Abstract:
Background and purpose: Currently endoscopic ultrasonography is clinically accepted for preoperative staging of gastric cancers. Endoscopic raucosai resection (EMR) and endoscopic subraucosal dissection (ESD) have been widely applied in the treatment of early gastric cancer. We need to improve the accuracy of pre-operative staging of gastric cancers, especially of early gastric cancers. This paper was to investigate the clinical significance of high frequency endoscopic ultrasound mini probe (UMP) in the preoperative T-staging of gastric cancer. Methods: Both UMP and MSCT were performed in 63 patients with pathologically proven gastric cancer frora Oct. 2008 to Apr.2009, and the results of UMP and MSCT were compared with surgical pathologic findings. Results: The accuracy of UMP and MSCT in T staging was 82.26% (51/62) and 88.71% (55/62) respectively, and there was no statistical difference (P>0.05). The accuracy of UMP and MSCT for early gastric cancer was 100.00% and 88.89% respectively.The accuracy of UMP and MSCT for advanced gastric cancer was 79.25% and 88.68% respectively. Conclusion: UMP appears to have a substantial diagnostic value for early stage gastric cancer. It is the approach of choice for superficial lesions.
