If the diagnosis of gastric cancer is clear, clinical experience shows that surgical resection is still the main treatment direction. Traditional Chinese medicine can play a certain auxiliary therapeutic role, but clinically, patients with gastric cancer cannot be treated with traditional Chinese medicine by surgery, and must be treated with modern traditional Chinese medicine which is more targeted. The way of identification and treatment should be adopted, which can make the body functions adjusted and make the patients recover their vitality. It is possible that traditional Chinese medicine can improve the quality of survival of patients and inhibit the continued growth of cancer cells. Specialized traditional Chinese medicine treatment should also be carried out for the specific pathological types of stomach cancer patients, and at the same time, it should be combined with other auxiliary treatments, which can possibly enhance the survival period and cure rate of stomach cancer patients.
