Core Tip Lymph node retrieval in the operating theater after surgical resection is a common practice in Eastern Asia. When applied in the west, the procedure permits a higher number of lymph nodes to be detected, thus improving tumor staging. In the present multicenter study in which the participating centers used different surgical procedures, patients who were submitted to accurate lymph node pick up showed better survival than those were not. Although we are aware that this procedure cannot improve survival, we believe that it can identify patients submitted to a more accurate treatment.
