Histological response of gastric adenocarcinomas after chemotherapy in the Tunisian population
This study confirms that the tumor regression classification is an independent prognostic factor in gastric cancer, particularly when combined with ypTNM staging. While Mandard shows slightly better performance, both Mandard and Becker scores demonstrate moderate and comparable predictive value, with no clear superiority. These findings highlight the need for a standardized system integrating nodal response and other key histological features to improve prognostic accuracy.
