Summary: This study confirms the efficacy of laparoscopy-assisted total and proximal gastrectomies as a standard treatment for cStage I gastric cancer through long-term follow-up. The 5-year relapse-free survival and overall survival rates were found to be acceptable.

Summary: Radical gastrectomy with metastasectomy may have a potential role in stage IV gastric cancer patients. Laparoscopic gastrectomy with metastasectomy in selected stage IV gastric cancer patients is safe and feasible.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the benefits of staging laparoscopy for gastric cancer patients. The results showed that tumor type, tumor location, and staging could provide additional diagnostic information for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. The study concluded that staging laparoscopy is a useful tool to guide the most appropriate treatment strategy for gastric cancer patients.

Summary: This study compared the survival outcomes of patients undergoing laparoscopic and open gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer in multiple centers in Italy. The results showed that laparoscopic gastrectomy offers similar survival rates to open gastrectomy, with a higher rate of return to intended oncologic treatment.

Summary: The study investigated the outcomes of CRS/HIPEC in treating synchronous peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer and found that complete cytoreduction and low PCI scores were associated with significantly better long-term survival. In referral centers, CRS and HIPEC after neoadjuvant treatment significantly improved survival in selected patients.

Summary: This study aimed to describe the experience of a high-volume center in Colombia in treating advanced gastric cancer and analyze the short-term results and overall survival rate at 1, 3, and 5 years comparing open and laparoscopic approaches. The study found that laparoscopic gastrectomy was a safe method with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates for treating gastric cancer. In terms of lymph node dissection, laparoscopic approach had advantages over open approach. However, postoperative complications and ICU requirement had a negative impact on overall survival rates.

Summary: This study compared the short- and long-term outcomes of gastric cancer patients with visceral obesity who underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy or open gastrectomy. The results showed that laparoscopic gastrectomy reduced overall complications and postoperative hospital stays, as well as improved long-term overall survival compared to open radical gastrectomy in patients with visceral obesity.

Summary: The mesenchymal cancer phenotype in gastric cancer is associated with poor prognosis and treatment resistance. By identifying gene signature-based molecular subtypes and investigating the tumor microenvironment, the study suggests that targeting the tumor-intrinsic mesenchymal reprogramming could be a potential therapeutic strategy.

Summary: The study showed that the incidence of failure to cure in patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery in the Netherlands is 22%, with factors such as hospital's neoadjuvant therapy management and surgical quality impacting the failure to cure rate. Some hospitals had significantly higher-than-expected failure to cure rates, indicating the need for improvement in surgical quality.

Summary: This study found that staging laparoscopy in gastric cancer patients does not completely avoid surgery, indicating a low sensitivity for detecting metastases or locoregional non-resectability.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with tumor spillage during minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for early-stage ovarian cancer (OC) and develop a scoring system to estimate the risk of tumor rupture. The study found that larger tumor diameter and adhesions to the ovarian fossa peritoneum were independently associated with intraoperative cancer spillage. Additionally, there was a difference in disease-free survival between the rupture group and the non-rupture group.

Summary: LG is a feasible and safe alternative to OG for patients with locally advanced GC receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. LG group had significantly lower hospital stay time and intraoperative blood loss compared to OG group, and had comparable mortality rate, 3-year survival rate, recurrence rate, and metastasis rate.
