Abstract:
The incidence of proximal gastric cancer worldwide is increasing year by year, and radical gastrectomy is still the main treatment. Partial function preserving in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy has been continuously concerned in recent years, with the development of laparoscopic minimally invasive technology. However, the choice of digestive tract reconstruction is still controversial, due to the specificity of tumor location. This article reviews the current digestive tract reconstruction after laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy, and provides some references for clinicians to choose the digestive tract reconstruction methods rationally.
