This systematic study addresses the efficacy and safety of gastrectomy as a treatment for gastric cancer, considering the diversity of evidence available in the literature. The research involved an extensive search in databases such as PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library, using terms related to gastrectomy and gastric cancer. Studies were selected that investigated the efficacy of gastrectomy at different stages of cancer and compared various surgical techniques. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed, and the data were synthesized qualitatively. The results highlight the controversy surrounding laparoscopic versus open gastrectomy, as well as the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy at different stages of gastric cancer. Clinical implications and gaps in the literature are discussed in relation to clinical decision-making. It is concluded that this study provides valuable insights into the surgical treatment of gastric cancer and emphasizes the importance of an individualized approach. However, further research is needed to clarify outstanding issues and guide clinical practice.
