Abstract
Gastrectomy of gastric cancer is stressful to laborers. Their complaints and postoperative working conditions were analyzed to evaluate how they rehabilitated themselves and returned to their preoperative jobs. Early gastric carcinomas are often asymptomatic and such asymptomatic operative cases have been increasing lately. In such cases, postoperative complaints and changes of their life-style are very important to their psychophysiological conditions. It is necessary to grasp the personality traits of these laborers as well as the degree operative damages as we make our hotistic approach to them.
