Despite the declining incidence of gastric cancer it remains one of the most common malignant neoplasm being responsible for a significant percent of cancer\-related deaths. The incidence of gastric carcinoma and the relative frequency of its particular histological types show marked geographical variability. Etiopathogenesis of gastric cancer is connected to multiple environmental agents which influence each other and mutually modulate their effects, and are further influenced by individual genetical predispositions. The best known environmental agents are\: special dietary habits and Helicobacter pylori infection, especially when acquired in childhood and\/or caused by cag\-A strains. A marked inter\- and intraindividual variability of gastric carcinoma histological pattems resulted in the development ofnumerous histological classifications of this neoplasm. The most widely accepted classifications system are\: Lauren, Goseki,WHO and Ming classifications. Bormann classifications describes macroscopic forms of gastric cancer infiltrates. Most accepted gastric cancer classifications do not posses prognostic value. Prognosis in gastric cancer correlates with clinical stage of the disease \- five years survival rate in so\-called ea"]
