Defining a Subgroup Treatable for Laparoscopic Surgery in Poorly Differentiated Early Gastric Cancer: the Role of Lymph Node Metastasis

Objective: The present study aims to identify the clinicopathologic factors predictive of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in poorly differentiated early gastric cancer (EGC) and to expand the possibility of using laparoscopic surgery for the treatment of poorly differentiated EGC. Methods: Data from 70...
