Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to explore the short-term, long-term and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic No. 14v lymph node dissection in advanced lower third gastric cancer.
Detailed description
A prospective randomized comparison of laparoscopic No. 14v lymph node dissection in advanced lower third gastric cancer will be performed, to evaluate the short-term, long-term and oncological outcomes. The evaluation parameters are perioperative clinical efficacy, postoperative life quality, immune function and 3-year survival and recurrence rates.
Interventions
PROCEDURED2 lymphadenectomy including No. 14v
After exclusion of T4b, or distant metastasis case by diagnostic laparoscopy, Laparoscopic distal with D2 lymphadenectomy including No. 14v Lymph Node Dissection will be performed with curative treated intent. The type of reconstruction will be selected according to the surgeon's experience
PROCEDURElymphadenectomy excluding No. 14v
After exclusion of T4b, or distant metastasis case by diagnostic laparoscopy, Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy excluding No. 14v Lymph Node Dissection will be performed with curative treated intent. The type of reconstruction will be selected according to the surgeon's experience
