Figure 5 Overall survival curves of patients in the laparoscopic-assisted tailored subtotal gastrectomy and laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy groups. Overall survival was better in the laparoscopic-assisted tailored subtotal gastrectomy (LaTSG) group than in the laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy (LaTG) group. Subgroup analysis showed that compared to LaTG, LaTSG improved the survival of patients with stage III cancer, but not for other stages (stages I and II). LaTSG: Laparoscopic-assisted tailored subtotal gastrectomy; LaTG: Laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy.
