Gastric cancer as one of the most common gastrointestinal cancers, radical resection of primary lesions combined with dissection of regional lymph-nodes is acknowledged by surgeons all over the world. By the invented and adopted energy surgical instruments, surgical procedure is safer and easier than before. The newly surgical instruments reduce the post-operative mortality and morbidity combined easy procedures of surgery. As the most popular instruments used in the gastric surgery, ultrasonic scalpel and monopolar electrocautery were received lots of attention and concern. Some studies have shown some advantage of the two instruments, which were they can facilitate the surgical treatment and make the surgery safer and more effective. Although, some small retrospective sample reports claimed that ultrasonic scalpel brought benefit in blood loss, dissection lymph-node intraoperative complications and even postoperative complications. And Korea small sample randomized controlled trail presentation that ultrasonic scalpel can reduced blood loss and surgical duration. However, postoperative complications were with no statistical significance between the two instruments. Cost- effective analysis of the energy instruments is still controversial. Large sample randomized control trail with high quality is needed.
