This report is a clinical review of 50 cases of early gastric cancer that were treated and followed during 6 years from June. 1985 to June 1990.
1. The peak incidence age was 50 decade(38%), the mean age was 50 years, the ratio of male to female was 3:2.
2. The preoperative diagnostic rate was 52% by double conrast and 60% by endoscopy and biopsy.
3. The most common size of lesions was 1.1-2cm(32%) the smaller of lesion, the greater incidence of invasion rate to submucosa but no relation to lymph node matastasis rate.
4. The most common type of lesion was IIc(28%), the depressed type(III, IIb+c, IIc) was lymph node metastasis, but the elevated type and flat type was not lymph node matastasis.
5. The most common histological type was moderate differentiated and signet-ring cell types(32.5%) the most common type of metastatic rate was moderate differentiated type (30.7%), the badder of differentiated type, the greater incidence of metastatic rate to lymph node.
6. The common sites were lower third and lesser curvature(50%).
The greater incidence of metastatic rate and invasion rate to submucosa the site of posterior wall was.
7. The rate of lymph node matastasis was 6.3% in mucosa, 26.4% in submucosa and 20% in total.
8. Follow up studies were possible in 45 cases, in these 1 case was died, 1 case was recurred but alive.
