| Core Tip |
There is no robust evidence to define a safe proximal margin by distance for early gastric cancer (EGC). The distance 1-10 mm is only acceptable for those endoscopic treatment fit EGC patients. For endoscopic unfit EGC cases, if the borderline of tumor is able to be clearly determined intraoperatively, the distance 1-3 cm is recommended. If there is any uncertainty on the tumor borderline, the distance 3-5 cm should be considered. |
