Para se verificar associacao entre as variaveis, utilizado o teste Qui–Quadrado de Pearson, considerando-se p ≤ 0,05, em um grau de confiabilidade de 95%. Resultados : O sexo masculino e o com maior numero de casos na proporcao de 2:1. A idade media ao diagnostico e 65,16 anos.

Methods: Retrospective study based on a survey of medical records. Analysis were made with a sampling and unequal expected ratios and contingency tables. To assess the association between variables, will be used the chi-square test, considering p ≤ 0.05, at a reliability level of 95%. Results: The largest number of cases are male, ratio of 2:1. The average age at diagnosis is 65.16 years. Caucasians followed by mulatto were the most frequent with Gastric Cancer. The most common complaint presented by these patients was abdominal pain followed by loss of appetite. Most tumors found in the gastric antrum. Fifty-nine of these patients underwent surgery with curative intent in 45. Twenty of them had some type of metastasis intraoperatively and 12 outpatients progressed to metastatic lesions.
