Positive lymph node ratio as a nodal staging system to avoid stage migration between remnant and primary proximal gastric cancers

Abstract Nodal staging of gastric cancer (GC) based on the number of positive lymph nodes (PLNs) is a robust prognostic factor. However, the number of retrieved lymph nodes in remnant GC (RGC) may be lower than in primary GC owing to variations in the extents of initial gastrectomy and lymphadenecto...
