Current status of randomized controlled trials for laparoscopic gastric surgery for gastric cancer in Korea
View through CrossRef
AbstractLaparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer has rapidly gained popularity as a result of the increased incidence of early gastric cancer in Korea. Although laparoscopic gastrectomy has been considered as an investigational treatment because of the lack of solid evidence of efficacy and safety, it is increasingly regarded as a standard treatment for early gastric cancer. Moreover, solid evidence is anticipated from two studies in Korea, KLASS 01 and KLASS 02, the latter of which examines the suitability of laparoscopic gastrectomy for advanced gastric cancer. The use of cutting‐edge techniques for laparoscopic gastrectomy enables surgeons to deliver various treatment options that offer the best possible quality of life after gastrectomy. In this review, we summarize the current status of clinical trials on laparoscopic gastrectomy in Korea and examine future perspectives regarding laparoscopic gastrectomy for the treatment of gastric cancer.
