This paper contains a correction to the error in the method section of ‘Comparison of Short-Term Postoperative Outcomes in Totally Lapa- roscopic Distal Gastrectomy Versus Laparoscopy-assisted Distal Gastrectomy’, J Gastric Cancer 2014;14(2):105-110 (http://dx.doi.
org/10.5230/jgc.2014.14.2.105).
There is an error in the length of Roux limb in the methods of intracorporeal anastomosis. It should have read as follows:
2) Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy
After the gastrojejunal anastomosis was established as in the previously described Billroth II reconstruction, the proximal part of the jejunum was transected using the linear stapler. In case of
an uncut Roux-en-Y reconstruction, a non-bladed stapler was used instead. Two small incisions were made on the antimesenteric border of the distal end of the biliopancreatic limb and on the je- junal Roux limb, 30 cm distal from the gastrojejunal anastomosis.
Finally, a side-to-side jejunojejunostomy was constructed using a linear stapler in the same manner as the Braun anastomosis.
