ABSTRACT
Background/Aims@#Although gastric neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are uncommon neoplasms, their prevalence is increasing. The clinical importance of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of gastric NETs, compared with NETs in other organs, has been underestimated.This study aimed to systematically evaluate the clinical and pathologic characteristics of gastric NETs based on the 2019 WHO classification and to assess the survival outcomes of patients from a single-center with a long-term follow-up. @*Methods@#The medical records of 427 patients with gastric NETs who underwent endoscopic or surgical resection between January 2000 and March 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. All specimens were reclassified according to the 2019 WHO classification. The clinicopathologic characteristics, treatment, and oncologic outcomes of 139 gastric NETs were analyzed. @*Results@#The patients’ median age was 53.0 years (interquartile range [IQR], 46.0 to 63.0 years). The median follow-up period was 36.0 months (IQR, 15.0 to 63.0 months). Of the patients, 92, 44, and 3 had grades 1, 2, and 3 NETs, respectively. The mean tumor size significantly increased as the tumor grade increased (p=0.025). Patients with grades 2 and 3 gastric NETs more frequently had lymphovascular invasion (29.8% vs 10.9%, p=0.005) and deeper tissue invasion (8.5% vs 0%, p=0.012) than those with grade 1 tumors. The overall disease-specific survival rate was 100%. Two patients with grades 2-3 gastric NETs experienced extragastric recurrence. @*Conclusions@#Although gastric NETs have an excellent prognosis, grade 2 or grade 3 gastric NETs are associated with a larger size, deeper invasion, and extragastric recurrence, which require active treatment.
