A greater lymph node yield is required during pathological examination in microsatellite instability-high gastric cancer

Abstract Background The impact of microsatellite status on lymph node (LN) yield during lymphadenectomy and pathological examination has never been assessed in gastric cancer (GC). In this study, we aimed to appraise the association between microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) and LN yield after...
