Distinct clinicopathologic characteristics of diffuse- and intestinal-type gastric cancer in Taiwan.

Abstract:

:The clinicopathologic features of 221 patients with intestinal-type (IT) gastric cancer were compared retrospectively with those of 290 diffuse type (DT). Intestinal type was characterized by an older mean age (65.0 +/- 10.8 years vs. 56.2 +/- 13 years), a higher male-female ratio (2.56 vs. 1.06), predominance of blood group O (46.2% vs. 31.1%), and frequent habitual smoking (50.7% vs. 31.4%) and drinking (28.5% vs. 17.6%) than did DT. In contrast, DT had a higher frequency of positive history of parent or sibling with gastric cancer (9.3% vs. 4.1%) and blood group A (40.3% vs. 27.6%) than did IT. The distinguishing histologic features of DT included more Borrmann type IV (13.1% vs. 1.3%) but less Borrmann type I (1% vs. 7.2%), more frequent involvement of middle third (26.9% vs. 15.9%) and whole stomach (4.1% vs. 0%), and more peritoneal seeding (15.5% vs. 9%), lymph node metastasis (67.2% vs. 51%), and nerve permeation (34.1% vs. 24.4%), but less Helicobacter pylori infection (55.9% vs. 69.2%) when compared with those of IT. There was no difference in depth of tumor invasion, venous permeation, duodenal involvement, and postoperative survival between IT and DT. These distinct clinicopathologic features between IT and DT in Taiwan suggest the presence of a different pathogenic process for these two histologic subtypes of gastric cancer.
