NCT ID NCT07183150

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study aims to find the best range for removing No.4sb lymph nodes during surgery for advanced stomach cancer. Researchers will track 400 patients to see how often cancer spreads to different parts of these lymph nodes. The goal is to help surgeons remove only the necessary nodes, improving recovery and reducing complications.
