Surgical and Oncologic Outcomes of Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer: Real‐World Data From a Multi‐Institutional Propensity Score‐Matched Study

Key Points

Assess the outcomes of robotic versus laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
Multi-institutional propensity score-matched study design
Comparison of surgical outcomes and complications
Analysis of real-world data from multiple centers
Robotic distal gastrectomy associated with fewer intra-abdominal infections
Shorter hospital stay observed with robotic surgery
Reduced inflammatory response noted in robotic procedures

Abstract

RDG was associated with fewer intra-abdominal infections, shorter hospital stay, and reduced inflammatory response compared with LDG. For advanced GC (pStage III), RDG did not increase operative time and may provide clinical advantages. RG may be particularly beneficial for patients with advanced disease.
