Abstract:
The proportion of early gastric cancer is rising and the prognosis of locally advanced gastric cancer is improved in China in recent years. To meet the patients' increasing demand for quality of life, function reconstruction and preserving surgery become our focus. The main physiological functions of the stomach include the maintenance of gastrointestinal continuity, the storage of chyme and initial digestion. With different kinds of surgery, these physiological functions can be partly reconstructed or preserved. However, the main challenge we are facing is the lack of evidence. To set an objective method to evaluate the quality of life for function reconstruction surgery and to verify the oncological efficacy of function preserving surgery are the problems we need to solve. Conducting related studies to lay the foundation for function reconstruction and preserving surgery is an important future direction for Chinese surgeons.
