Laparoscopic gastrectomy is associated with a low mortality (1.75%) and major morbidity (3.50%). Although technically demanding, especially when a D2 lymphadenectomy is performed, our results have shown that tailored laparoscopic resection based on tumour characteristics with either D1 or D2 lymphadenectomy results in good surgical and oncological outcomes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
