Endoscopic resection for esophageal gastrointestinal stromal tumors: Balancing R0 resection and long-term outcomes. [PDF]
Xu et al retrospectively assessed endoscopic resection (ER) for esophageal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (E-GISTs) and reported excellent 5-year survival rates. Although ER shows promise as a minimally invasive procedure, the 75% R0 resection rate with recurrence observed even after R0 resection warrants further discussion. We highlight the need for

Definition of Microscopic Tumor Clearance (R0) in Pancreatic Cancer Resections [PDF]
To date, curative resection is the only chance for cure for patients suffering from pancreatic ductal adenoacarcinoma (PDAC). Despite low reported rates of microscopic tumor infiltration (R1) in most studies, tumor recurrence is a common finding in patients with PDAC and contributes to extremely low long-term survival rates.

R0 resection in the treatment of gastric cancer: Room for improvement
Gastric carcinoma is one of the most frequent malignancies in the world and its clinical behavior especially depends on the metastatic potential of the tumor. In particular, lymphatic metastasis is one of the main predictors of tumor recurrence and survival, and current pathological staging systems reflect the concept that lymphatic spread is the most ...
