The Relationship of Pathological Datas of Gastric Cancer Patients after Radical Gastrectomy with Radiotherapy

Article Preview

Abstract:

Mdthod :110 gastric cancer patients were selected from Feb 2004 to Jan 2006, who had complete pathological data and were underwent radical resection. All patients were diagnosed by endoscopy, preoperative histologic diagnosis and exclusion from distant metastasis, using D1 or D2 lymph node dissection, postoperative pathology confirmed stump negative. Univariate analysis was applied on the pathologic information and multivariate analysis was applied based on the univariate analysis. Result :(1)Univariate analysis showed that tumor diameter、histology、vascular invasion、lymphatic vessel invasion and neural invasion were correlated with T/N classification.Multivariate analysis showed that vascular invasion and lymphatic vessel invasion were correlated with T classification and lymphatic vessel invasion was associated with N classification. (2) For T and N stages, lymphatic vessel invasion was strongly related factor. Conclusion: For T and N stages,, lymphatic vessel invasion was strongly relevant factor. For patients with confirmed lymphatic vessel invasion, postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy is suggested.
