Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical quality control is a crucial determinant of evaluating the tumor efficacy. OBJECTIVE To assess the ClassIntra grade for quality control and oncological outcomes of robotic radical surgery for gastric cancer (GC). METHODS Data of patients undergoing robotic radical surgery for GC at a high-volume center were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were categorized into two groups, the intraoperative adverse event (iAE) group and the non-iAE group, based on the occurrence of intraoperative adverse events. The iAEs were further classified into five sublevels (ranging from I to V according to severity) based on the ClassIntra grade. Surgical performance was assessed using the Objective Structured Assessment of Technical Skill (OSATS) and the General Error Reporting Tool. RESULTS This study included 366 patients (iAE group: n = 72 [19.7%] and non-iAE group: n = 294 [80.3%]). The proportion of ClassIntra grade II patients was the highest in the iAE group (54.2%). In total and distal gastrectomies, iAEs occurred most frequently in the suprapancreatic area (50.0% and 54.8%, respectively). In total gastrectomy, grade IV iAEs were most common during lymph node dissection in the splenic hilum area (once for bleeding [grade IV] and once for injury [grade IV]). The overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival of the non-iAE group were significantly better than those of the iAE group (Log rank P < 0.001). Uni- and multi-variate analyses showed that iAEs were key prognostic indicators, independent of tumor stage and adjuvant chemotherapy (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION iAEs in patients who underwent robotic radical gastrectomy significantly correlated with the occurrence of postoperative complications and a poor long-term prognosis. Therefore, utilization and inclusion of ClassIntra grading as a crucial surgical quality control and prognostic indicator in the routine surgical quality evaluation system are recommended.

Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging-guided versus conventional laparoscopic lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer: long-term outcomes of a phase 3 randomised clinical trial. Nat Commun 2023; 14:7413. [PMID: 37973806 PMCID: PMC10654517 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-023-42712-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2022] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging-guided lymphadenectomy has been demonstrated to be effective in increasing the number of lymph nodes (LNs) retrieved in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC). Previously, we reported the primary outcomes and short-term secondary outcomes of a phase 3, open-label, randomized clinical trial (NCT03050879) investigating the use of ICG for image-guided lymphadenectomy in patients with potentially resectable GC. Patients were randomly (1:1 ratio) assigned to either the ICG or non-ICG group. The primary outcome was the number of LNs retrieved and has been reported. Here, we report the primary outcome and long-term secondary outcomes including three-year overall survival (OS), three-year disease-free survival (DFS), and recurrence patterns. The per-protocol analysis set population is used for all analyses (258 patients, ICG [n = 129] vs. non-ICG group [n = 129]). The mean total LNs retrieved in the ICG group significantly exceeds that in the non-ICG group (50.5 ± 15.9 vs 42.0 ± 10.3, P < 0.001). Both OS and DFS in the ICG group are significantly better than that in the non-ICG group (log-rank P = 0.015; log-rank P = 0.012, respectively). There is a difference in the overall recurrence rates between the ICG and non-ICG groups (17.8% vs 31.0%). Compared with conventional lymphadenectomy, ICG guided laparoscopic lymphadenectomy is safe and effective in prolonging survival among patients with resectable GC.

Oncological outcomes of laparoscopic versus open radical total gastrectomy for upper-middle gastric cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy: a study of real-world data. Surg Endosc 2023:10.1007/s00464-023-10084-z. [PMID: 37198408 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-023-10084-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2022] [Accepted: 04/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/19/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic technique has been increasingly used in gastrectomy, but the safety and feasibility of the laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) for advanced proximal gastric cancer (PGC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is unclear. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 146 patients who received NAC followed by radical total gastrectomy at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from January 2008 to December 2018 was performed. The primary endpoints were long-term outcomes. RESULTS The patients were divided into two groups: 89 were in the LTG group and 57 were in the open total gastrectomy (OTG) group. The LTG group had a significantly shorter operative time (median 173 min vs. 215 min, p < 0.001), less intraoperative bleeding (62 ml vs. 135 ml, p < 0.001), higher total lymph node (LN) dissections (36 vs 31, p = 0.043), and higher total chemotherapy cycle completion rate (≥ 8 cycles) (37.1% vs. 19.7%, p = 0.027) than OTG. The 3-year overall survival (OS) of the LTG group was significantly higher than that of the OTG group (60.7% vs. 35%, p = 0.0013). Survival with inverse probability weighting(IPW) correction for Lauren type, ypTNM stage, NAC schemes and the times at which the surgery was performed showed that there was no significant difference in OS between the two groups (p = 0.463). Postoperative complications (25.8% vs. 33.3%, p = 0.215) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) (p = 0.561) between the LTG and OTG groups were also comparable. CONCLUSION In experienced gastric cancer surgery centers, LTG is recommended as the preferred option for such patients who performed NAC, owing to its long-term survival is not inferior to OTG, and it offers less intraoperative bleeding, better chemotherapy tolerance than conventional open surgery.

