Abstract
Objectives: To describe the clinical, paraclinical characteristics and the short-term results of laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis for the treatment of stomach cancer. Subjects and methods: A descriptive and retrospective study on 109 patients undergoing laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis at Vietnam National Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and July 2022. Results: Patients were mostly men, > 50 years old. Duration of symptom onset to hospital admission ≤ 3 months and epigastric abdominal pain were the most common symptoms. The average surgery duration was 202 minutes, 90.8% of the patients had Billroth I anastomosis (Delta shaped). Post-operative outcomes recorded very few complications, with a fast recovery time. Conclusion: Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with intracorporeal anastomosis is a minimally invasive surgical method with a safe early result and fast post-operative recovery time.
