U.S., April 24 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06941168) titled 'Potential Advantages of Robotic Total Gastrectomy in Advanced Middle-Upper Gastric Cancer: A Multicenter Propensity Score Matching Analysis' on April 16.
Brief Summary: This multicenter retrospective cohort study aimed to evaluate the potential advantages of robotic total gastrectomy (RTG) compared to laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) in patients with advanced middle and upper gastric cancer (AMUGC). A total of 1,099 patients who underwent radical total gastrectomy between 2013 and 2020 were included.
