Abstract:
The high postoperative recurrence rate of advanced-stage gastric cancer has been an unsolved problem for its treatment. Postoperative surveillance is an important step for the multiple disciplinary treatment. At present, most guidelines worldwide recommended standardization programs of follow-up after gastrectomy, based on different timing and items. Standard postoperative surveillance is critical for the building up of multiple disciplinary team. And to make sure the success of postoperative surveillance, we should specify the timing and items according to different recurrence risks by prediction model. In the end, improving the quality of postoperative surveillance is the key to benefit patients of gastric cancer.
