Modified Tumor Budding as a Better Predictor of Lymph Node Metastasis in Early Gastric Cancer: Possible Real-World Applications

Modified Tumor Budding as a Better Predictor of Lymph Node Metastasis in Early Gastric Cancer: Possible Real-World Applications

Endoscopic resection (ER) is a minimally invasive treatment for early gastric cancer (EGC) with a low risk of lymph node metastasis (LNM). Recently, tumor budding (TB) has emerged as a potential predictor of LNM in EGC. We assessed the clinical significance of modified TB (mTB) that excludes the sig...
