Abstract:
China has gone through 30 years of laparoscopic gastric cancer from the first case to the widespread use of laparoscopic radical gastrectomy in various medical centers.During this period, China has developed rapidly in the field of laparoscopic lymph node dissection and anastomosis for gastric cancer and laparoscopic gastric cancer evidence-based research. Chinese physicians have completed the transition from the initial followers to the rational participants and researchers. Nowadays, new minimally invasive surgery techniques and new treatment concepts are emerging one after another. Individualized and precise minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer is the future development direction. We should actively promote the development of new minimally invasive techniques and further improve the level of minimally invasive surgery in China.
