Title: Efficiency of Complete Omentectomy in Patients with Resectable Gastric Cancer: A
Meta#analysis and Systematic Review
Version: 0 Date: 09 Aug 2021
Reviewer's report:
The authors analyzed the impact of complete omentectomy on the outcomes of patients with
resectable gastric cancer treated with radical gastrectomy.
The topic is extremely interesting and deserves to be further explored to provide evidence and
guidance for the treatment of gastric cancer.
The paper is interesting, well-written, and easy to read. It provides a well-conducted review of
the literature offering an interesting overview of this controversial topic. The aim of the study
is clearly stated.
A subgroup analysis of omentectomy in patients with cT3 or cT4 gastric cancers would have
been useful to provide data in support of CO or NCO. This represents a limitation of the study
but the authors were unable to perform a subgroup analysis since only a few studies focused on
the effect of CO in this subgroup of patients.
Challenging current practice with robust data leading to adequate treatment maintaining the
same oncological outcomes with less invasive procedures represents the direction to follow.
