Trial Identification

Brief Title: Comparisons Between Isoperistaltic and Antiperistaltic Gastrojejunostomy in Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy

Official Title: Comparisons Between Isoperistaltic and Antiperistaltic Gastrojejunostomy in Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy, Randomized Prospective Pilot Study

Study ID: NCT02837874

Conditions

Interventions

Antiperistaltic

Study Description

Brief Summary: Billroth-II (gastrojejunostomy) is one of major option after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. The investigators hypothesized that isoperistaltic anastomosis lead to higher incidence of dumping syndrome but antiperistaltic (anisoperistaltic) anastomosis have relevance to gastric stasis or obstruction. The investigators will assess complications, dumping syndrome and quality of life between isoperistaltic and antiperistaltic after distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Detailed Description: Recently, laparoscopic approach has been a option for gastric cancer, especially early gastric cancer. There are growing interest in quality of life in addition to recurrence or survival. There are few report about peristalsis and no report for quality of life according to a direction of peristalsis.
