 The treatment strategy for gastric cancer is based on the clinical TNM classification(clinical stage), which is primarily derived from the endoscopy-centered imaging diagnosis. The T classification represents the staging based on the depth of invasion, which is closely related to the treatment strategy. Endoscopic treatment is considered for early gastric cancer(T1)without clinical lymph node or distant organ metastasis whereas advanced gastric cancer(T2-T4)is treated surgically. Although endoscopy is the primary method used for assessing the invasion depth, its diagnostic accuracy has some limitations, and therefore, endoscopy is sometimes used in conjunction with endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS). A review of treatment outcomes for cases in which depth diagnosis was performed at our institution revealed a high rate of misdiagnosis in undifferentiated carcinoma cases. Additionally, the indication for endoscopic treatment in elderly patients remains debatable, requiring consideration of the overall health status and prognostic factors. Future studies are warranted for further clarification of the eligibility criteria for elderly patients.
