Abstract:
Background. Accurate delineation of tumor margin is essential for complete resection of early gastric cancer (EGC). The objective of this study is to assess the performance of magnifying endoscopy with narrow-band imaging (ME-NBI) for the accurate demarcation of EGC margins. Methods. We searched PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases up to March 2020 to identify eligible studies. The diagnostic accuracy of ME-NBI for EGC margins was calculated, and subgroup analyses were performed based on tumor size, depth of tumor invasion, tumor-occupied site, macroscopic type, histological type, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), and endoscopists’ experience. Besides, we also evaluated the negative and positive resection rates of the horizontal margin (HM) of EGC after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) and surgery. Results. Ten studies comprising 1018 lesions were eligible in the databases. The diagnostic accuracy of ME-NBI for the demarcation of EGC margins was 92.4% (95% confidence interval (CI): 86.7%-96.8%). According to ME-NBI subgroup analyses, the rate of accurate evaluation of EGC margins was not associated with H. pylori infection status, tumor size, depth of tumor invasion, tumor-occupied site, macroscopic type, histological type, and endoscopists’ experience, and no statistical differences were found in subgroup analyses. Moreover, the negative and positive resection rates of HM after ESD and surgery were 97.4% (95% CI: 92.1%-100%) and 2.6% (95% CI: 0.02%-7.9%), respectively. Conclusions. ME-NBI enables a reliable delineation of the extent of EGC.
