Core Tip This letter highlights the potential of machine learning models in predicting delayed wound healing after radical gastrectomy. By leveraging routinely available clinical and laboratory parameters, interpretable models such as decision trees may support early risk stratification and postoperative monitoring. However, external validation and the use of pre- or intraoperative variables are essential before widespread clinical adoption.
