Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent nonapoptotic regulated cell death, which is mainly caused by an abnormal increase in lipid oxygen free radicals and an imbalance in redox homeostasis. Recently, ferroptosis has been shown to have implications in various gastrointestinal cancers, such as gastric carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, and pancreatic cancer. This review summarises the latest research on ferroptosis, its mechanism of action, and its role in the progression of different gastrointestinal tumors to provide more information regarding the prevention and treatment of these tumors.
