Core Tip

Core Tip: Which clinical characteristics in female patients with gastric cancer indicate a propensity for ovarian metastasis? Although some studies have analyzed the clinicopathologic features of this special metastatic gastric cancer, there is no good clinical risk factor model to predict the occurrence of ovarian metastasis. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical features of a large cohort, aiming to construct and validate a nomogram to predict ovarian metastasis in gastric cancer.
