Predictive factors of histological upstaging and downstaging in gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection specimens
The diagnostic discrepancy rate between the initial forceps biopsy and the ESD specimen was 34.9%. Patients with larger or ulcerated lesions were more likely to have an upstaging pathological result. Therefore, it is essential to perform a thorough evaluation of the lesions, including chromoendoscopy and magnification.