Reciprocity between lymphadenectomy quality and adjuvant chemotherapy compliance in gastric cancer: post hoc analysis of two randomized controlled trials. Surg Endosc 2022; 36:8774-8783. [PMID: 35578049 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09300-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 04/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of intraoperative lymph node (LN) dissection and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy on the overall survival (OS) of gastric cancer (GC) patients and their reciprocity. METHODS LN noncompliance was defined as the absence of more than one LN station, as described in the protocol for D2 lymphadenectomy in the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association. The definition of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) noncompliance was that the chemotherapy planned dose does not meet the requirements. RESULTS Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the OS of patients with major LN noncompliance was significantly lower than that of patients with nonmajor LN noncompliance, and the OS of AC noncompliance patients was significantly lower than that of AC compliance patients. If there was nonmajor LN noncompliance during surgery, the OS of patients with AC compliance was significantly higher than that of patients with AC noncompliance (P = 0.035). In the case of major LN noncompliance during surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in OS between those with AC compliance and those with AC noncompliance (P = 0.682). Multivariate Cox regression analysis including AC noncompliance indicated that major LN noncompliance was an independent prognostic factor for poor OS (P = 0.012), while AC noncompliance was not an independent prognostic factor for OS (P = 0.609). CONCLUSION Adequate lymph node dissection and adjuvant chemotherapy are both key steps to improve the awful prognosis of GC patients. Adjuvant chemotherapy may fail to remedy the poor prognosis caused by major LN noncompliance.

Shu P, Cheng L, Xie C, Zhou J, Yu Q, Dai X, Chen S, Wang Q, Cao Y, Wang T. Reverse rolling-mat type lymph node dissection is the key step to solve the operative difficulties in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy. BMC Surg 2022; 22:2. [PMID: 34996415 PMCID: PMC8742461 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-021-01460-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/24/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background We have improved and named a new reverse rolling-mat type lymph node dissection, which effectively solves the dilemma faced by the traditional lymph node dissection in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy through the optimization of the surgical procedure. However, the relevant clinical data are still scarce. The study aims to compare the clinical effects of two surgical procedure and explore the safety and feasibility of “reverse procedure”. Study design The clinicopathological data of 195 patients who underwent hand-assisted D2 radical total gastrectomy (HALTG) in our hospital from January 2011 to September 2017 were collected. A retrospective case–control study was used to compare the clinical outcomes of the two patterns of lymph node dissection. Among them, 89 patients underwent “cabbage type” lymph node dissection and 106 patients underwent the “reverse procedure” lymph node dissection. Results There were no significant differences between the two groups of patients in terms of gender, age, tumor location, incision length, postoperative hospitalization duration, pathological classification, recent complications, long-term recurrence and metastasis. The operation time of “cabbage type” group was shorter than that of “reverse procedure” group (178.35 ± 31.52 min vs 191.25 ± 32.77 min; P = 0.006). While, in the “reverse procedure” group, intraoperative blood loss was less (249.4 ± 143.12 vs 213.58 ± 101.43; P = 0.049), and there were more numbers of lymph nodes dissected (18.04 ± 7.00 vs 32.25 ± 14.23; P < 0.001). Conclusion The pattern of reverse rolling-mat type lymph node dissection in HALTG perform well in terms of safety and feasibility.

