【 摘 要 】

AimThis study aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection/endoscopic mucosal resection (ESD/EMR), laparoscopic-assisted radical gastrectomy (LARG), and open radical gastrectomy (ORG) in early-stage gastric cancer.MethodsA total of 417 patients with early-stage gastric cancer who were admitted in two hospitals from January 1, 2014 to July 31, 2017 were selected; the patients were divided into the ESD/EMR group (139 cases), LARG group (108 cases), and ORG group (170 cases) according to the operation methods used. The baseline data, economic cost of health, oncologic characteristics, postoperative complications, 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival, and risk factors of death were compared and analyzed.ResultsNo significant difference was observed in the baseline data among the three patient groups (P > 0.05). The total hospitalization days, operation time, postoperative fluid intake time, hospitalization expenses, and proportion of antibiotic use rate in the ESD/EMR group were lesser than those in other groups (P < 0.05). The LARG group has a longer operation time and higher hospitalization expenses compared with the ORG group (P < 0.05), but the total hospitalization days, postoperative fluid intake time, proportion of antibiotic use, and lung infection status were consistent. The ESD/EMR group had a lower incidence of incision site infection and postoperative abdominal distension compared with that of the surgery groups (P < 0.05). Five patients required radical surgery after undergoing ESD/EMR (The patients had residual tissue margin cancer), while none of the patients had switched to ORG during LARG. Surgery had advantages over ESD/EMR in terms of lymph node dissection (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in the postoperative complications such as upper gastrointestinal bleeding, perforation, incision hernia, reoperation and recurrence (P > 0.05). The 5-year postoperative survival rates of patients in the three groups were 94.2% (ESD/EMR), 93.5% (LARG), and 94.7% (ORG), respectively, with no significant differences (P > 0.05). The binary logistics multivariate analysis showed that the tumor size, invasion depth, vascular invasion, and differentiated degree were risk factors for death in patients with gastric cancer.ConclusionsNo significant difference was observed between ESD/EMR and radical surgery. However, standardized criteria for excluding metastatic lymph nodes should be established to promote ESD/EMR.
