 Changes in the diagnostic levels of FGS endoscopy for early gastric cancer have been investigated on the results obtained in our Hospital during the period June 1962 to December 1970. Of 109 cases (111 lesions) of early cancer studied by FGS prior to surgical operation, the diagnosis was correct in 87 lesions (78.4%). Of 11 cases (9.9%) interpreted at first as advanced cancer, 10 proved to be either Ⅱc or Ⅱc+Ⅲ depressed type with sm degree of depth invasion. Endoscopy revealed in all of them thick white coat and marginal protrusions. In addition, the deformation was so apparent that we diagnosed them all as advanced cancer, but histologically only marked fibrosis was seen in the submucosa and the muscularis propriae. Of 4 cases interpreted as early cancer suspect, 3 were type Ⅱa, difficult to distinguish from Ⅱa subtype. The remaining one was Ⅱa+Ⅱc, a well differentiated adenocarcinoma. This was likewise hard to tell from chronic erosions. In one lesion early cancer could not be ruled out, and 8 cases (7.2%) were interpreted as benign. In fact, of those initially regarded as benign, 1 case of type Ⅰ, 3 of type Ⅲ, 1 of Ⅱb+Ⅲ and 1 of Ⅲ+Ⅱc, where a narrow strip of Ⅱc on one side of the ulcer margin has later been confirmed, were all hard to confirm as malignancy. However, in the remaining 2, Ⅱc and Ⅱc+Ⅲ, Ⅱc findings were overlooked. This could have been avoided.

 Chronologically considered, early gastric cancer cases have been more accurately diagnosed since the introduction of biopsy, and cases endoscopically uncertain are now definitely confirmed. Surgical correction is only exceptionally performed on cancer-suspect patients unless more exact diagnosis is arrived at. Since 1966 erroneous diagnosis of benign lesions for early gastric cancer has greatly diminuished. Establishment of biopsy in the routine examination of the stomach accounts for this good result.

 When shown in figures, the rate of accurate diagnosis for early gastric cancer differs a great deal on where to set its diagnostic criteria. False positive cases increase as false negative ones diminuish. They are in a place relative to each other.
