With the further development of the concept and path of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) and the confirmation of its effectiveness and feasibility in relevant studies, it has been more widely used in clinical practice. In recent years, studies have shown that ERAS is gradually applied in gastrointestinal surgery. By optimizing the diagnosis and treatment program, including preoperative preparation, anesthesia scheme, surgical procedure and postoperative rehabilitation,etc., in the perioperative period of gastric cancer, ERAS can improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer patients to a certain extent, reduce the operation risk, and play an important role in reducing the postoperative stress reaction. ERAS has attracted great attention in order to accelerate the recovery of gastric cancer after surgery.
