Abstract
We examined the relationship between clinieopathologic findings and lymph nodemetastasis on 118 cases with u.ndifferentiated type early gastric cancer (m : 70lesions, sm :481esions) resected surgically. Six lesions (5%) had lymph node metastasis. The depth ofinvasion in these six mucosal lesions were one mucosal cancer and five submucosalinvasive cancers. only ane aut of 7a lesians (1.4%) had lymph node metastasis. Themucosal lesion with lymph node metastasis was 35mm in diameter with ulceration.Su.bmucosal invasive lesions with lymph node metastasis were one sm21esion and four sm31esions. All lesions with lymph node metastasis were accompanied by ulceration. This datasuggest that if the legion can be resected in ane try, undifferentiated type mucosal cancerwithout ulceration may be treated curatively by EMR.
