Popis: | The aim of this study was to clarify the lymph node status in patients with submucosal gastric cancer. Between April 1994 and December 1999, 615 patients with histologically proven submucosal gastric cancer who underwent curative resection were included in this study. The results of the surgery and predictive factors for lymph node metastasis were evaluated by univariate and multivariate analyses. The accuracy of the predictive factors was assessed in a second population of a further 186 patients. Lymph node metastasis was observed in 119 patients (19.3%). Multivariate analysis showed that pathologic tumor diameter (≥20 mm) and lymphatic invasion were independent predictive factors for lymph node metastasis. The incidence of lymph node metastasis without these 2 predictive factors was 1.8% (2 of 113), and it was 51.2% (85 of 166) with the 2 predictive factors, 9.5% (14 of 148) in tumors |
