Background and Aims: Although Helicobacter pylori eradication decreases the incidence of metachronous gastric cancer after endoscopic treatment for early gastric cancer (EGC), metachronous cancer still develops after successful eradication, particularly in patients with severe corpus gastritis. We investigated whether the extent of atrophic fundic gastritis diagnosed by autofluorescence imaging (AFI) videoendoscopy is predictive of development of metachronous gastric cancer after H. pylori eradication in patients treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for EGC. Patients and Methods: A total of 82 patients who underwent ESD for EGC from 2003 to 2006, who received eradication therapy participated in this study. The extent of chronic atrophic fundic gastritis was evaluated by AFI and categorized into closed and open type. The main outcome was the incidence of metachronous gastric cancer detected by annual surveillance endoscopy. Results: During a median observation period of 55 months, metachronous gastric cancer developed in 12 of 82 patients (14.6%). Multivariate Cox's proportional hazard analysis revealed that open-type, atrophic fundic gastritis diagnosed by AFI was significantly associated with development of metachronous gastric cancer (hazard ratio: 4.88, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.32-18.2, P = 0.018) after adjustment for age, sex, histological intestinal metaplasia, serum pepsinogen level, and H. pylori status. Conclusions: Metachronous EGC developed after successful H. pylori eradication, and extensive atrophic fundic gastritis diagnosed by AFI was a significant predictor, thus it could identify patients undergoing ESD for EGC who still required intensive surveillance after eradication.
