No results posted yet for this study

Summary

With the development of laparoscopic technology, the surgical treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC) has shifted towards minimally invasive, precise, and function-preserving strategies. Totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) and totally laparoscopic pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (TLPPG) are minimally invasive procedures. However, there is a lack of systematic evidence to directly compare their efficacies.

This study focuses on two fully laparoscopic techniques, TLDG and TLPPG, to address two key objectives: (1) whether TLPPG can avoid the long-term functional sequelae of TLDG while ensuring oncological safety, including complications (delayed gastric emptying, reflux, and dumping syndrome), postoperative quality of life (assessed via the PGSAS-37 scale), and survival outcomes; and (2) the balance between complications and survival in function-preserving surgery. The findings aim to provide critical technical parameters for individualized surgical decision-making in EGC.
