BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) is performed widely, but whether LG is the optimal treatment for sarcopenic gastric cancer patients is unclear. This study aimed to determine whether LG is particularly beneficial for gastric cancer patients with sarcopenia. METHODS: We collected data concerning 604 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer between January 2003 and December 2019. After adjustment using one-to-one propensity score matching, short-term and long-term outcomes were compared between LG and open gastrectomy (OG) groups among patients with sarcopenia and those without. RESULTS: Among patients with and without sarcopenia, the LG group had a significantly longer operative time but less blood loss than the OG group. The two groups showed no significant differences regarding complications. Although 5-year overall and disease-specific survival were similar between LG and OG groups among patients with and without sarcopenia, LG was associated with greater 5-year non-gastric cancer-related survival than OG among patients with sarcopenia (88.3% vs. 78.1%, P = 0.048), but not those without. CONCLUSION: LG for resectable gastric cancer was not inferior to OG regarding complications and outcomes in patients with or without sarcopenia. No difference in overall survival was evident between these approaches, but LG may lessen mortality from conditions unrelated to gastric cancer in sarcopenic patients.
