Abstract: As precision and intelligent medicine takeing hold, the concept of minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer has evolved from simply pursuing the effect of surgical results to being more patient‑centered, safer, less trauma, more efficient, and more in line with the spirit of the evidence-based decision‑making comprehensive treatment model. The authors review the develop-ment and technical innovation of precise and intelligent surgery in recent years, and proposes the expanding direction of new paradigm of precise and intelligent minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer based on the work and achievements of team work. It is believed that in the future, advances in artificial intelligence, fluorescence imaging, surgical navigation, optical biopsy and other technolo-gies will bring new vitality to minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer.
