Gastric Cancer Stomach Cancer

Stomach cancer, also known as gastric cancer, begins in the stomach, which is located in the upper middle part of the belly. It aids in food digestion. The cancer can develop in any part of the stomach, but globally, it most often occurs in the main part, called the stomach body. In the United States, it is more likely to start at the gastroesophageal junction, where the esophagus meets the stomach.
