Deskripsi
Postoperative abdominal infections have been associated with tumor recurrence and metastasis in patients treated for locally advanced gastric cancer. Here the authors show that infectious complications are associated with the release of neutrophil extracellular traps that facilitate gastric cancer cell extravasation and metastasis formation.
