Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Incidence of positive surgical margins after curative gastrectomy ranges from 1% to 20%. It has been suggested that positive surgical margins is an adverse prognosis factor, with a higher local recurrence and worse overall survival (OS). However, the management of these patients remains unclear.

R=0

Patients without positive margins after gastrectomy for gastric cancer

Observation

Intervention Type OTHER

The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of positive margins on the tumour's recurrence and OS after gastrectomy for GC. The secondary outcome was to analyse the possible confounding factors that could affect the recurrence and OS after gastrectomy.
