What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pathological TNM staging

    Pathological examination information: The pathology results using surgery/biopsy data are the gold standard, and the depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis are recorded

    Measured: 1 day
