Laparoscopic vs open gastrectomy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for locally advanced gastric cancer: comparative short- and long-term outcomes
Laparoscopic gastrectomy provides non-inferior technical safety and oncologic outcomes compared to open gastrectomy for LAGC after NAC. Given its benefits of being minimally invasive, such as attenuated surgical trauma and faster postoperative recovery, LG should be considered a standard therapeutic option for appropriately selected patients.
