  1. LPG-GT, laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with gastric tube reconstruction
  2. LPG-DFT, laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy double-flap technique reconstruction
  3. BMI, body mass index; TNM, tumor-node-metastasis. TNM staging was performed according to the AJCC 8th edition
  4. a Variables are described using medians and interquartile ranges (IQR), and the P valueswere calculated using the Mann-Whitney U-test
