About this trial

The primary aim of this trial is to rigorously evaluate the comparative benefits and potential risks associated with Billroth II reconstruction with Braun anastomosis versus Billroth II reconstruction alone following distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy in patients diagnosed with gastric cancer. This assessment focuses on delineating the therapeutic efficacy, safety profile, and overall clinical outcomes of these two surgical approaches in treating this condition.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Histologically proven stage I-III gastric cancer, evaluated as radically resectable

No synchronous or metachronous cancers

Patients have signed informed consent forms

Age 18-80 years old

Disqualifiers

Pregnant or lactating women

Distant metastasis to the liver, lung, bone, supraclavicular lymph nodes, pelvic, or ovarian species and peritoneal dissemination

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Billroth II reconstruction

    Procedure/Surgery

    Billroth II reconstruction, in which a loop of jejunum is mobilized and anastomosed to the gastric remnant

  • Braun Anastomosis

    Procedure/Surgery

    This is an additional surgical connection (anastomosis) created between two parts of the small intestine, specifically between the afferent (incoming) and efferent (outgoing) limbs of the jejunum near the gastrojejunostomy (the new connection between the stomach and small intestine created during a Billroth II procedure).
