ObjectiveTo explore the value of multi-slice spiral CT (MSCT) in ycT stage and ycN stage evaluation of patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (cT4bN0-3M0) who underwent surgery after transformation therapy.MethodsClinical data of 32 patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (cT4bN0-3M0) in Affiliated Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital of Qingdao University form January 2017 to April 2019 were retrospective analyzed. All the patients underwent surgery after SOX regimen transformation therapy. Preoperative MSCT plain and enhanced scan were used to evaluate clinical T stage (ycT) and clinical N stage (ycN). The accuracy of MSCT scanning was evaluated by comparing with the gold standard for postoperative pathological ypT stage and ypN stage.ResultsThe accuracy of preoperative MSCT examination on ycT stage after transformation therapy was 78.1% (25/32), and that of ycN was 56.3% (18/32).ConclusionThe accuracy of MSCT in preoperative ycT stage and ycN stage after successful transformation therapy for locally advanced gastric cancer (cT4bN0-3M0) is relatively high.
