Development and external validation of preoperative risk models for operative morbidities after total gastrectomy using a Japanese web-based nationwide registry

ConclusionsWe have created the first reported risk models of morbidities associated with total gastrectomy, using a Japanese nationwide database. The risk models developed in this study may be useful to preoperatively predict operative morbidities in patients undergoing total gastrectomy.
