"Risk of Lymph Node Metastasis and Feasibility of Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection in
Undifferentiated-type Early Gastric Cancer".
In the authors' response letter, the authors stated that, "We performed ESD in 13 patients
with UEGC (between January 2014 and December 2021), two patients were lost to follow-
up. Additional surgery were performed in 7 cases, one of them had positive LNM(1/7). The
other 4 cases were followed up until now, only 1 case had distant lymph node metastasis. There
were no LNM(+) in patients with expanded indications for ESD." It is strongly recommended
that this information, particularly the number of patients who received ESD, be included in the
manuscript.
