Preoperative Tumor Markers Independently Predict Survival in Stage III Gastric Cancer Patients: Should We Include Tumor Markers in AJCC Staging?

abstract：BACKGROUND:The treatment strategy and benefit of extended lymph node dissection among patients with preoperatively diagnosed paraaortic lymph node metastasis (PALNM) in colon cancer remains highly controversial. In the current study, we analyzed the oncologic outcomes of patients who underwent extraregional lymph node ...
