Pre- and post-ESD discrepancies in clinicopathologic criteria in early gastric cancer: the NECA –Korea ESD for Early Gastric Cancer Prospective Study (N-Keep)
ConclusionsThe overall discrepancy rate was 20.1 %. To reduce this rate, it is necessary to evaluate the DOI very cautiously, because it is correlated with other parameters. In particular, careful checking for SM-invasive cancer is required due to the high incidence of LVI irrespective of the depth of submucosal invasion.
