The optimal extent of lymphadenectomy for adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) has been continuously debatable. The study aimed to determine the incidence of lymph node metastasis at each station in Siewert types Ⅱ/Ⅲ AEG. PubMed was searched and publications reporting metastasis at each nodal station were eligible. Meta-analysis was...

BACKGROUND: Lymph node metastasis is a principal prognostic factor for the treatment of endometrial cancer. Added value of para-aortic lymphadenectomy to only pelvic lymphadenectomy for intermediate/high-risk endometrial cancer patients remains controversial. OBJECTIVE: A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to assess the impact of com...

BackgroundThe results of D1-plus lymphadenectomy following gastric resection are seldom investigated. The aim of this study was to compare results of D1-plus vs D2 resections and to provide a literature review.MethodsPatients who underwent upfront R0 gastrectomy for adenocarcinoma from 2000 to 2016 in three Institutions were selected using propensi...

Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) are increasingly recognized entities, whose incidence has dramatically grown during the last two decades. Surgery plays a pivotal role in their management as it represents the only chance of cure. Since PanNENs display a wide range of aggressiveness, their surgical management needs to be tailored on tum...

• A study to assess the prognostic value of lymph node ratio (LNR) for gastric cancer patients after curative gastrectomy. • LNR and number of metastatic LNs were independent prognostic factors of gastric cancer and other malignant neoplasm. • In the present study, LNR was a strong predictor for the local recurrence while the number of metastatic L...

Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) represents an organ-preserving alternative to surgical resection of early gastric cancer. However, even with ESD yielding en-bloc resection specimens, there are concerns regarding tumor spread such as with larger lesions, ulcerated lesions, undifferentiated pathology and submucosal invasion. Sentinel node navi...

BACKGROUND In esophageal squamous carcinoma, lymphadenectomy along the left recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) is recommended owing to its highly metastatic potential. However, this procedure is difficult due to limited working space in the left upper mediastinum, and increases postoperative complications. AIM To present a novel method for lymphadenec...

PurposeIdentification of suspicious PSMA-PET/CT-positive lymph node (LN) metastases (LNM) from prostate cancer (PCa) during lymphadenectomy (LA) is challenging. We evaluated an 111In-labelled PSMA ligand (DKFZ-617, referred to as [111In]PSMA-617) as a γ-emitting tracer for intraoperative γ-probe application for resected tissue samples in PCa patien...