Assessment of indocyanine green tracer-guided lymphadenectomy in laparoscopic gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer: results from a multicenter analysis based on propensity matching. Gastric Cancer 2021; 24:1355-1364.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study evaluated the safety, effectiveness, and feasibility of indocyanine green (ICG) tracing in guiding lymph-node (LN) dissection during laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). METHOD We retrospectively analyzed data on 313 patients with clinical stage of cT1-4N0-3M0 who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy after NAC between February 2010 and October 2020 from two hospitals in China. Grouped according to whether ICG was injected. For the ICG group (n = 102) and non-ICG group (n = 211), 1:1 propensity matching analysis was used. RESULTS After matching, there was no significant difference in the general clinical pathological data between the two groups (ICG vs. non-ICG: 94 vs. 94). The average number of total LN dissections was significantly higher in the ICG group and lower LN non-compliance rate than in the non-ICG group. Subgroup analysis showed that among patients with LN and tumor did not shrink after NAC, the number of LN dissections was significantly more and LN non-compliance rate was lower in the ICG group than in the non-ICG group. Intraoperative blood loss was significantly lesser in the ICG group than in the non-ICG group, while the recovery and complications of the two groups were similar. CONCLUSION For patients with poor NAC outcomes, ICG tracing can increase the number of LN dissections during laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, reduce the rate of LN non-compliance, and reduce intraoperative bleeding. Patients with AGC should routinely undergo ICG-guided laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.

Comparison of submucosal and subserosal approaches toward optimized indocyanine green tracer-guided laparoscopic lymphadenectomy for patients with gastric cancer (FUGES-019): a randomized controlled trial. BMC Med 2021; 19:276. [PMID: 34702260 PMCID: PMC8549272 DOI: 10.1186/s12916-021-02125-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/13/2021] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Application of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging is effective in guiding laparoscopic radical lymphadenectomy for gastric cancer. However, the optimal approach for indocyanine green injection is controversial. Therefore, the objective of this study was aimed to compare the efficacy and ICG injection between the preoperative submucosal and intraoperative subserosal approaches for lymph node (LN) tracing during laparoscopic gastrectomy. METHOD This randomized controlled trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04219332) included 266 patients with potentially resectable gastric cancer (cT1-T4a, N0/+, M0) enrolled from a tertiary teaching center between December 2019 and October 2020. The primary endpoint was total number of retrieved LNs. RESULTS In total, 259 patients (n = 130 and n = 129 in the submucosal and subserosal groups, respectively) were included in the per-protocol analysis. There are no significant differences in total number of retrieved LNs between the two groups (49.8 vs. 49.2, P = 0.713). The rate of LN noncompliance in the submucosal group was comparable to that in the subserosal group (32.3% vs. 33.3%, P = 0.860). No significant difference was found between the submucosal and subserosal groups in terms of the incidence (17.7% vs. 16.3%; P = 0.762) or severity of postoperative complications. The mean fluorescence cost in the submucosal group was higher than that in the subserosal group ($335.3 vs. $182.4; P < 0.001). The overall treatment satisfaction score was lower in the submucosal group than in the subserosal group (70.5 vs. 76.1%, P = 0.048). CONCLUSION ICG administered by subserosal injection was comparable to that administered by submucosal injection for lymph node tracing in gastric cancer. However, the former approach imposed a lower economic and mental burden on patients undergoing laparoscopic D2 lymphadenectomy. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04219332 .

East meets West: the initial results of laparoscopic gastric cancer resections with Eastern principles in a single Western centre - a propensity score-matched study. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2021; 406:2699-2708. [PMID: 34331126 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-021-02283-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We compared the initial experience of totally laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery with Eastern principles with the results of propensity score-matched counterparts operated with open surgery. METHODS From 1163 patients stored in our database, 62 PSM patients were selected for this study. The quality control was assured with video documentation and standardisation of the procedures. RESULTS According to the distribution of age, comorbidities, and general health, patients in the LG and OG were well-balanced. Most of the patients in both groups had advanced gastric cancer (69.3%). In the OG, 67.8% of patients received a total gastrectomy, as well as 54.8% of patients in the LG. There was no significant difference in the postoperative mortality between groups. The recovery of bowel function was significantly faster, and postoperative pain was significantly decreased in the LG. Compared to the OG, the inflammatory response was significantly smaller in the LG. There was no significant difference in the overall survival between LG and OG patients. CONCLUSION We have shown that laparoscopic gastrectomy with Eastern principles can be safely introduced in a high-volume Western centre with sufficient laparoscopic training. We have also shown that laparoscopy offers a significant faster bowel function recovery, less postoperative pain, and a smaller inflammatory response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the short-term outcomes of patients with GC who received RDG or LDG. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Despite the increasing use of RDG in patients with GC, its safety and efficacy compared to those of LDG have not been elucidated in a randomized controlled trial. METHODS Three hundred patients with cT1-4a and N0/+ between September 2017 and January 2020 were enrolled in this randomized controlled trial at a high-volume hospital in China. The short-term outcomes were compared between the groups. RESULTS The modified intention-to-treat analysis included data from 283 patients (RDG group: n = 141) and (LDG group: n = 142). Patients in the RDG group exhibited faster postoperative recovery, milder inflammatory responses, and reduced postoperative morbidity (9.2% vs 17.6%, respectively, P = 0.039). Higher extraperigastric lymph nodes (LNs) were retrieved in the RDG group (17.6 ± 5.8 vs 15.8 ± 6.6, P = 0.018) with lower noncompliance rate (7.7% vs 16.9%, respectively, P = 0.006). Additionally, patients in the RDG group were more likely to initiate adjuvant chemotherapy earlier [median (interquartile range) postoperative days: 28 (24-32) vs 32 (26-42), P = 0.003]. Although total hospital costs were higher in the robotic group than in the laparoscopic group, the direct cost was lower for RDG than for LDG (all P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS RDG is associated with a lower morbidity rate, faster recovery, milder inflammatory responses, and improved lymphadenectomy. Additionally, faster postoperative recovery in the RDG group enables early initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. Our results provide evidence for the application of RDG in patients with GC.

