Popis: | Background In countries in East Asia, the typical treatment for curable gastric cancer is gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy. However, whether D2 lymphadenectomy is beneficial for high-risk N3 node disease remains controversial. We conducted a multi-institution retrospective study on patients with high-risk, locally advanced gastric cancer. To compare the rates of disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) between radical D2-type gastric resection and lymphadenectomy and the more limited D1 type resection and lymphadenectomy. Methods From July 2010 to June 2015, 74 patients out of 949 who underwent curative-intent R0 surgery were selected in pairs to compare the survival outcomes between those who underwent radical D2 type (n=37) vs. the more limited D1 type (n=37) gastric resection and lymphadenectomy. Results The median DFS was 9.72 and 7.81 months for the D2 and D1 types, respectively (P=0.746), and the OS was 16.39 and 15.85 months for the D2 and D1 types, respectively (P=0.937). Conclusions No statistically significant differences in DFS and OS were noted between D1 and D2 procedures for those with N3 disease. Our results support the hypothesis that a novel multidisciplinary approach rather than a surgical approach alone is needed to improve the survival outcomes of high-risk patients with N3 gastric cancer. |
