Abstract
INTRODUCTION Favorable long-term outcomes of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early remnant gastric cancer (ERGC) have been reported in single-center studies from advanced institutions. However, no studies have examined the long-term outcomes using a multicenter database. This study aimed to investigate the long-term outcomes of the aforementioned approach using a large multicenter database. METHODS This retrospective multicenter cohort study included 242 cases with 256 lesions that underwent ESD for ERGC between April 2009 and March 2019 across 12 centers. We investigated the long-term outcomes of these patients with the Kaplan-Meier method, and the relationship between curability, additional treatment, or hospital category, and the survival time was evaluated using the log-rank test. RESULTS During the median follow-up period of 48.4 months, the 5-year overall survival rate was 81.3%, and the 5-year gastric cancer-specific survival rate was 98.1%. The survival time of patients of endoscopic curability (eCura) C-2 without additional surgery was significantly shorter than the corresponding of patients of eCura A/B/C-1 and eCura C-2 with additional surgery. There was no significant difference in either overall survival or gastric cancer-specific survival rate between the high-volume and non-high-volume hospitals. CONCLUSION The gastric cancer-specific survival of ESD for ERGC using a multicenter database was favorable. ESD for ERGC is widely applicable regardless of the hospital case volume. Management in accordance with the latest guidelines will lead to long-term survival.

Management of Superficial Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Early Gastric Cancer following Non-Curative Endoscopic Resection. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14153757. [PMID: 35954421 PMCID: PMC9367302 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14153757] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Revised: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 07/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Guidelines recommend additional treatment following non-curative endoscopic resection in cases of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and early gastric cancer because of the potential risk of lymph node metastasis. This review discusses recent advances in this field, including the development of pathological risk stratification for metastatic recurrence and identification of different recurrence patterns after non-curative endoscopic resection for superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or early gastric cancer, and the establishment of a novel treatment strategy for clinical T1b-SM esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. For optimal therapeutic decision-making in such patients, it is also important to predict prognoses other than superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or early gastric cancer and impaired quality of life. Thus, a novel algorithm that considers these factors and metastatic recurrence is required. Abstract According to the European and Japanese guidelines, additional treatment is recommended for cases of superficial esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and early gastric cancer (EGC) that do not meet the curability criteria for endoscopic resection (ER), i.e., non-curative ER, owing to the risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). However, the rates of LNM in such cases were relatively low (e.g., 8% for EGC). Several recent advances have been made in this field. First, pathological risk stratification for metastatic recurrence following non-curative ER without additional treatment was developed for both superficial ESCC and EGC. Second, the pattern of metastatic recurrence and prognosis after recurrence following non-curative ER without additional treatment was found to be considerably different between superficial ESCC and EGC. Third, a combination of ER and selective chemoradiotherapy was developed as a minimally invasive treatment method for clinical T1b-SM ESCC. These findings may help clinicians decide the treatment strategy for patients following non-curative ER; however, for optimal therapeutic decision-making in such patients, it is also important to predict the prognosis other than SESCC or EGC and impaired quality of life. Thus, a novel algorithm that considers these factors, as well as metastatic recurrence, should be developed.

Influence of hospital volume on bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection for early gastric cancer in Japan: a multicenter propensity score-matched analysis. Surg Endosc 2022; 36:4004-4013. [PMID: 34494147 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-021-08721-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2021] [Accepted: 08/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Information on whether there is a relationship between hospital volume and bleeding after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) is limited. This study aimed to compare the bleeding rates after ESD for EGC according to the hospital volume. METHODS Patients who underwent ESD for EGC at 33 institutions in Japan between November 2013 and October 2016 were included in this multicenter retrospective study. Hospital volume was categorized into three groups, based on the average annual number of ESD procedures: low- and medium-volume group (LMVG), high-volume group (HVG), and very high-volume group (VHVG). The bleeding rate after ESD for EGC was compared between the three hospital volume groups after propensity score matching. RESULTS A total of 10,320 patients, including 2797 patients in the LMVG, 4646 patients in the HVG, and 2877 patients in the VHVG, were identified. Propensity score matching yielded 2002 patients in each hospital volume group, with an improved balance of confounding variables between the three groups. The bleeding rates in the LMVG, HVG, and VHVG were 4.3%, 3.7%, and 4.9%, respectively, and no significant difference was noted between the three groups. CONCLUSIONS The bleeding rate after ESD for EGC did not differ between hospitals in Japan. The finding indicated that ESD for EGC is equally feasible across Japanese hospitals of different volumes regarding bleeding after ESD.

