Greater Lymph Node Retrieval Improves Survival in Node-Negative Resected Gastric Cancer in the United States
Purpose Guidelines in western countries recommend retrieving ≥15 lymph nodes (LNs) during gastric cancer resection. This study sought to determine whether the number of examined lymph nodes (eLNs), a proxy for lymphadenectomy, effects survival in node-negative disease. Materials and Methods The US National Cancer Database (2003-2011) was reviewed for node-negative gastric adenocarcinoma. Trea...
متن کاملThe prognostic value of lymph nodes count on survival of patients with node-negative gastric cancer
The retrieved lymph node (LN) count has been validated as a prognostic factor in various cancers. However, the interaction between LN counts and patients' prognosis in gastric cancer with negative-LN metastasis is not fully studied. Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER)-registered gastric cancer patients were used for analysis in this study. Patients operated on for gastric...
متن کاملPrognostic Factors on Overall Survival in Lymph Node Negative Gastric Cancer Patients Who Underwent Curative Resection
PURPOSE To assess independent prognostic factors for lymph node-negative metastatic gastric cancer patients following curative resection is valuable for more effective follow-up strategies. MATERIALS AND METHODS Among 1,874 gastric cancer patients who received curative resection, 967 patients were lymph node-negative. Independent prognostic factors for overall survival in lymph node-negative ...
متن کاملSentinel lymph node in cervical cancer
Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women. Effective screening programs can help cancer detection in early phases and reduce death. Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...
متن کاملImpact on survival of the number of lymph nodes resected in patients with lymph node-negative gastric cancer
BACKGROUND Patients with lymph node-negative gastric cancer show a better overall survival rate than those who have a pathological lymph node-positive gastric cancer. But a large number of patients still develop recurrence. We aimed to explore the significant prognostic factors of lymph node-negative gastric cancer and determine how many lymph nodes should be removed. METHODS A total of 3103 ...
