Core Tip	Since surgical techniques might differ over time and between countries, we aimed to evaluate international preferences in gastric cancer surgery by means of a cross-sectional survey. Surgical preferences for gastric cancer surgery vary between surgeons worldwide. Minimally invasive gastrectomy is still not widely adapted, but most popular in Asia to treat patients with early gastric cancer. Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy is used by the majority of surgeons worldwide. A D1+ lymphadenectomy is preferred for early gastric cancer and a D2 lymphadenectomy is preferred for advanced gastric cancer.
