Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Splenic hilum remains challenging during total gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy.The application of minimally invasive surgery for advanced gastric cancer is gaining popularity. The investigators aim to compare the safety and feasibility of LTG and OTG for advanced proximal gastric cancer.
