuvante Studie erwähnt.
    Notes: Summary Based on 947 patients operated on for gastric carcinoma between 1960 and 1976, results and 5-years survival times are demonstrated. Due to intensified preoperative diagnostic methods, there is an increase in early gastric cancer. Adequate surgical measures are related to the specific morphologic and histologic behavior of the gastric cancer. It is concluded that total gastrectomy should be performed in patients under 70 years of age. Suitable reconstructive procedures seem to be of value. Furthermore, chemotherapeutic treatment is dicussed, and our controlled randomized adjuvant therapy study presented.
