The stomach is a sack-like organ located just under the Diaphragm (Muscle under the Lungs).
Stomach Cancer, also called Gastric Cancer, is the name for cancer that begins in the stomach, generally the Stomach Lining.
This type of cancer can eventually spread to lymph nodes and organs such as the Liver, Pancreas, Colon, Lungs and Ovaries.
People occasionally confuse the stomach organ with the abdominal area, saying they have a "Stomach Ache" when really the pain could be occurring in the appendix, Small Intestine, Colon (Large Intestine) or Gall Bladder, along with the actual stomach.
The stomach can be divided into five sections, and the location of the cancer in the stomach can affect things like symptoms, Prognosis and treatment options.
