The study revealed that the presence of poorly differentiated components in mixed type gastric cancer increases the risk of lymph node metastasis, while endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is recommended for lesions consistent with ESD criteria to reduce the risk of LNM.
Objective The purpose of this study was to explore the role of different undifferentiated components in the lymph node metastasis (LNM) of early mixed gastric cancer. Methods A total of 1596 patients with EGC who underwent gastrectomy were divided into four types: pure differentiated (PD), pure poorly differentiated (Poorly D), pure signet ring cell carcinoma (SRC), and mixed. Mixed type was classified into four subtypes: differentiated-predominant type mixed with poorly differentiated component (MD-P), poorly differentiated-predominant type mixed with differentiated component (MP-D), differentiated-predominant type mixed with SRC component (MD-S), and poorly differentiated-predominant type mixed with SRC component (MP-S). We analyzed the clinicopathological differences between all types and the rates of LNM of patients fulfilling endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) criteria. Results LNM was more common in mixed (21.9%) than in PD (7.5%, P < 0.001) or SRC (11.3%, P < 0.001). When analyzed the subgroups of mixed type, LNM was more frequent in MD-P (15.4%) than in PD (7.5%, P = 0.003). LNM in MD-S (7.4%, P = 1.000) was not higher than in PD. MP-S (24.5%) showed a higher rate of LNM than SRC (11.3%, P < 0.001) rather than Poorly-D (22.7%, P = 0.681). For lesions satisfying ESD criteria, MD-S (0%, P = 1.000), and MD-P (5.9%, P = 0.12) did not have higher rates of LNM than PD (1.4%). Conclusion The presence of poorly differentiated component but not SRC increases the LNM rate of mixed type. ESD is recommended for the treatment of MD-S and MD-P consistent with ESD criteria.
