Since the introduction of the nasogastric tube by Levin in 1921, its use remained unchanged even though its serious discomfort. This prospective study was done with one hundred gastric cancer patients to shorten the duration of keeping a
nasogastric
tube after gastrectomy. They were randomely divided into two groups according to the removal time; postoperative second day(group 1) or after gas passing(group 2) In statistical analysis, we couldn't find any significant difference in
complications
between two groups. We recommend rcutine removal of the nasogastric tube in the early morning of postoperative second day ith safe.
