Regional lymph nodes and station numbers in gastric cancer. This classification and the station numbers are based on the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma. The details of the nodal station numbers have been described in Table 2 . (A) Perigastric nodes and nodes along the left gastric artery. These nodes nearly correspond to group 1 nodes. (B) Nodes around the celiac artery, along the proper hepatic artery and suprapancreatic nodes. These nodes nearly correspond to the group 2 nodes. (C) The subcategory of No. 6 nodes. (D) Nodes in deeper layers. Para-aortic lymph nodes and No. 19 nodes. These nodes nearly correspond to group 3 nodes.
