The incidence of lymph node metastasis in submucosal early gastric cancer according to the expanded criteria: a systematic review
Background For successful endoscopic treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC), absolute criteria for a curative en bloc resection were initially established to include predominantly differentiated mucosal lesions ≤ 2 cm in diameter without ulceration. These indications were subsequently expanded to i...

These indications were subsequently expanded to include larger, ulcerated, and predominantly undifferentiated mucosal lesions. In addition, differentiated type adenocarcinomas ≤ 3 cm with slight submucosal invasion of |
