Core Tip	The clinicopathological characteristics, treatment, and prognosis of gastric stump cancer (GSC) after distal gastrectomy have been well investigated, however, there is limited information on GSC after proximal gastrectomy (PG). We revealed characteristics of GSC in detail using the largest number of patients to date. Our results suggest that surgical approaches can achieve satisfactory outcomes in GSC following PG. The factor associated with OS based on multivariate analysis was advanced T stage and GSC is more likely to be diagnosed at an advanced stage. Thus, endoscopic follow-up of the gastric stump should be conducted to detect GSC at an early stage.
