Histopathology-based prognostic score is independent prognostic factor of gastric carcinoma

Abstract: BackgroundThe aim of our study was to evaluate the histological characteristics and prognosis of gastric cancer.MethodsClinicopathlogical variables of 932 patients with gastric carcinoma admitted to the Department of Surgical Oncology at the First Hospital of China Medical University were analyzed retrospectively. Different histological characteristics of gastric cancer were summarized and assigned score according to the malignancy defined by WHO classification, the scores were stratified into 4 stage, the pro… Show more

“…Therefore, it is crucial to identify poor prognostic indicators for GC and guide treatment for patients with dismal outcome. Many studies have displayed that some clinical parameters, such as TNM staging, histological grade, serum tumor markers and therapeutic modalities, are prognostic factors for GC 4 5 6 7 . However, biological behavior of tumor cannot be sufficiently reflected by the above clinical parameters.…”

“…Prognostic association of histopathologic status of GCs with overall survival (OS) was demonstrated in previous studies (7,9,12,13,15). Thus, in the current study, the histopathological status was scaled by: (i) pT1-2 stage (0 score) vs pT3-4 stage (1 score); (ii) pN0 stage (0 score) vs pN+ stage (1 score); (iii) low-L&B stage (0 score, intestinal types and Borrmann types I–III) vs high-L&B stage (diffuse type or Borrmann type IV) grade; (iv) low-WHO grade (0 score, papillary carcinoma or high differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma) vs high-WHO grade (1 score, medium differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma or poorly differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma or mucinous adenocarcinoma or signet ring cell carcinoma); and (v) LVI− (0 score) vs LVI+ (1 score).…”

“…The alternatives of treatment necessitate accurate prediction of tumor-related risks. The TNM-stage-based classification proposed by the AJCC was the most adopted evaluation for GC 24 ; meanwhile, histopathologic grading has been reported to be an independent prognostic factor, with several related grading system under construction 25 . Clinicopathologic characteristics such as cellular dysmorphism, tumor location, comorbidity, and complications are also involved in some monograms 26 .…”
