Estimating LNM risk in MCPs by applying clinical characteristics along with limited histologic data can help inform decision-making when considering formal oncologic resection. The NSS and SSS demonstrated comparable predictability of LNM among pT1Nx MCPs. The models require external validation and may be strengthened by incorporating additional endoscopic and pathologic characteristics.
