Abstract
- Purpose: Limited gastrectomy has been generally performed in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to identify risk factors for stage underestimation in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer. Methods: This study reviewed the medical records of 566 patients who underwent gastrectomy for clinical T1N0 gastric cancer. Results: The tumor stage was underestimated in 122 (21.6%) patients. The relapse-free survival rate was significantly lower in the patients with pathological stage II (P = 0.021) and III (P < 0.001) disease than in those with pathological stage IA disease. In the multivariate analysis, a location in the upper third of the stomach, tumor size of ≥ 30 mm, undifferentiated adenocarcinoma and clinical tumor depth of SM were identified as independent risk factors for pathological stages II and III. The rate of pathological stages II and III was 0% in the patients with no risk factors, 3% in those with 1 risk factor, 10.5% in those with 2 risk factors, 19.8% in those with 3 risk factors and 50% in those with 4 risk factors. Conclusions: Location, tumor size, undifferentiated adenocarcinoma and clinical tumor depth were independent risk factors for pathological stages II and III in clinical T1N0 gastric cancer.
