Hypoxic Tumor-Derived Exosomal miR-199a-3p Promote Gastric Cancer Metastasis via MAP3K4.

Proximal gastrectomy is more frequently recommended for early upper gastric cancer and Siewert II gastroesophageal junction cancer less than 4 cm in length. After proximal gastrectomy, the anatomical structure of the gastroesophageal junction can be destroyed, and the anti-reflux effect of the cardia is lost. In recent years, as various anti-reflux reconstructions have been developed, some functions of the stomach are retained, and serious reflux esophagitis is avoided after proximal gastrectomy. In this article, we summarized the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of various classic reconstruction and latest improved reconstruction method including esophageal and residual stomach anastomosis, tubular gastroesophageal anastomosis, muscle flap anastomosis, jejunal interposition, and double-tract reconstruction.
