Abstract:
ObjectiveTo evaluate the technique and implications of No.12 lymph node dissection for advanced gastric cancer with D2 lymphadenectomy.MethodsIn this study 102 advanced gastric cancer patients undergoing D2 lymphadenectomy from January 2010 to January 2011were retrospectively analysed. ResultsThe average number of No.12 lymph node dissected was 4.3.The metastatic rate of No.12 lymph node was 21.6％.Postoperative pancreatic fistula developed in 4 cases,and lymphatic fistula in 6.There was no anastomotic leakage,lymphatic duct leakage,biliary leakage,post-operative jaundice and bleeding.ConclusionsNo.12 lymph node dissection for advanced gastric cancer is safe and necessary.
