deep mucosa plus the submucosal,

propria
• T3 expansion beyond the muscularis propria resulting in an irregular outer border that
correlates with invasion of the subserosa
• T4A Loss of the bright line recognized as the serosa is now staged as
• T4B extension of the mass into surrounding organs such as the liver, pancreas, and

• NODES Perigastric lymph nodes are readily seen by EUS, and the identification of
enlarged, hypoechoic (dark), homogeneous, well-circumscribed, rounded structures around
the stomach correlates with the presence of malignant or inflammatory lymph nodes.

cardiac, lesser and greater curvature, suprapyloric along the right
gastric artery, and infrapyloric area
◊ D2 ---- D1 plus all the nodes along the left gastric
artery, common hepatic artery, celiac artery, and splenic artery
•Total >= 16 nodes should be dissected (perez)

escalated to 50.4 to 54 Gy.
• Based on the trails, post operatively RT is given along with
chemotherapy gives survival benefits

44. PRE OP CHEMORADIOTHERAPY
• Along with chemo CAT 2B
• In CT2 or higher , any N , medically fit, tumor potentially unresectable
• RATIONALE
• improved tolerance relative to adjuvant treatments,
• potential downstaging with associated improvement in R0 resection
rates,
• better target definition,
• better vascularization for optimal chemotherapy and radiosensitizing
oxygen delivery, and
• allowing biologic stratification of patients for surgery, notably given that
the presence of micrometastases is at initial diagnosis.

45. DOSE – 45 GY IN 25#
• The RTOG reported the results of a phase II study
• induction 5-FU, leucovorin, and cisplatin followed by
• concurrent radiation therapy and
• infusional 5-FU and paclitaxel.
138 Resection was attempted 5 to 6 weeks after
radiation therapy and chemotherapy.
The pathologic complete response and R0 resection
rates were 26% and 77%, respectively.
At 1 year, more patients with tumors exhibiting a
pathologic complete response (89%) were living than
patients with tumors exhibiting a less favorable
response (66%).
