Long-term Survival Following Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection Versus Gastrectomy in Early Gastric Cancer Patients Aged 75 Years and Above: A National Retrospective Cohort Study in Korea
ESD may offer better outcomes than gastrectomy among older patients with stage IA gastric cancer, particularly those aged ≥80 or with mucosa-confined lesions. ESD and gastrectomy may provide similar survival outcomes among patients aged 75-79 years and those with submucosa-confined lesions. These findings support the use of adaptive treatment strategies in older patients with EGC.
