title: Single-incision laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D1+beta lymph node dissection for proximal early gastric cancer.
abstract: Single-incision laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for early gastric cancer has recently been reported by a few centers in Korea and Japan. In this technical report, we describe the world's first pure single-incision laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D1+beta lymph node dissection for proximal early gastric cancer.
