Stomach cancer surgery involves removing part or all of the stomach to eliminate tumors and prevent spread. At Liver Surgeons, Delhi’s premier center for stomach cancer surgery, we tailor procedures based on cancer stage, location, and patient health, achieving 60% 5-year survival rates for early-stage cases.
Specialized Gastrectomy, Lymphadenectomy, and Minimally Invasive Techniques with 60% Improved Survival Ratesr
Removal of the entire stomach (total) or a portion (subtotal)
Surgery for gastrointestinal stromal tumors, often minimally invasive
Removal of lymph nodes to prevent metastasis
Relieves obstruction or bleeding in advanced cancers
Accuracy in preoperative staging

Mrs. Patel’s GIST Journey:
“A large GIST tumor required complex resection. Dr. George’s minimally invasive approach saved my stomach function. Today, I’m cancer-free and thriving!”
Mr. Verma’s Robotic Gastrectomy:
“Early-stage stomach cancer was treated with robotic surgery by Dr. Ashish George’s Delhi team. I recovered in 3 weeks and am back to my active lifestyle!”
2–4 weeks for minimally invasive surgery; 6–8 weeks for open procedures.
Yes. Post-gastrectomy dietary management includes small, frequent meals, vitamin supplements, and avoiding sugars to prevent dumping syndrome.
Recurrence risk depends on stage. We recommend 3-monthly endoscopies/CT scans for 2 years, then annually.
Yes. Procedures like stenting or bypassing relieve pain, jaundice, and obstruction, improving quality of life.
Total gastrectomy removes the entire stomach, connecting the esophagus directly to the small intestine. Subtotal gastrectomy preserves a portion of the stomach, improving digestion and reducing long-term nutritional risks. Dr. Ashish George’s Delhi team uses 3D imaging to determine the safest approach based on tumor location.
Lymphadenectomy is critical to prevent metastasis but may rarely cause lymphedema or nerve injury. Our Delhi center’s precision techniques, guided by intraoperative fluorescence imaging, achieve 95% accuracy in node removal while minimizing complications.
Minimally invasive gastrectomy (robotic/laparoscopic) offers:
• Smaller incisions: Less pain and scarring.
• Faster recovery: Return to normal activities in 2–3 weeks vs. 6–8 weeks for open surgery.
• Enhanced precision: Vital for complex GIST resections near blood vessels.
Dr. Ashish George pioneered robotic stomach cancer surgery in Delhi, achieving 50% lower complication rates.
Post-gastrectomy care at our India clinics includes:
• Nutrition counseling: Custom meal plans to manage weight and prevent deficiencies.
• 3-monthly endoscopies/CT scans: For 2 years to detect recurrence.
• Vitamin B12 injections: Lifelong for total gastrectomy patients.
