Clinicopathologic Behavior of Gastric Adenocarcinoma in Hispanic Patients: Analysis of a Single Institution's Experience Over 15 Years

Hispanic ethnicity does not impact survival in gastric adenocarcinoma. However, histology, metastasis pattern, tumor localization, and other clinical parameters differ sufficiently to warrant further investigation into the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and molecular biology of gastric cancer in this population.