Abstract
Purpose Gastric cancer (GC) is aggressive cancer with a high mortality rate worldwide. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation is related to tumorigenesis, which is dynamically regulated by m6A modulators ("writer," "eraser," and "reader"). We conducted a comprehensive analysis of the m6A genes of GC patients in TCGA datasets to identify the potential diagnostic biomarkers. Materials and Methods We analyzed the expression profile of m6A genes in the TCGA cohort and constructed a diagnostic-m6A-score (DMS) by the LASSO-logistic model. In addition, by consensus cluster analysis, we identified two different subgroups of GC risk individuals by the expression profile of m6A modulators, revealing that YTHDF1's expression variation profile in GC diagnosis. We also performed RT-qPCR and WB verification in 17 pairs of GC specimens and paired adjacent non-tumor tissues and GC cell lines, and verified the expression trend of YTHDF1 in five GEO GC datasets. YTHDF1 expression and clinical features of GC patients were assessed by the UALCAN. Results The DMS with high specificity and sensitivity (AUC = 0.986) is proven to distinguish cancer from normal controls better. Moreover, we found that the expression profile variation of YTHDF1 was significantly associated with the high-risk subtype of GC patients. RT-qPCR and Western blot results are consistent with silicon analysis, revealing that YTHDF1's potential oncogene role in GC tumor. Conclusion In conclusion, we developed the m6A gene-based diagnostic signature for GC and found that YTHDF1 was significantly correlated with the high-risk subtype of GC patients, suggesting that YTHDF1 might be a potential target in GC early diagnosis.

Safety and Efficacy of Indocyanine Green Tracer-Guided Lymph Node Dissection During Laparoscopic Radical Gastrectomy in Patients With Gastric Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial. JAMA Surg 2020; 155:300-311. [PMID: 32101269 DOI: 10.1001/jamasurg.2019.6033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 149] [Impact Index Per Article: 37.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Importance The application of indocyanine green (ICG) imaging in laparoscopic radical gastrectomy is in the preliminary stages of clinical practice, and its safety and efficacy remain controversial. Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of ICG near-infrared tracer-guided imaging during laparoscopic D2 lymphadenectomy in patients with gastric cancer. Design, Setting, and Participants Patients with potentially resectable gastric adenocarcinoma (clinical tumor stage cT1-cT4a, N0/+, M0) were enrolled in a prospective randomized clinical trial at a tertiary referral teaching hospital between November 2018 and July 2019. Patients were randomly assigned to the ICG group or the non-ICG group. The number of retrieved lymph nodes, rate of lymph node noncompliance, and postoperative recovery data were compared between the groups in a modified intention-to-treat analysis. Statistical analysis was performed from August to September 2019. Interventions The ICG group underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy using near-infrared imaging after receiving an endoscopic peritumoral injection of ICG to the submucosa 1 day before surgery. Main Outcomes and Measures Total number of retrieved lymph nodes. Results Of 266 participants randomized, 133 underwent ICG tracer-guided laparoscopic gastrectomy, and 133 underwent conventional laparoscopic gastrectomy. After postsurgical exclusions, 258 patients were included in the modified intention-to-treat analysis, which comprised 129 patients (86 men and 43 women; mean [SD] age, 57.8 [10.7] years) in the ICG group and 129 patients (87 men and 42 women; mean [SD] age, 60.1 [9.1] years) in the non-ICG group. The mean number of lymph nodes retrieved in the ICG group was significantly more than the mean number retrieved in the non-ICG group (mean [SD], 50.5 [15.9] lymph nodes vs 42.0 [10.3] lymph nodes, respectively; P < .001). Significantly more perigastric and extraperigastric lymph nodes were retrieved in the ICG group than in the non-ICG group. In addition, the mean total number of lymph nodes retrieved in the ICG group within the scope of D2 lymphadenectomy was also significantly greater than the mean number retrieved in the non-ICG group (mean [SD], 49.6 [15.0] lymph nodes vs 41.7 [10.2] lymph nodes, respectively; P < .001). The lymph node noncompliance rate of the ICG group (41 of 129 patients [31.8%]) was lower than that of the non-ICG group (74 of 129 patients [57.4%]; P < .001). The postoperative recovery process was comparable, and no significant difference was found between the ICG and non-ICG groups in the incidence (20 of 129 patients [15.5%] vs 21 of 129 [16.3%], respectively; P = .86) or severity of complications within 30 days after surgery. Conclusions and Relevance Indocyanine green can noticeably improve the number of lymph node dissections and reduce lymph node noncompliance without increased complications in patients undergoing D2 lymphadenectomy. Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging can be performed for routine lymphatic mapping during laparoscopic gastrectomy, especially total gastrectomy. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03050879.

