2. Patients who underwent minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy (laparoscopic or robot-assisted) with R0 resection.
3. Age: 20 years or older at the time of surgery.
4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 at the time of registration.
5. Patients within 5 years after surgery for the primary disease.
