It is anticipated that the number of elderly patients with gastric cancer (GC) will increase with population aging; however, most studies on GC set the upper age limit at 80 years old, studies on the prognosis of elderly patients with GC over 80 years old is very limited. In this study, we conducted a retrospective analysis of this sub-cohort.