Comparative outcomes between totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy with the modified overlap method for early gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer: review of 149 consecutive cases. Wideochir Inne Tech Maloinwazyjne 2020; 15:437-445. [PMID: 32904610 PMCID: PMC7457201 DOI: 10.5114/wiitm.2020.96098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Accepted: 05/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) for advanced gastric cancer (AGC) has not been conclusively substantiated. Aim To evaluate TLTG treatment of AGC by comparing its effectiveness and surgical outcomes to those of TLTG treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC). Material and methods We performed TLTG with the (modified) overlap method for 149 gastric cancer cases between March 2012 and December 2018. We evaluated clinicopathologic characteristics, complications (including esophagojejunostomy site complications), and surgical outcomes. We also evaluated these variables in terms of their associations with EGC and AGC. Results Ninety-two males and 57 females, with a mean age of 60.7 years, were included. The mean operation time was 147.7 min. The mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 39.6. Thirteen (8.7%) patients experienced early complications, and 6 (4.0%) experienced late complications (Clavien-Dindo classification ≥ III). Eight (5.4%) patients underwent reoperation, and 8 (5.4%) were readmitted due to complications. There were no statistically significant differences in operation time, hospital stay, or surgical mortality between EGC and AGC. However, there were significant differences in early complications, late complications, rate of reoperation, and rate of readmission between EGC and AGC. Conclusions Although it has some limitations, TLTG with the (modified) overlap method for AGC treatment is feasible, safe, and associated with favorable outcomes.

Intraoperative Surrogate Indicators of Gastric Cancer Patients' Long-Term Prognosis: The Number of Lymph Nodes Examined Relates to the Lymph Node Noncompliance Rate. Ann Surg Oncol 2020; 27:3281-3293. [PMID: 32212034 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-020-08387-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of examined lymph nodes (ExLNs) and the rate of lymph node (LN) noncompliance are two independent indicators for evaluating the oncological efficacy for radical gastric cancer (GC) surgery. There are no studies to prove the relationship between these two indicators and their influence on the long-term prognosis of GC patients. METHODS The clinicopathological data of 1872 patients with radical GC resection with pathological stage pT2-4N0-3M0 from June 2007 to June 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Noncompliance was defined as patients with more than one or more LN stations absence as described in the protocol for lymphadenectomy in the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association. RESULTS Among 1872 patients, 941 (50.3%) had complete LN compliance, 469 (25.1%) had minor LN noncompliance, and 462 (24.6%) had major LN noncompliance. Logistic regression analysis showed that cT staging and ExLNs were independent risk factors for LN noncompliance. In the whole group, Kaplan-Meier survival curve elucidated that overall survival (OS) differences of ExLNs ≤ 25 and ExLNs > 25 were statistically significant (p < 0.001). Stratified analysis of LN noncompliance elucidated no statistically significant difference in OS of these two group. Multivariate COX regression analysis suggested that LN noncompliance was an independent prognostic factor for OS, whereas ExLNs was no longer an independent prognostic factor for OS. CONCLUSIONS The increase number of ExLNs can improve the OS of GC patients, which depends on the decrease of LN noncompliance rate. As surrogate indicators for long-term prognosis of GC patients, LN noncompliance rate was better than ExLNs number.
