Background and Aims: The number of elderly patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) who meet the indications for endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is increasing. We aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors of overall survival (OS) in elderly patients undergoing ESD for EGC. Methods: Between January 2006 and December 2018, 439 patients aged ≥75 years who underwent ESD for EGC were analyzed. The clinical outcomes and prognosis were evaluated, and independent risk factors for OS were identified. Results: The mean patient (302 men, 137 women) age was 78.3 (range 75–92) years. En bloc, R0, and curative resections were achieved in 96.8%, 90.7%, and 75.6%, respectively, without severe adverse events. During the follow-up (median 54.2 (range 4.0–159.6) months), 86 patients died (three of gastric cancer). The 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS was 91.2%, 83.5%, and 54.5%, respectively, and the 3-, 5-, and 10-year cancer related survival rate were 99.7%, 99.1% and 97.5%, respectively. In multivariate analysis, smoking, history of cancer of other organs, NLR > 1.6, Charlson comorbidity index ≥ 3, and presence of lymphovascular invasion (hazard ratio = 3.96, 1.78, 1.83, 1.83, and 2.63, respectively, all p < 0.05) were independent five risk factors for poor OS. The high-risk group (≥3 risk factors) showed a significantly lower OS than the low-risk group (<2 risk factors) (p < 0.001). Conclusions: The five factors could be useful in predicting the long-term prognosis of elderly ESD patients or deciding the therapeutic approaches in case of non-curative resection.

Background/Aim: We investigated the oncologic outcomes in elderly patients who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastric cancer (EGC) by focusing on the impact of comorbidities, sarcopenia, and nutritional status. Methods: Between 2005 and 2016, 280 patients aged ≥ 80 years with 289 EGCs underwent ESD at a tertiary care center. The short- and long-term survival outcomes were assessed. Cox regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with survival, including clinicopathologic factors and abdominal muscle area measured by computed tomography. Results: The rates of en bloc, R0, and, curative resection were 99.3%, 90.0%, and 69.2%, respectively. The rates of post-ESD bleeding and perforation rates were 2.1% and 3.1%, respectively, and no cases showed significant life-threatening adverse events. Over a median follow-up period of 70.5 months, the 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 89.5% and 77.1%, respectively; of the114 patients who died, only four (3.5%) were due to gastric cancer. A total of 173 (61.8%) had sarcopenia, and they had lower rates of 3-year (88.4% vs. 91.4%) and 5-year (73.1% vs. 84.0%; p = 0.046) OS than did those without sarcopenia. In multivariable analyses, prognostic nutritional index (hazard ratio [HR], 0.93; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.90–0.98; p = 0.002) and Charlson comorbidity index (HR 1.19; 95% CI: 1.03–1.37; p = 0.018) were significant factors associated with overall survival. Conclusions: ESD was a feasible and safe therapeutic method to use in elderly patients, whose long-term survival was significantly associated with nutritional status and comorbidities. These results suggest the need for a possible extension of the curative criteria for ESD in elderly patients with EGC.
