Core Tip	Laparoscopic gastrectomy has been widely accepted as a standard alternative to open gastrectomy for the treatment of early gastric cancer. Its clinical indications are expanding to include more extensive surgeries along with more sophisticated conserving or function-preserving surgeries. Although some controversies limit extensive application of the procedure, including a lack of evidence of oncologic safety and discrepancy between high- and low-incidence countries, laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma could become widespread as new technologies, improved surgical techniques, and evidence from ongoing multicenter trials emerge.
