Abstract: Robotic surgery for gastric cancer is an important development in the minimally invasive surgery of gastric cancer. In recent years, robotic surgery for gastric cancer has developed rapidly. The Robotic and Laparoscopic Surgery Committee of Chinese Research Hospital Association and Chinese Gastric Cancer Association organize experts of minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer to revise the Expert consensus on robotic surgery in gastric cancer(2015 edition) in terms of development current situation, surgical indication, surgical procedure and perioperative manage-ment, and formulate the Chinese expert consensus on robotic surgery for gastric cancer(2021 edition), in order to provide guidance and reference for further development of robotic surgery for gastric cancer in China.
