Abstract:
ObjectiveTo summarizeand the law of lymph node metastases from adenocareinoma of esophagogastric junction ( AEG),analyses the extent of lymphadenectomy for AEG.Methods198 cases of AEG had been retrospectively analyzed from 2006.6.6 to 2010.12.31,and kept detailed record of the operation type、Siewert's type、TNM stage and group of metastatic lymph nodes.ResultsThe thoraco-abdominal two field lymph node dissection had been performed for 198 AEG,the total number of lymph nodes had been dissected was 3069,the average number was 15.50,the number of metastases lymph nodes was 859.In the 198 AEG,132 cases with lymph node positive,The metastatic rate and incidence was 66.67％ and 27.99％,respectively.The manner of the metastasis about 130 cases was station by station and 2 cases was skipping over station,accout for 98.48％ and 1.52％ of all nodes-positive cases,1 case skiped to left gastric and celiac axis and another case skiped to tracheal bifurcation.The location of positive lymph nodes about Siewert Ⅰ and Ⅱ were recorded:tracheal bifurcation(6.25％,3.33％ ) 、lower posterior mediastinum and paraoesophageai(25.00％,14.67％ ),right paracardiac (47.92％,52.00％ ),left paracardiac (31.25％,36.67％ ) 、lesser curvatura(43.75％,43.33％ ),greater curvatura( 27.08％,22.00％ ) 、left gastric and celiac axis( 27.08％,30.00％ ).The lymph nodes metastastic rate of stage T1 + T2 and T3 + T4 were 40.43％,74.83％,respectively,the difference were significantly.The lymph nodes metastastic rate of different tumor length were analyzed,≤ 3cm group were 40.74％,3 ～5cm group were 70.71％ and ≥5cm group were 88.89％,the difference were significantly;but there were no significant difference related to different differentiation grades and different Siewert types.The mediastinal lymph node metastase rates between Siewert Ⅰ (27.08％) and Siewert Ⅱ (14.67％) were significant difference,but the difference were not found in pericardiac lymph nodes.ConclusionSiewert Ⅰ 、Ⅱ AEG trend to metastasized to middle and low mediastinal and pericardiac,the modified left thansthoracic route and two field lymph node dissection maybe suitable to the lymphadenectomy for AEG.
