What does a laparoscopic D2 gastrectomy involve?
This is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove part or all of the stomach, combined with a D2 lymph node dissection that clears lymph nodes along key blood vessels. Small incisions are used for a camera and instruments, allowing precise tumor removal and staging. It is considered the standard radical surgery for advanced gastric cancer in many international guidelines.
