Abstract:
Gastric cancer is the most common cancer in Korea, and is often treated by surgical resection. Many postoperative complications or tumor recurrence, however, are managed by the use of imaging-guided interventions. This review describes the spectrum of postoperative complications that occur following gastrectomy, with an emphasis on the interventional procedures used to manage postoperative complications and tumor recurrence.
