چکیده

Treatment algorithm has not been established for early gastric cancer with signet ring cell carcinoma (SRC), which has a reported low rate of lymph node metastasis (LNM) similar to differentiated cancer. A cohort of 256 patients with early gastric SRC at our center between January 2002 and December 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent factors of LNM. A nomogram for predicting LNM was constructed and internally validated. Additional external validation was performed using the database from Cancer Institute Ariake Hospital in Tokyo (n = 1273). Clinical performance of the model was assessed by decision analysis of curve. The overall LNM incidence was 12.9% (33/256). The multivariate logistic model identified sex, tumor size, and LVI as covariates associated with LNM. Subsequently, a nomogram consisted of sex, tumor size, and depth of invasion was established. The model showed qualified discrimination ability both in internal validation (area under curve, 0.801; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.729-0.873) and in external dataset (area under curve, 0.707; 95% CI, 0.657-0.758). Based on the nomogram, treatment algorithm for early gastric SRC was proposed to assist clinicians in making better decisions. We developed a nomogram predicting risk of LNM for early gastric SRC, which should be helpful for patient counseling and surgical decision-making.

Predictive Factors for Lymph Node Metastasis in Signet Ring Cell Gastric Cancer and the Feasibility of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

PURPOSE Endoscopic submucosal dissection has recently been practiced on a differentiated type of early gastric cancer. However, there is no clear evidence for endoscopic treatments of signet ring cell carcinoma. The aim of this study is to identify the predictive clinicopathological factors for lymph node metastasis in signet ring cell carcinoma for assisting endoscopic submucosal dissection tr...

Liver Metastasis of Early Gastric Cancer with Mixed Histology after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection

The Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma histologically classifies endoscopically resected gastric cancer into differentiated and undifferentiated types according to the presence or absence of tubular structures on histology. The former includes papillary adenocarcinoma and tubular types, and the latter includes poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, signet ring cell carcinoma and mucino...

Early Gastric Cancer with Signet Ring Cell Histology Remained Unresected for 53 Months

The natural course of untreated patients with signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach remains poorly understood while assumptions have been made to distinguish it from other types of gastric cancer. A 74-year-old Korean woman was diagnosed with early gastric cancer with signet ring cell histology and refused surgery. A satellite lesion was identified 46 months after the initial diagnosis. The...

Gastric metastasis of mammary signet ring cell carcinoma--a differential diagnosis with primary gastric signet ring cell carcinoma.

Metastasis of breast carcinoma to the stomach is relatively uncommon, although metastasis to other organs such as lung, bone, and lymph nodes is not rare. It may cause difficulty in differentiating from primary gastric carcinoma. We report a case of signet ring cell carcinoma of the breast with metastasis to the stomach with illustrations of histologic findings of both lesions. The results of i...

Frequency and Predictive Factors of Lymph Node Metastasis in Mucosal Cancer

PURPOSE The incidence of lymph node metastasis has been reported to range from 2.6 to 4.8% in early stage gastric cancer with mucosal invasion (T1a cancer). Lymph node metastasis in early stage gastric cancer is known as an important predictive factor. We analyzed the prediction factors of lymph node metastasis in T1a cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 9,912 patients underwent radical g...
