How Distal Gastrectomy + Reconstruction is performed
Under general anesthesia, laparoscopic instruments are inserted, the distal stomach and related adhesions are freed, the diseased segment is resected while preserving adequate blood supply; Billroth I/II or Roux-en-Y reconstruction is selected based on anatomy and assessment to restore the food passage, and drainage is placed if necessary. Postoperative monitoring includes vital signs, pain, and bowel function, with the goal of relieving obstruction and gradually resuming food intake. This is general health information, not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
