Abstract:

Gastric cancer is one of the most important causes of tumor-related death, and surgery is the preferred treatment. At present, the standard radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer is gastrectomy plus lymph node dissection in D2 region. However, the abundant lymph nodes around the stomach and complex drainage pathways determine the uncertainty of metastatic lymph nodes. Therefore, intraoperative lymph node dissection is often incomplete or excessive. With the development of precision medicine, more accurate dissection of metastatic lymph nodes is the focus of current research, and lymph node navigation surgery using lymph node tracer technology is expected to achieve this purpose. This review focuses on the principles, advantages and disadvantages of lymph node tracers used in radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the past decades, and briefly describes some new tracer methods.

Key words: Stomach Neoplasms, Radical Gastrectomy, Tracer, Lymph Node Metastasis
