Core Tip This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the efficacy, safety, and nutritional outcomes of Kamikawa anastomosis following proximal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Our findings suggest that Kamikawa anastomosis offers favorable anti-reflux benefits with a low incidence of anastomotic complications, including leakage and stenosis. The procedure is associated with acceptable postoperative outcomes, although it requires longer operative times compared to total gastrectomy. Despite some nutritional loss, the overall clinical profile supports its viability as an option for proximal gastrectomy, addressing a significant gap in surgical decision-making for gastric cancer.