Recent approach for preventing complications in upper gastrointestinal endoscopic submucosal dissection. DEN OPEN 2022; 2:e60. [PMID: 35310735 PMCID: PMC8828199 DOI: 10.1002/deo2.60] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 09/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Although endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a minimally invasive treatment method for upper gastrointestinal (GI) tumors, patients undergoing upper GI ESD sometimes fall into a serious condition from complications. Thus, it is important to fully understand how to prevent complications when performing upper GI ESD. One of the major complications in esophageal and gastric ESD is intraoperative perforation. To prevent this complication, blind dissection should be avoided. Traction-assisted ESD is a useful technique for maintaining good endoscopic view. This method was proven to reduce the incidence of intraoperative perforation, which would become a standard technique in esophageal and gastric ESD. In gastric ESD, delayed bleeding is the most common complication. Recently, a novel prediction model (BEST-J score) consisting of 10 factors with four risk categories for delayed bleeding in gastric ESD was established, and a free mobile application is now available. For reducing delayed bleeding in gastric ESD, vonoprazan ≥20 mg/day is the sole reliable method in the current status. Duodenal ESD is still challenging with a much higher frequency of complications, such as perforation and delayed bleeding, than ESD in other organs. However, with the development of improved devices and techniques, the frequency of complications in duodenal ESD has been decreasing. To prevent intraoperative perforation, some ESD techniques, such as using the distal tips of the Clutch Cutter, were developed. An endoscopic mucosal defect closure technique would be mandatory for preventing delayed complications. However, several unresolved issues, including standardization of duodenal ESD, remain and further studies are demanded.

Is Additional Gastrectomy Required for Elderly Patients after Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection with Endoscopic Curability C-2 for Early Gastric Cancer? Digestion 2022; 103:83-91. [PMID: 34638125 DOI: 10.1159/000519514] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2021] [Accepted: 09/07/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND With the ongoing growth of the aged population, the number of elderly patients suffering from gastric cancer has increased in Japan. Since the frequency of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) with endoscopic curability (eCura) C-2 for early gastric cancer (EGC) is relative low, the following question can be raised: "Is additional gastrectomy required for elderly patients with such criteria for ESD?" SUMMARY For therapeutic decision-making after ESD with eCura C-2, the risk of all-cause mortality and impaired quality of life (QoL) should thus be evaluated. Risk stratification of LNM and gastric cancer-specific mortality was established by the eCura system; however, it remains unclear how much these categories and treatment selection affect all-cause mortality. The contribution of prognostic tools for predicting all-cause mortality was noted to vary across the studies of patients with EGC; thus, further studies that investigate comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) may be required. Regarding the QoL, studies on elderly patients remain to be lacking. Furthermore, one of the issues with CGA and QoL tools is that they are time consuming. Key Messages: Combined evaluation of risk stratification of gastric cancer-specific mortality by the eCura system and risk of nongastric cancer-related mortality and impaired QoL may be the current optimal method to decide treatment strategy after ESD with eCura C-2 for EGC among elderly patients. A large-scale prospective study that investigates CGA domains is required to identify predictors of all-cause mortality and impaired QoL, and a more easily usable tool should be developed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND AIMS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in the treatment of superficial neoplasias of the gastrointestinal tract is currently one of the greatest advances in therapeutic endoscopy. Due to its high technical complexity, it is not yet a routine procedure in Latin America. The aim of the present study was to present the experience in Brazil with ESD in superficial gastric neoplasias, based on training received from Japanese experts. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study was conducted, in which information was prospectively collected from a database that included all patients that underwent ESD due to superficial gastric neoplasias at two endoscopy referral centers in Brazil, within the time frame of June 2008 to June 2019. En bloc, complete, and curative resection rates were calculated, along with the local recurrence rate and adverse events. RESULTS A total of 103 ESDs for superficial gastric neoplasias were performed during the study period. Eighty of those patients (77.6%) presented with early malignant gastric neoplasias or premalignant lesions (adenocarcinoma: 52.5%, high-grade dysplasia: 27.5%, low-grade dysplasia: 16.3%, and neuroendocrine tumors: 3.8%). Overall en bloc and complete resection rates for the superficial gastric neoplasias were 96.3% and 92.5%, respectively, whereas the curative resection rate based on expanded criteria was 76%. CONCLUSIONS ESD for the treatment of superficial gastric neoplasias is a safe and effective therapeutic modality in Latin America, with results similar to those shown in the most representative Japanese studies.

