Usefulness of Magnifying Endoscopy with Narrow-Band Imaging for Diagnosing Mixed Poorly Differentiated Gastric Cancers

Curative rates of endoscopic treatment for undifferentiated-type early gastric cancer (EGC), particularly mixed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma (MIXED-POR), are lower than those of endoscopic treatment for the differentiated type. Magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (ME-NBI) is useful for diagnoses of the histological type. This study aimed to investigate the detection rates of MIXED-POR among undifferentiated-type EGCs using...
