Tumor Deposit at the Fusion Site of the Right Gastric Mesentery and Left Gastric Mesentery in the Patients With Gastric Cancer Who Received Proximal Gastrectomy With D2 Lymphadenectomy Plus Complete Mesogastric Excision for Gastric Cancer: A Prospective Observational Study

This study aims to evaluate the tumor deposit at the fusion site of the right gastric mesentery and left gastric mesentery in the patients with gastric cancer who received proximal gastrectomy.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

In the 6th edition of the Japanese Gastric Cancer Treatment Guidelines; during proximal gastrectomy, D2 lymphadenectomy includes nodes No. 1, No. 2, No. 3a, No. 4sa, No. 4sb, No. 7, No. 8a, No. 9, No. 11p, and No. 11d. When performing D2 surgery for proximal gastric cancer, the dissection typically includes No. 3a (Lymph nodes along the branches of the left gastric artery, including those below the cardia branch) and No. 7 (distributed along the left gastric artery from its root to the bifurcation of the ascending branch), while not including the No. 5 group nodes (located in the upper region of the pylorus between the root of the right gastric artery and the first branch of the gastric wall). In D2 lymphadenectomy plus complete mesogastric excision (CME) for proximal gastric cancer, a complete resection of the left gastric mesentery is performed without removing the right gastric mesentery. However, clinical observations have shown that there may be a fusion between the left and right gastric mesenteries. Merely excising the left gastric mesentery could potentially lead to tumor residue or recurrence in the right mesentery. This study aims to investigate tumor deposit at the fusion site of the right gastric mesentery and left gastric mesentery following D2+CME surgery for proximal gastric cancer, intending to provide evidence-based medical insights for standardizing lymph node clearance in gastric cancer.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame

Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year
through study completion, an average of 1 year

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
