Risk of peritoneal metastases in patients who had negative peritoneal staging and received therapy for localized gastric adenocarcinoma

Abstract

Positive peritoneal cytology (+PCyt) or gross carcinomatosis (GPC) carries a poor prognosis. Laparoscopic staging to detect +PCyt/GPC is recommended for all ≥T1b gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC). The natural history of patients with GAC who have baseline −PCyt and then undergo multimodality therapy is not well documented, particularly for the risk of subsequent GPC.
