Abstract 178P
Background
Although splenic hilar lymph node (no.10 LN) dissection did not prolong survival in proximal gastric cancer, B4-type gastric cancer remains uninvestigated for the necessity of no.10 LN dissection. This is the first study investigating the treatment effect of no.10 LN dissection in B4-type gastric cancer.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent total gastrectomy for B4-type gastric cancer between 2006 and 2016 in four major institutions in Korea. Using the inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) using the propensity score, the long-term survival was compared between patients with and without no.10 LN dissection.
Results
There were 540.4 patients in the no.10-dissection group and 532.69 patients in the no-dissection group in the IPTW sample. The IPTW sample showed well-balanced clinicopathological characteristics between the two groups. The no.10-dissection group showed significantly better survival than the no-dissection group (5-ysr 45.7% vs. 38.6%, p=0.036). Multivariate analysis revealed that no.10 LN dissection was an independent prognostic factor (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 0.747, 95% CI = 0.593 – 0.940) after adjusting for other prognostic factors.
Conclusions
No.10 LN dissection during total gastrectomy may prolong survival in B4-type gastric cancer. A large randomized controlled trial may be warranted to validate these results.
