We developed a novel oesophagogastric anastomosis technique with an antireflux mechanism (Hao\u2019s Esophagogastrostomy by Fissure Technique). It may have a superior effect on patient weight maintenance compared with the double-tract reconstruction. We intend to conduct a prospective, multicentre, randomised controlled clinical trial to validate this hypothesis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and analysis<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The primary objective evaluates body weight loss at 12 months postoperatively.
