Background/aims: We conducted this study to compare open versus laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical gastrectomy in advanced upper gastric cancer.
Methodology: We reviewed 84 advanced gastric cancer patients who had pancreas-and-spleen preserving D2 lymph node dissection between March 2008 and March 2012. A comparative study was made about the short-term and long-term effect between laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical gastrectomy (LAG) on 41 patients and open D2 radical gastrectomy (OG) on 43 patients.
