Clinical Trial: Immediate and Functional Results of Different Types of Reconstructions After Proximal Gastrectomy For Gastric and Esophagogastric Junction Cancer

U.S., March 3 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07441785) titled 'Immediate and Functional Results of Different Types of Reconstructions After Proximal Gastrectomy For Gastric and Esophagogastric Junction Cancer' on Feb. 24.

Brief Summary: Proximal gastric and esophagogastric junction cancers comprise up to 40% of gastric malignancies. For localized disease, proximal gastrectomy is the main radical procedure, but reconstruction of GI tract often leads to significant functional issues.

Rising use of proximal resections and broader indications have increased attention to postoperative quality of life (QoL). Common reconstructions include direct esophagogastrostomy (various types), double-tract reco...
