β¦ Synopsis
BACKGROUND. Although regional lymph node metastasis from intramucosal early gastric carcinoma (EGC) is rare, it is very important to clarify the characteristics of patients having lyniph nodal metastases in order to determine appropriate therapy.
METHODS. The authors investigated 1196 patients with solitary intramucosal EGC
who underwent resection at the National Cancer Center Hospital in Tokyo, with special reference to lymph node metastases. Eight clinicopathologic factors (age, sex, tumor: size, location, macroscopic type, histologic type, histologic ulceration of the tumor, and lymphatic vessel invasion) were investigated by univariate and multivariate analyses for their possible relationship to lymph node metastasis.
