This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing two different surgical approaches for patients with stomach cancer who need their entire stomach removed. Doctors will compare an OGT-assisted overlap method (a newer technique that uses a special tube to help guide the surgery) with a traditional overlap method (the standard approach used for many years). The goal is to find out which method is faster, safer, and leads to better recovery.
When the entire stomach is removed for cancer, surgeons need to reconnect the esophagus (food pipe) to the small intestine. This trial exists to see whether the newer OGT-assisted technique can make this reconnection faster and with fewer complications than the traditional method.

If you join this trial, you will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two surgical techniques for your total gastrectomy (stomach removal). Your surgical team will perform the procedure using minimally invasive (laparoscopic) surgery. After surgery, doctors will monitor you during your hospital stay and track how quickly you recover, including any complications and how long you need to stay in the hospital.
