Résumé

Guidelines regulate how many (tumour-bearing) tissue particles should be sampled during gastric cancer biopsy to obtain representative results in predictive biomarker testing. Little is known about how well these guidelines are applied, how the number of tissue particles correlates with the actual tumour-infiltrated area and how many absolute tumour cells are captured. The study included endoscopic biopsies of untreated carcinomas of the upper gastrointestinal (GI)-tract during the 2016-2020 review period. Archival (H&E)-stained histological sections were digitised and the tumour areas were manually annotated. The tumour-bearing tissue area and absolute carcinoma cell count per case were determined by image analysis and compared with a reference primary surgical specimen. Biopsies from 253 patients were analysed. The following mean values were determined: (a) tumour tissue particle number: 6.5 (range: 1-25, standard deviation (SD) = 3.33), (b) number of tumour-bearing tissue particles: 4.7 (range: 1-20, SD = 2.80), (c) tumour-infiltrated area: 7.5 mm
