To evaluate the clinical efficacy (safety, feasibility and long-term efficacy) of robotic radical total gastrectomy and laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy in patients with locally advanced middle and upper gastric adenocarcinoma (CT2-4A, N-/+, M0) .
In the field of gastrectomy, Hashizume et al. first reported robotic gastrectomy in 2002. Since then, reports on the safety and feasibility of the application of robotic surgical system in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC) have gradually increased. Reports of robotic surgery for GC are increasing, especially in Asia. Several studies confirmed the advantages of robotic gastrectomy when compared with laparoscopic gastrectomy. However, whether robotic radical total gastrectomy is noninferior to laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy remains unclear. The investigator first carried out this study in the world to evaluate the efficacy of robotic radical total gastrectomy versus laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy for GC.
