Risk factors for recurrence in T1‐2N0 gastric cancer in the United States and China

Abstract

Patients infrequently recur following curative intent gastrectomy for T1-2N0 gastric adenocarcinoma. Almost all recurrences occur between six months and 3 years post-operatively, most frequently in distant anatomic locations; selective followup during this time period is recommended. J. Surg.
