Measurement of tumor volume is not superior to diameter for prediction of lymph node metastasis in early gastric cancer with minute submucosal invasion
BACKGROUND/AIM: The current indication for endoscopic resection in early gastric cancer (EGC) with minute (< 500 µm) submucosal invasion is based on tumor diameter, which may be insufficient to predict lymph node metastasis (LNM). We investigated whether tumor volume might more accurately predict...
