Core Tip Due to the unfavorable prognosis of locally advanced gastric carcinoma multimodal therapy has been propagated worldwide in the last decade. European guidelines recommend a perioperative chemotherapy on the basis of a few randomized trials, that are of limited validity for certain reasons. These studies had shown a better 5-year overall survival of approximately 15%, but neither the studies nor the guidelines did focus on age and tumour localization of the patients. The goal of our study was to compare the observed effects of the randomized controlled studies to real live data from a German community hospital with a focus on patient age and tumour localization.
