Figure 2 Schemas of standard gastrectomy, modified gastrectomy due to guidelines, and function-preserving curative gastrectomy with lymphatic basin dissection. Red circle: tumor; Green-colored area: extent of lymph node dissection; Orange area: extent of gastrectomy. The extent of nodal dissection in standard gastrectomy and modified gastrectomy according to the guidelines was D1+. In contrast, the extent of nodal dissection in lymphatic basin dissection was defined as D0. DG: Distal gastrectomy; GL: Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines; LR: Local resection; MDG: Minidistal gastrectomy; MPG: Mini-proximal gastrectomy; PG: Proximal gastrectomy; PPG: Pylorus-preserving gastrectomy; SG: Segmental gastrectomy; TG: Total gastrectomy.
