Key Words Gastric cancer; Vascularizing lymph node dissection; Non-vascularizing lymph node dissection; Clinical outcome
Core Tip This study investigates the short- and long-term outcomes of vascularizing lymph node dissection (VLND) and non-vascularizing lymph node dissection (NVLND) from a single institution. The overall 5-year survival rate was 64% in the VLND group and 59% in the NVLND group (P = 0.047). We draw a conclusion that VLND with D2 lymphadenectomy has overall survival benefit for patients with advanced gastric cancer without significant operative complications and mortality if performed by a well-trained and experienced surgical team. If undifferentiated adenocarcinoma is confirmed by endoscopic biopsy preoperatively or macroscopically enlarged regional lymph nodes are found intraoperatively in advanced gastric cancer, VLND with D2 lymphadenectomy may be a considerable alternative.
