Abstract:
Total gastrectomy is a very important mode of therapy for gastric cancer.Many different types of reconstruction have been proposed,but there is no definitive conclusions as to which procedure is the best because of the postoperative complications,such as dumping syndrome,regurgitant esophagitis,malnutrition and so on.In this review,the author summarized recent clinical studies addressing gastrointestinal reconstruction following total gastrectomy.There is still some debate on preserving duodenal passage and the pouch reconstruction can provide improvement of the quality of life in patients receiving total gastrectomy.
