“…In fact patients who were staged endosonographically as T 2 had a median survival of 28 months, those staged as T 3 19 months, and those staged as T 4 only 8 months (p = 0.05). Patients in whom no pathologic lymph nodes were detected had a median survival of more than 28 months, whereas patients in whom malignant lymph nodes were suspected had a median survival of only 8 months, and the influence of EUS N staging on survival was statistically significant (p = 0.02).…”
