Young Age and Risk of Lymph Node Metastasis in Differentiated Type Early Gastric Cancer
2018
Background
Young patients with gastric cancer reportedly have a worse prognosis than older patients due to delayed diagnosis and more aggressive tumor behavior. However, it is unclear whether this applies to early gastric cancer (EGC), for which endoscopic resection is indicated. We investigated the association between age and lymph node metastasis (LNM).
