Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to verify the safety and efficacy of single or reduced ports laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Gastric Cancer Gastric Adenocarcinoma Procedure: Single port or reduced ports laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Since two cases of single-incision laparoscopic gastrectomy in early gastric cancer were reported in 2011, the safety and efficacy of single-incision laparoscopic gastrectomy in early gastric cancer have been reported several times.

Recently, the feasibility of laparoscopic single-incision gastrectomy in some advanced gastric cancer has already been reported.

The total number of retrieved lymph nodes during gastric cancer surgery is one of the most important indicators for securing oncological safety and predicting the therapeutic effect in gastric cancer surgery.

Therefore, in order to prospectively evaluate the efficacy of single-incision or reduced-port laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer as an oncological operation, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the number of resected lymph nodes after D2 lymph node dissection in single-incision or reduced-port laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer.

All surgeries are performed as single-incision laparoscopic surgery using a 3-4 cm umbilical incision, and D2 lymph node dissection is performed according to the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines 2018 by the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association.

When an additional trocar is required, it is classified as reduced port laparoscopy when one additional trocar is added.

For surgical assistance, including effective visual field development during surgery, a self intra-corporeal retractor (FJ clip®, or Internal organ retractor®) or an additional trocar (up to 1 trocar) could be used.

An articulating laparoscopic surgical instrument (Artisential ®) can be used for safe access to difficult areas of the D2 lymph node dissection, such as the superior border of the pancreas.

Before the end of the surgery, the surgeon evaluates the completeness of D2 lymph node dissection and radical resection of the primary tumor(R0 resection). If insufficient, the operation is converted to multi-port laparoscopic surgery or open surgery, and additional D2 lymph node dissection and tumor resection are performed, and those cases are recorded separately in the registry as multiport/open conversion.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. number of retrieved lymph nodes [ Time Frame: during operation ]
    number of retrieved lymph nodes during operation


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. postoperative complications [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
    Postoperative complications are problems that can happen after participants have had surgery but which were not intended.

  2. Quality of life of the participants [ Time Frame: before surgery (within 1 month before the day of surgery), within 1 week after surgery, within 1 month after surgery, within 3 months after surgery, within 6 months after surgery, and within 12 months after surgery ]
    The patient's quality of life is assessed using the widely used quality of life questionnaire (European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), sto22) before surgery (within 1 month before the day of surgery), within 1 week after surgery, within 1 month after surgery, within 3 months after surgery, within 6 months after surgery, and within 12 months after surgery, respectively.

  3. 3 year relapse-free survival [ Time Frame: 3 year ]
    3 year relapse-free survival
