However, there are many uncertain areas such as indications of EIR, best treatment methods, management of complications and follow-up methods after the procedure. Host studies on this topic have been carried out by researchers in Japan. In Korea, gastric cancer is the most common malignant disease, and the second leading cause of cancer death. In these days, EIR for EGC is widely performed in many centers in Korea. In this review, we will provide an overview of the bechniques and outcomes of EIR in Korea.展开更多

METHODS: Data were retrospectively collected from a single tertiary referral center. Of 981 EGC patients surgically treated between December 2003 and October 2007, 73 consecutive EGC patients with two or more microsatellite instability (MSI) mutation [high MSI (MSI-H)] and 146 consecutive EGC patients with one or no MSI mutation (non-MSI-H) were selected. The endoscopic and clinicopathologic features were compared between the MSI-H and non-MSI-H EGC groups.RESULTS: In terms of endoscopic characteristics, MSI-H EGCs more frequently presented with elevated pattern (OR 4.38, 95% Cl: 2.40-8.01, P 〈 0.001), moderate- to-severe atrophy in the surrounding mucosa (OR 1.91, 95% CI: 1.05-3.47, P = 0.033), antral location (OR 3.99, 95% CI: 2.12-7.52, P 〈 0.001) and synchronous le- sions, compared to non-MSI-H EGCs (OR 2.65, 95% CI: 1.16-6.07, P = 0.021). Other significant clinicopatholog- ic characteristics of MSI-H EGC included predominance of female sex (OR 2.77, 95% CI: 1.53-4.99, P 〈 0.001), older age (〉 70 years) (OR 3.30, 95% CI: 1.57-6.92, P = 0.002), better histologic differentiation (OR 2.35, 95% Cl: 1.27-4.34, P = 0.007), intestinal type by Lau- ren classification (OR 2.34, 95% CI: 1.15-4.76, P = 0.019), absence of a signet ring cell component (OR 2.44, 95% CI: 1.02-5.86, P = 0.046), presence of mu- cinous component (OR 5.06, 95% Cl: 1.27-20.17, P = 0.022), moderate-to-severe lymphoid stromal reaction (OR 3.95, 95% CI: 1.59-9.80, P = 0.003), and co-exist- ing underlying adenoma (OR 2.66, 95% CI: 1.43-4.95, P = 0.002). CONCLUSION: MSI-H EGC is associated with unique endoscopic and clinicopathologic characteristics includ- ing frequent presentation in protruded type, co-exist- ing underlying adenoma, and synchronous lesions.展开更多

Methods Data from 70 cases of poorly differentiated EGC treated with surgery were collected.The association between clinicopathologic factors and the presence of LNM was retrospectively analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results Univariate analysis showed that tumor size,depth of invasion,and lymphatic vessel involvement(LVI) were the significant and independent risk factors for LNM(all P<0.05).The LNM rates were 6.9%,45.5%,and 60.0%,respectively.There was no LNM in 25 patients without the above three risk factors. Conclusions Laparoscopic surgery is a sufficient treatment for intramucosal poorly differentiated EGC if the tumor is less than or equal to 2.0 cm in size and when LVI is absent upon postoperative histological examination.展开更多

METHODS From January 1999 to June 2011, 352 patients were treated for undifferentiated EGC in our hospital. All patients had undergone gastrectomy with regional lymphadenectomy. We used univariate and multivariate associated with lymph node entiated EGC. analyses to determine the features metastasis in patients with undiffer- RESULTS Signet ring cell carcinoma (SRC) was more common in patients with undifferentiated EGC than other undifferentiated carcinoma (UDC). SRC had a tendency to be confined to the mucosa, with a smaller size than other UDC. The incidence of LNM for SRC was lower than that for other UDC. Multivariate analysis showed that LNM was associated with the sex, tumor size, depth of invasion, lymphovascular invasion, and histological type. CONCLUSION Complete endoscopic resection is suitable for SRC- type intramucosal EGC, which is less than 2 cm in diameter without lymphovascular invasion in the postoperative histological examination.展开更多
