Abstract:
There are many controversial issues in the aspects of No.10 lymphadenectomy, such as the necessity of No.10 lymphadenectomy, the value of splenectomy, the most appropriate procedure and the safety as well as feasibility of laparoscopic or robotic No.10 lymphadenectomy. These issues will be discussed in this article from the evidence-based view.
