Abstract 134P
Background
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative tumour staging deviation (PTSD) on the long-term survival of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer (RGGC).
Methods
Clinicopathological data of 2 346 patients who underwent RGGC were retrospectively analysed. The preoperative tumour-lymph node-metastasis (TNM) under-staging group (uTNM) comprised patients who had earlier preoperative TNM than postoperative TNM, and the no preoperative under-staging group (nTNM) comprised the remaining patients.
Results
There were 1 031 uTNM (44.0%) and 1 315 nTNM cases (56.0%). Cox prognostic analysis revealed that PTSD independently affected the overall survival (OS) after surgery. The 5-year OS was lower in the uTNM group (41.8%) than in the nTNM group (71.6%). Analysis of surgical and pathological factors showed that among patients with pT2, pT3+4, and pN+, all patients in group nTNM underwent D2 lymph node dissection (LND), whereas 15.1%, 1.3%, and 5.5% patients in group uTNM underwent D1 + LND, respectively. Among patients with pN0, the lymph node noncompliance rate was higher in the uTNM than in the nTNM group. Logistic analyses revealed that high BMI, tumour size <2 cm, early gross typing, and differentiated tumours in the upper stomach independently affected uTNM (P < 0.05).
Conclusions
Underestimated tumour staging is not rare, which possibly results in inadequate LND and affects the long-term survival for patients undergoing RGGC. D2 LND should be carefully performed in patients who are predisposed to this underestimation.
