About this study

Gastric cancer is most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy has been demonstrated to be safe and effective compared with open distal gastrectomy. With an increase in incidences of proximal gastric cancer over the last decades, total gastrectomy has been prefered by surgeons, and laparoscopic total gastrectomy has become the alternative option. However, the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total gastrectomy have yet to be proved completely.
