  • THE CLINICOPATHOLOGICAL STUDY ON LYMPH NODE METASTASIS OF GASTRIC CANCER

    To investigate the relationship between clinicopathological features and lymph node metastasis in the primary gastric cancer and affer the basis for deciding appropriate extent of lymph node dissection, a total of 192 patients who underwent curative gastrectomy and lymph node dissection for gastric cancer were analyzed retrospectively. Result: The total rate of lymph node metastasis was 60.4%, with 28.9% of the resected lymph nodes involved. The lymph node metastasis of C, M, A region and the whole stomach were 64.6%, 57.7%, 59.1% and 90.9% respectively. The rates of the lymph node metastasis increased successively in carcinoma of early, middle and late stages (P<0.05), the rate of the infiltrative tumor (Borr Ⅲ,Ⅳ) being 76.5% which was significantly higher than that of the circumscribed tumor (Borr Ⅰ,Ⅱ) (43.2%)。 Relating with the tumor size <4cm in diameter showed lesser rate, while 4-8 cm and >8cm in diameter showed increasingly higher metastaticrate (P<0.01). As a result, we should decide the appropriate extent of lymph node dissection during the operation on the basis of clinicopathological stages, type of Borrmann’s, site and maximum diameter of gastric cancer along with the state of lymph node metastasis in carcinoma of different region of the stomach.
