Practice of single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery in China
Journal Title: Journal of Surgery : Concepts & Practice - Year 2023, Vol 28, Issue 3
Abstract
The application and development of laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer has experienced a history of more than two decades, from exploratory development to clinical validation, and then to large-scale clinical studies. Gra-dually, laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery has been supported by high-level evidence. Laparoscopic surgery is progressively recommended as one of the alternative treatment for gastric cancer and is widely performed in gastric cancer surgery worldwide, especially in East Asia, such as Japan, Korea and China. Single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery was first performed for cholecystectomy and appendectomy, is becoming more popular among gastrointestinal surgeons due to its minimally invasive outcomes and better cosmetic effects. However, the clinical application of single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer is still in the exploratory stage. The results of initially observational studies have shown that single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery have potential advantages in terms of cosmetic results and enhanced recovery after surgery compared with the conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer. But its surgical safety and feasibility are still not confirmed by high-level evidence of evidence-based medicine.
