Core Tip	In gastric cancer surgery comorbidities, nutritional status and geriatric frailty should be assessed to judge surgical risks in preoperative assessment. Improving postoperative recovery by laparoscopic surgery has improved outcomes for these patients. Enhanced recovery after surgery and fast-track programs should aim to further improve recovery after surgery. Advances have been made, however many areas for future research and improvement remain.
