Figure 1 Correlation of overall survival (A) and recurrence-free survival (B) with the distance of proximal resection margin in patients who underwent distal gastrectomy.
Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze OS and RFS according to the distance of PRM. There were no significant differences between the PRM subgroups. OS: Overall survival; RFS: Recurrence-free survival; PRM: Proximal resection margin.
