<prompt> An adult presented with hemetemesis and upper abdominal pain. Endoscopy revealed a growth at the pyloric antrum of the stomach. CT scan showed growth involving the pyloric antrum without infiltration or invasion into surrounding structures and no evidence of distant metastasis. At Laparotomy neoplastic growth was observed to involve the posterior wall of stomach and the pancreas extending 6cm up to tail of pancreas. What will be the most appropriate surgical management?Closure of the abdomenAntrectomy and vagotomyPaial Gastrectomy Distal pancreatectomyPaial Gastrectomy Distal pancreatectomy splenectomy  <response>: Gastric cancer have various treatment modalities. Based on this scenario, this patient falls in to T4N0M0, i.e., tumor spreading to adjacent tissues pancreas, no regional lymphnodes involvement and no metastasis will have to go paial gastrectomy and distal pancreatectomy.
