The New American Joint Committee on Cancer T staging system for stomach: increased complexity without clear improvement in predictive accuracy for endoscopic ultrasound

Abstract: Background The efficacy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) for determining the T category of gastric cancer is variable. The aim of this study was to evaluate the superiority of EUS by using the 6th edition American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system for stomach cancer compared to the new 7th/8th edition. Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical and EUS imaging features of 348 gastric carcinoma patients who underwent radical resection … Show more

“…Lastly, the role of EUS staging in the decision‐making for ER was not explored as it was only performed in 17% (15/86, 95% CI 11%–27%) of patients. Recent literature has quoted 72% accuracy 44 and 82% sensitivity 45 in EUS T and N staging, respectively; therefore, more frequent use of EUS as a guide for ER decision‐making is likely valuable.…”

“…The formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) human gastric cancer tissues for routine pathological diagnosis and immunohistochemical analysis were collected from the Department of Pathology, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC) from January 2014 to December 2016. The disease stage of all patients was classified according to the 8th edition of AJCC staging system [ 14 ]. The clinicopathological characteristics of 234 patients with gastric cancer are listed in Table 1 .…”
