Preliminary Efficacy Analysis of "C" Single Flap Plasty Reconstruction After Laparoscopic Proximal Gastrectomy
A study testing "C" Single Flap Plasty Reconstruction and Normal Reconstruction in people with Gastric Cancer and Reflux Esophagitis, run by Daorong Wang at 1 site in China.
Trial summary
The incidence of proximal gastric cancer has increased significantly in recent years. This may be due to weight gain, alcohol consumption, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and precancerous lesions. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Laparoscopic Proximal Gastrectomy with "C" Single Flap Plasty Reconstruction for Upper-Third Gastric Cancer: a Randomized Clinical Trial.
The incidence of proximal gastric cancer has increased significantly in recent years. This may be due to weight gain, alcohol consumption, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and precancerous lesions. With a deeper understanding of the pattern of lymph node metastasis and the emergence of anti-reflux procedures, proximal gastrectomy has gradually received clinical attention. For early-stage upper gastric cancer and esophagogastric combination cancer cases that are expected to have a good prognosis, the ideal surgical procedure should be to preserve the distal stomach to improve the quality of life and to choose a reasonable digestive tract reconstruction method to prevent reflux. The anti-reflux effect of various proximal gastrectomy digestive tract reconstruction methods and the advantages and disadvantages of various surgical procedures are controversial, and the recognized ideal reconstruction method has not yet been established. Therefore, we propose a reconstruction called the "C" Single Flap Plasty Reconstruction. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of proximal gastrectomy combined with "C" Single Flap Plasty Reconstruction in the treatment of gastric cancer.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
"C" Single Flap Plasty ReconstructionProcedure or surgery
- C-shaped flap creation: A 3.0 cm wide by 3.5 cm high "C"-shaped flap is marked on the anterior gastric wall, 1.5-2.5 cm distal to the stomach transection line. The flap is created by carefully separating the submucosa from the muscular propria using an electric scalpel, forming a left-opening flap. This flap will later be used to cover the anastomotic site. 2. Esophagogastric anastomosis: The esophagus and stomach are anastomosed intracorporeally. After continuous suturing of the posterior esophageal wall to the remnant stomach, the common opening between the esophagus and the stomach is closed. 3. Flap coverage: After anastomosis, the C-shaped flap is sutured over the anastomotic site, reinforcing it by covering both the esophageal stump and the gastric window, which helps prevent complications like leakage or reflux.
Normal ReconstructionProcedure or surgery
- Preparation of the Remnant Stomach and Esophagus: After the resection of the proximal stomach, the remaining stomach is prepared for direct anastomosis with the esophagus. The esophageal stump and gastric stump are aligned, typically without additional modifications to the gastric wall. 2. End-to-End or End-to-Side Anastomosis: The esophagus is directly connected to the remnant stomach, either in an end-to-end or end-to-side fashion, using a stapler or manual suturing techniques.

What does the primary outcome measure?
incidence of reflux esophagitis (time frame: 6 months after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
