Abstract:
Objective To examine the ability of cancer metastasis to lymph nodes by study of the h(?)o,(?)thology of early gastric cancers. Methods Eighty-one cases of early gastric cancers with lymph node(?)etastasis were used as metastatic group. Another randomly selected 81 cases of early gastric cancer without lymph node metastasis were used as control group. Both groups consisted of 11 cases of intramucosal cancer and 70 cases of submucosal cancer. The location of cancers in tissue was further classified as two categories; the superficial lesions and invasive fronts. In addition, the gastric cancers were hislopathologically divided into three subtypes: differentiated, undifferentiated and the mixed type. The histopathological classification and location of cancers in tissue were similar between the two groups. Results In metastatic group, 40. 7% of the cancer revealed lower differentiation in invasive fronts, much higher than 11.9% in control group (P
