Abstract
We could not identify any clinical difference between INT and RY after total gastrectomy 60 months after surgery. The safer and simpler RY method may be a more suitable reconstruction method than INT after total gastrectomy.

Using a population-based dataset, we show the optimal number of LN examined is dependent upon the patient's tumor stage. Across all T-stages, the highest optimal number of LN resected was 15. Since it is possible to estimate but not perfectly predict the stage of a patient's tumor preoperatively, we...
