Abstrakt: Background: The expansion of function-preserving surgery became possible due to a more profound understanding of gastric cancer (GC), and T1N + or T2N + gastric cancer patients might be potential beneficiaries. However, ways to evaluate the possibility of function-preserving pylorus surgery are still unknown.
Methods: A total of 288 patients at Renji Hospital and 58 patients at Huadong Hospital, pathologically diagnosed with gastric cancer staging at T1 and T2 with tumors located in the upper two-thirds of the stomach, were retrospectively enrolled from March 2015 to October 2022. Tumor regions of interest (ROIs) were manually delineated on bi-phase CT images, and a nomogram was built and evaluated.
Results: The radiomic features distributed differently between positive and negative pLNm groups. Two radiomic signatures (RS1 and RS2) and one clinical signature were constructed. The radiomic signatures exhibited good performance for discriminating pLNm status in the test set. The three signatures were then combined into an integrated nomogram (IN). The IN showed good discrimination of pLNm in the Renji cohort (AUC 0.918) and the Huadong cohort (AUC 0.649). The verification models showed high values.
Conclusion: For GC patients with T1 and T2 tumors located in the upper two-thirds of the stomach, a nomogram was successfully built for predicting pylorus lymph node metastasis, which would guide the surgical indication extension of conservative gastrectomies.
