Abstract:
Objective To investigate the association of proximal and distal resection margin (PRMIDRM) distances in RO gastrectomy with the prognosis of gastric cancer patients with no distant metastases. Methods From Jan. 2008 to Nov. 2009, a total of 288 patients with gastric cancer were selected; they received radical and RO gastrectomy, with pathological diagnosis after surgery and with complete pathological and follow-up data. The relationship of the pathological parameters with the PRM, DRM distance was analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to indentify the independent risk factors of prognosis and to evaluate the association between PRM, DRM distance and overall survival (OS). Results Increased PRM distance was significantly correlated with tumor location at the lower third of the stomach CP
