Abstract
Micrometastases in regional nodes were detected by cytokeratin-specific IHC in 30% of radical resected GEJ tumours without overt nodal involvement. Their presence conveys a worse prognosis with a significant reduced DFS, suggesting that the finding of micrometastases should be included in the staging system.
