Trial Identification

Brief Title: The Incidence of Gallstones After Gastrectomy

Official Title: Effect of Gastric Cancer Surgical Resection Extent on Postoperative Gallstone Formation: A Retrospected Cohort Study

Study ID: NCT05965466

Conditions

Gallstone

Gastric Cancer

Interventions

Distal gastrectomy and radical resection

Total gastrectomy and radical resection

Study Description

Brief Summary: To provide preventive and therapeutic strategies for participants with gallstones after gastric cancer by comparing the risk of postoperative gallbladder stone formation with two different resection ranges using the Roux-en-Y reconstruction modality in radical gastric cancer surgery.

Detailed Description: A large number of clinical studies have found that the incidence of gallstones in patients after radical gastric cancer surgery is higher than that in the normal population. However, the pathogenesis has not been clarified, and the prophylactic removal of the gallbladder in patients with gastric cancer remains controversial. A previous study found a statistically significant incidence of gallbladder stones after Billroth I versus Roux-en-Y in distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Therefore, the investigators plan to conduct a retrospected cohort study to collect further participants with gastric cancer who underwent total gastrectomy to answer whether different surgical resection ranges during surgery increase the incidence of gallstones this question.
