Clinical Trial: Totally Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy VS Pylorus-Preserving Gastrectomy for Early Gastric Cancer in the Middle Stomach

U.S., May 15 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06970327) titled 'Totally Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy VS Pylorus-Preserving Gastrectomy for Early Gastric Cancer in the Middle Stomach' on April 26.

Brief Summary: With the development of laparoscopic technology, the surgical treatment of early gastric cancer (EGC) has shifted towards minimally invasive, precise, and function-preserving strategies. Totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) and totally laparoscopic pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (TLPPG) are minimally invasive procedures. However, there is a lack of systematic evidence to directly compare their efficacies.

This study focuses on two fully laparoscopic techniques, TLDG and TLPPG...
