    Introduction: According to the statistical data proposed by the National Cancer Institute (INCA), the incidence of gastric cancer for Brazil in 2018 was 13,540 among men and 7,750 in women. In Amazonas, it was the second most common cancer in men, and the fifth in women. Objective: To draw a clinical and epidemiological profile of stomach tumors treated at Fcecon, in order to know the predominant histological type, the anatomical sublocation and to relate the socioeconomic level with the degree of staging of the patients. Methodology: We used a descriptive, cross-sectional, quantitative, retrospective study using medical record review and hospital registry information in a reference unit in oncology in the Amazon. Results: The research involved 221 gastric cancer patients treated at the institution from May 2018 to April 2019. About 34% of patients underwent gastrectomy. Regarding the operated patients, approximately two thirds (63.3%) were male, with an average of 62.1 years for men, and 57.9 for women, with the majority (63.5%) had low socioeconomic status. Regarding sublocation, the stomach body was the most affected region in 43.2% of the cases. Regarding the histological type, epithelial neoplasms represented 85.7%, and 70.0% adenocarcinoma. According to Lauren's classification, the intestinal type was more frequent. In neoplasms with informed staging, the vast majority (77.7%) was considered very advanced (III or IV). Conclusion: There is evidence of different statistics comparing socioeconomic status, patient age, anatomical sublocation and histological type of tumor. Thus, it was observed that stomach neoplasms make up an extremely essential part when compared to all neoplasms treated at this service and follow the profile described in the literature regarding anatomical sublocation, histological type, staging age, sex and educational level