Prevalence and risk factors for lymph node metastasis after noncurative endoscopic resection for early gastric cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis. J Gastroenterol 2020; 55:742-753.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Additional surgery for all patients with noncurative resection after endoscopic resection (ER) for early gastric cancer (EGC) may be excessive due to the relatively low rate of lymph node metastasis (LNM) in such patients. However, the prevalence and risk factors for LNM after noncurative ER have not been consistent across studies. METHODS We performed a systematic review of electronic databases through August 10, 2018 to identify cohort studies with patients who underwent additional surgery after noncurative ER for EGC. The prevalence of LNM in such patients was extracted for all studies. Odds ratios (ORs) were combined using random-effects meta-analyses to assess the risk of LNM, when possible. RESULTS We identified 24 studies comprising 3877 patients with 311 having LNM (pooled prevalence, 8.1%). The risk of LNM was significantly increased in lymphatic invasion (OR [95% confidence interval] = 4.22 [2.88-6.19]), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (4.17 [2.90-5.99]), vascular invasion (2.38 [1.65-3.44]), positive vertical margin (2.16 [1.59-2.93]), submucosal invasion depth of ≥ 500 μm (2.14 [1.48-3.09]), and tumor size > 30 mm (1.77 [1.31-2.40]). In contrast, there was no significant association between undifferentiated-type or ulceration (scar) and LNM. When studies were restricted to those that evaluated the adjusted OR, the risk of vascular invasion for LNM did not reach statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS Several pathological factors, most notably lymphatic invasion and LVI, were associated with LNM in patients with noncurative resection after ER for EGC. Lymphatic and vascular invasion should be assessed separately instead of LVI (PROSPERO CRD42018109996).

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are few studies reporting the clinical outcomes of noncurative endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) from the perspective of patient health condition/status. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes of noncurative ESD considering not only curability but also patient factors such as advanced age, comorbidities, and nutritional status. METHODS Between April 2007 and March 2012, 95 patients who underwent noncurative ESD for EGC were enrolled in the study. Patients were categorized by treatment after ESD: additional gastrectomy (49 patients) and follow-up (46 patients). Clinical outcomes were evaluated between the 2 groups for overall survival (OS). RESULTS The absence of lymphovascular involvement and age ≥80 years were significantly associated with decision-making for observation after noncurative ESD. The OS rates were higher in female patients, patients with better Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (≤1) or low-risk comorbidity (Charlson Comorbidity Index [CCI ≤ 2]), patients with ulcerative findings, and those who underwent radical gastrectomy. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis indicated that presence of a high-risk comorbidity (CCI ≥ 3) was a significant prognostic factor (hazard ratio: 16.43, p = 0.024) in patients who underwent noncurative ESD for EGC. CONCLUSION High-risk comorbidity is the primary prognostic parameter in terms of patient factors after noncurative ESD for EGC. The CCI should be considered as a prognostic factor in patients who underwent noncurative ESD for EGC.

Abstract
RASSF2 is a tumor suppressor gene closely related to gastric cancer. This meta-analysis was designed to assess the quality in the previous studies and establish the value of RASSF2 methylation in the prediction and prognosis of gastric cancer. The eligible literatures with publication deadline of May 3, 2019 were collected from PubMed, EMBASE, CNKI, Wanfang, and CNVIP databases. The correlation between RASSF2 methylation level and gastric cancer was estimated by odds ratio and 95% confidence interval (OR and 95% CI) values. A total of eight articles were included in the study. A total of 517 gastric cancer tissue samples and 517 adjacent nontumor tissue samples were included. The results of the analysis showed that RASSF2 had a significantly higher level of methylation in gastric cancer (OR = 17.56, 95% CI = 7.11-43.35, p-value = 0.009). Meanwhile, we tested whether there was association of RASSF2 methylation with tumor metastasis, and we also analyzed whether there was a gender difference in RASSF2 methylation. However, our results showed no statistical significance of the two aforementioned tests (p > 0.1). Our study suggested that RASSF2 methylation could predict the risk of gastric cancer. However, it might not be feasible for the prediction of tumor metastasis.
