The stomach is the sixth most common cause of cancer worldwide. Surgery is an important component of the multi-modality treatment of the gastric cancer. The extent of lymphadenectomy has been a controversial issue in the surgical management of gastric cancer. The East-Asian surgeons believe that quality-controlled extended lymphadenectomy resulting in better loco-regional control leads to survival benefit in the gastric cancer; contrary to that, many western surgeons believe that extended lymphadenectomy adds to only postoperative morbidity and mortality without significantly enhancing the overall survival. We present a comprehensive review of the lymphadenectomy in the gastric cancer based on the previously published randomized controlled trials.
胃癌是全球第六大常见癌症病因。手术是胃癌多模式治疗的重要组成部分。淋巴结清扫范围一直是胃癌外科治疗中的一个争议性问题。东亚外科医生认为,质量可控的扩大淋巴结清扫术能更好地实现局部区域控制,从而使胃癌患者获得生存获益;与此相反,许多西方外科医生认为,扩大淋巴结清扫术只会增加术后发病率和死亡率,而不会显著提高总体生存率。我们基于此前发表的随机对照试验,对胃癌淋巴结清扫术进行了全面综述。
