Abstract Background Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is associated with poor prognosis in patients with duodenal cancer (DC). However, the efficacy and optimal extent of lymph node (LN) dissection have not been thoroughly discussed. Methods A total of 98 consecutive patients with DC who underwent surgical resection (pancreatoduodenectomy, n = 55; partial resection, n = 32; pancreas‐sparing total duodenectomy, n = 9) were retrospectively analyzed. The LN stations located upstream of the lymphatic flow were defined as Np stations according to tumor location, whereas the others were defined as Nd stations. The association between the dissection of each LN station and survival outcome was investigated using the efficacy index (EI; percentage of metastases to lymph nodes in each station multiplied by the 5‐year survival rate of metastatic cases). Results The survival of patients with LNM at the Nd stations (n = 6) was significantly worse than that of patients with LNM only at the Np stations (n = 20) (relapse‐free survival, median survival time [MST], 6.0 vs. 48.4 months, p |
