Excellent long-term outcome is expected for early gastric cancers (EGCs) after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). However, if ESD is considered noncurative at the pathologic evaluation, additional surgery is recommended. We evaluated whether long-term outcome is compromised if additional surgery is not performed for EGCs that are out-of-indication.We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of patients...
Over the last decade, as the number of patients with early gastric cancer increased and the subsequent survival rate improved, there has been a consistent effort to verify the applicability of the sentinel node concept in gastric cancer in a bid to improve postoperative quality of life in these patients. During sentinel node navigation surgery in gastric cancer patients, intraoperative pathologic...
Extended lymph node dissection in gastric cancer (D3) was proven to have no survival benefit compared with a D2 dissection, but whether adding the superior mesenteric nodes (No. 14v) to the dissection provides survival benefit for gastric cancer patients remains controversial.From April 2001 to June 2007, 1,661 patients underwent curative resection for middle or lower third gastric cancer. Patients...
