Description
Background Intramucosal andminute submucosal (M-SM1; \500 lm in depth) differentiated gastric cancers, which have a negligible risk of lymph node metastasis, are the targets for endoscopic resection. However, there have been few reports about the endoscopic distinction between these cancers and cancers with deeper submucosal invasion (SM2; C500 lm in depth). The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze the differences in the endoscopic features between M-SM1 and SM2 cancers, and to develop a simple scoring model to predict the depth of these early gastric cancers. Methods We analyzed 853 differentiated early gastric cancers treated endoscopically or surgically as a derivation group. Endoscopic images were reviewed to determine the relationship between depth of invasion and the following endoscopic features: tumor location, macroscopic type, tumor size, and endoscopic findings (remarkable redness, uneven surface, margin elevation, ulceration, and enlarged folds). Secondly, we created a depth-predicting model based on the obtained data and applied the model to 211 validation samples. Results On logistic regression analysis, tumor size more than 30 mm,remarkable redness, uneven surface, andmargin elevation were significantly associated with deeper submucosal cancers. A depth-predicting score was created by assigning 2 points for margin elevation and tumor size more than 30 mm, and 1 point for each of the other endoscopic features. When validation lesions of 3 points or more were diagnosed as deeper submucosal cancers, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy as evaluated by three endoscopists were 29.7–45.9, 93.1–93.7, and 82.5–84.8%, respectively. Conclusions The depth-predicting score could be useful in the decisions on treatment strategy for differentiated M-SM1 early gastric cancers.
