Short‐term outcomes after totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy with esophagojejunostomy constructed by π‐shaped method versus overlap method

Regarding the overlap anastomosis and recently introduced π‐shaped anastomosis, there is no consensus on which intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy (EJS) methods are preferred using linear stapler in totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG). This study aims to evaluate the short‐term outcomes using two methods.
