As a rule, the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract develops into a tumor. It’s the tissue that, more often than other tissues, contacts with carcinogens which are supplied with water and food
The uprise of new growths is preceded by inflammatory diseases caused by Helicobacter pylori or other common stomach pathogens. The risk factor for most types of upper digestive tract cancer is smoking, regular consumption of spicy, fatty or salty food.
At the early stages of stomach new growths, their manifestations are minimal.
As they increase, the symptoms gradually increase too:
Pain, heartburn, nausea, or vomiting, in most cases, are aggravating after a meal, but can also be troublesome on an empty stomach. Pain in the abdomen can also occur on palpation. Sometimes patients complain of a heaviness in the abdomen after eating, even if the person is not yet full.
Under unfavorable circumstances, polyps, cysts and other benign formations are prone to mutation into malignant tumors.

Treatment of inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract is carried out by a gastroenterologist, however, in cases where the run of the disease is complicated by the presence of tumors, the doctor decides on the advicability of their surgical removal.
Removal of neoplasms of the stomach or duodenum at the «Oxford Medical» clinic is performed by an open or laparoscopic method. At the early stages, polyps of the small intestine can be removed endoscopically.
Unlike classical open surgical interventions, there are practically no traces left after laparoscopic surgery and the recovery period after it is much shorter.
