The development of adhesive small bowel obstruction was set as the endpoint. The association with clinical factors was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards regression analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>During a median follow-up period of 5.8 years (interquartile range 2.4\u201311.7 years), 195 patients (7.1%) developed adhesive small bowel obstruction. Among them, 69 cases (35.4%) were reported within the first year after surgery, whereas 31 cases (15.9%) developed after 10 years. Multivariate analysis identified ileus during hospitalization, open surgical approach (hazards ratio [HR] 2.16), male sex, blood loss\u2009\u2265\u2009224 mL, and history of abdominal surgery as independent risk factors (HRs: 2.86, 2.16, 1.93, 1.89, and 1.46, respectively).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adhesive small bowel obstruction after gastric cancer surgery can develop beyond the conventional 5-year follow-up period, and the risk persists even after 10 years.
