Stomach and duodenal ulcer as a cause of death in patients with cancer: a cohort study
Our study revealed a significantly higher risk of stomach and duodenal ulcer mortality among patients with cancer in the United States, underscoring the critical need for integrated care strategies that address both cancer and ulcer-related complications. To reduce ulcer-related mortality, we recommend the implementation of targeted prevention protocols, including routine gastrointestinal screenings for high-risk cancer patients, proactive management of ulcer risk factors, and collaboration between oncology, gastroenterology, and surgical teams.
