The longest diameter of tumor as a parameter of endoscopic resection in early gastric cancer: In comparison with tumor area.
Tumor burden is important to predict clinical behaviors of cancer such as lymph node metastasis (LNM). Tumor size has been used as a parameter of tumor burden such as indication of endoscopic resection in early gastric cancer (EGC) to predict LNM. Thus, we aimed to investigate whether tumor area can...
