Gastric cancer nodal tumour–stroma ratios influence prognosis
Menée en Chine à partir de données portant sur 708 patients atteints d'un adénocarcinome gastrique avec métastases ganglionnaires, cette étude met en évidence une association entre le rapport tumeur-stroma dans les ganglions atteints et le pronostic
This study showed that nodal tumour-stroma ratio (NTSR) is an independent prognostic factor for overall and disease-free survival of patients with gastric cancer. Both relative stroma-rich primary tumour-stroma ratio (PTSR) and NTSR were independent negative prognostic factors for overall survival in gastric cancer. This study supports assessment of tumour-stroma ratio in the routine pathological diagnosis of gastric cancer. validated in node-positive disease
