Abstract:
With the development of endoscopic technology,the detection rate of early gastric cancer has increased in recent years. Lymph node metastasis is of crucial importance for planning appropriate treatment and determining prognosis in patients with early gastric cancer. Accurate assessment of lymph node status preoperatively can help for choosing the optimal treatment strategy,thereby reducing surgical injury,improving postoperative quality of life and improving the long-term outcome. This article reviewed the advances in research on clinical detection methods of lymph node metastasis in early gastric cancer.
