435 prediction of lymph node metastasis in t2 colorectal cancer based on artificial intelligence –proposal of an indication for future full-thickness endoscopic resection-
Although surgical colectomy with lymph node dissection is a standard strategy for T2 colorectal cancer (CRC), they actually present approximately 25% of lymph node metastasis (LNM)-positivity. Thus, the remaining 75% of LNM-negativity patients can have an option of receiving full-thickness endoscopic resection without lymph node dissection. The aim of this study is to investigate whether artificial intelligence (AI) can predict LNM-positivity of T2 CRCs.
