This study investigates the evolving trends and challenges in gastrectomy procedures in Japan, drawing on two nationwide surveys conducted in 2014 and 2021. Results show a significant shift toward minimally invasive and function‐preserving surgeries, such as laparoscopic and robot‐assisted gastrectomy, with an emphasis on enhancing postoperative ...

Ghrelin is a peptide hormone that was originally isolated from the stomach as the endogenous ligand for the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR). Ghrelin has many functions, including the regulation of appetite and gut motility, growth hormone release from the anterior pituitary and roles in the cardiovascular and immune systems. Ghrelin and its

We developed a novel super subtotal gastrectomy (SSTG) technique for upper‐third gastric cancer near the esophagogastric junction. This method preserves the gastric fornix, a major site of ghrelin secretion, while maintaining an oral margin beyond the esophageal junction. SSTG offers a potential solution for reducing postoperative complications such as
