Abstract

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is accepted as a standard treatment in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) who have a negligible risk of lymph node metastasis. The aim of this study was to compare the short-term and long-term outcomes between ESD and surgery in patients with EGC that fulfilled the expanded indication of ESD on their final pathologic report. We reviewed the clinical data of patients who underwent gastric ESD and surgery between January 2007 and December 2012. Patients with pathologically confirmed EGC that fulfilled the expanded indication of ESD on their final pathologic report were analyzed. Among 2023 patients, 817 (40.4%) underwent ESD and 1206 (59.6%) underwent surgery. The proportion of cases meeting the absolute indication was significantly higher in the ESD group than in the surgery group (66.0 vs. 26.2%). Lesions on the middle third, >3 cm in size, flat or depressed, and of undifferentiated histology were significantly more common in the surgery group than in the ESD group. The ESD group showed lower acute complication rates [8.1% (66 of 817) vs. 18.1% (218 of 1206), P ≤ 0.001] and procedure-related mortality [0 vs. 0.3% (4 of 1206), P = 0.153] than the surgical group. The annual incidence of recurrent gastric cancer was 2.18% in the ESD group and 0.19% in the surgery group. The 5-year overall and disease-specific survival rates were not significantly different between the ESD group and the surgery group (overall survival: 96.4 vs. 97.2%, P = 0.423; disease-specific survival: 99.6 vs. 99.2%, P = 0.203). Although EGC lesions had poorer features in the surgery group than in the ESD group, ESD was comparable to surgery for EGCs that fulfilled the expanded indication of ESD, with lower rates of acute complication and comparable overall survival.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 18. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 April 2018.
All research outputs
#1,716,141
of 22,996,001 outputs
Outputs from Surgical Endoscopy
#153
of 6,096 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#36,142
of 316,833 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Surgical Endoscopy
#4
of 132 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,996,001 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 92nd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,096 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 97% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 316,833 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 88% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 132 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its contemporaries.
