Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is a carcinoma arising in the stomach remnant after previous gastric resection. It is frequently reported as a tumor with a poor prognosis and distinct biological features from primary gastric cancer (PGC). However, as it is less frequent, its profile regarding the current molecular classifications of gastric cancer has not been evaluated.
