Summary

This study compares two types of surgery for patients with early-stage stomach cancer near the esophagus. One method adds a procedure to widen the stomach outlet, which may help prevent severe acid reflux after surgery. The trial will track reflux, quality of life, and complications in 60 participants over time.
