IN ENGLAND the death rate from carcinoma of the stomach is falling in all age groups (Registrar General statistical review for England and Wales 1940-71). Based upon the criteria suggested by Lauren (1965) between 80 and 900o of carcinomata arising in the stomach can be subdivided into 2 main histological types, i.e. intestinal and diffuse. These 2 types are said to have different sex and age distributions and to occur in different relative proportions in populations with a high or low incidence of gastric cancer (Mufioz et al., 1968; Mufioz and Connelly, 1971). It is suggested that the intestinal type tends to affect an older age group and is distinctly more common in men, and the diffuse type affects a younger age group and almost as commonly affects women. With the intestinal type of carcinoma, there is said to be a strong association with gastritic changes and intestinal metaplasia of the neighbouring mucosa (Lauren, 1965; Correa, Cuello and Duque, 1970). These observations have supported the view that the 2 histological types may be different aetiological entities and have encouraged histological classification in the epidemiological search for risk factors. By comparing 2 groups of cases of carcinoma of the stomach collected at the same centre in 2 periods separated by 25 years, we proposed to determine firstly if and how the type of malignancy has changed and secondly the more precise localization of atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia in relation to these 2 types of cancer.
