Abstract
Background The aim of this study was to analyze the oncological aspects of gastric cancer following laparoscopic gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy (LG-D2). Methods We retrospectively evaluated the long-term outcomes of 354 patients who underwent LG-D2 for primary gastric cancer. Recurrence patterns and predictors of peritoneal metastasis were analyzed. Results Median follow-up time was 43.8 months. Five-year overall survival rates for yp/pStages I, II, and III gastric cancer were 93.7, 78.5, and 42.2 %, respectively. Recurrence was observed in 86 patients. Peritoneal metastasis was the most frequent recurrence pattern (n = 51), followed by hepatic metastasis (n = 17). Lymphatic recurrence at distant sites was observed in 10 patients. No locoregional lymph node metastasis or local recurrence was seen. Nine of 51 cases of peritoneal recurrence were detected by probe laparoscopy. Peritoneal recurrence rates were significantly higher in yp/pT4 and yp/pN3 diseases compared with yp/pT ≤ 3 and yp/pN ≤ 2 diseases. Multivariate analyses demonstrated that yp/pT4, yp/pN3, tumor size ≥70 mm, vascular invasion, and undifferentiated tumors were predictors of peritoneal recurrence following LG-D2. Conclusion Long-term outcomes of gastric cancer following LG-D2, including recurrence patterns and predictors of peritoneal metastasis, were comparable to those following open D2 gastrectomy. LG-D2 showed good local control. Probe laparoscopy after LG may be effective in detecting peritoneal recurrence, which is not determined with less invasive examinations, including a CT scan. Future large-scale prospective studies are desirable to evaluate not only surgical but also oncological benefits and safety of LG-D2 for advanced gastric cancer.

Application in advanced gastric cancer treatment. J Gastric Cancer 2014; 14:123-8. [PMID: 25061540 PMCID: PMC4105377 DOI: 10.5230/jgc.2014.14.2.123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2014] [Revised: 06/19/2014] [Accepted: 06/22/2014] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Since there are no proven tumor markers that reflect the course of gastric cancer, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) are commonly used alternatives. However, the degree of progression that corresponds to an increase in these markers, and the values of these markers at different cancer stages, remains unclear. Materials and Methods This study enrolled 1,733 gastric cancer patients who underwent surgery and whose pre-operative CEA and CA19-9 levels were known. Survival curves and mean values of the two markers were compared according to the degree of cancer progression: serosa-unexposed (SU), serosa-exposed (SE), direct invasion (DI), localized seeding (P1), and extensive seeding (P2). Results The 5-year overall survival rates at each stage differed significantly, except between DI and P1 patients (17.1% vs. 10.5%, P=0.344). The mean CEA values in SU, SE, DI, P1, and P2 patients were 5.80, 5.48, 13.36, 8.06, and 22.82, respectively. The CA19-9 values for these patients were 49.40, 38.97, 101.67, 73.77, and 98.57, respectively. The increase in CEA in P2 patients was statistically significant (P=0.002), and the increases in CA19-9 in DI and P2 patients were significant (P=0.025, 0.007, respectively). There was a fair correlation between the two markers in P2 patients (r=0.494, P<0.001). Conclusions CA19-9 can be used to assess DI of gastric cancer into adjacent organs. Both markers are useful for predicting the presence of extensive peritoneal seeding.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the necessity and effectiveness of gastrointestinal decompression after colorectal resection and anastomosis.
METHODS: One hundred patients who underwent colorectal resection and anastomosis from January 2013 to December 2013 at our hospital were included in this study. The patients were randomly divided into either a study group or a control group. The control group underwent conventional decompression treatment, while the observation group did not undergo. The times to recovery of bowel sounds, flatus and defecation, postoperative hospital stay and complications were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: The times to recovery of bowel sounds, flatus and defecation and length of postoperative hospital stay did not differ significantly between the two groups (1.9 d ± 0.6 d vs 2.0 d ± 0.5 d, 4.3 d ± 1.6 d vs 4.5 d ± 1.3 d, 3.0 d ± 1.2 d vs 3.1 d ± 1.1 d, 8.9 d ± 2.1 d vs 9.2 d ± 2.0 d, P > 0.05). The rates of infection and the incidence of anastomotic fistula also did not differ significantly between the two groups (2.0% vs 4.0%, 4.0% vs 6.0%, P > 0.05). The incidences of pulmonary infection, fever and sore throat were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (0.0% vs 10.0%, 2.0% vs 12.0%, 2.0% vs 18.0%, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Gastrointestinal decompression after colorectal resection and anastomosis can increase the occurrence of some complications, and gastric tubes should be removed as early as possible to accelerate the rehabilitation of patients and effectively reduce the incidence of fever, lung infection, sore throat and other complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Staging laparoscopy (SL) is often used to diagnose peritoneal metastasis in patients with advanced gastric cancer, but accurate detection of metastasis can be difficult. We evaluated the usefulness of laparoscopic narrow-band imaging (NBI) versus conventional laparoscopic white-light imaging (WLI) for the diagnosis of peritoneal metastasis. METHODS We excised 37 white nodules from the parietal peritoneum of 26 patients with gastric cancer and suspected peritoneal metastasis. The WLI and NBI findings were compared with the pathological findings. All the peritoneal lesions examined were observed as white nodules on WLI. Intranodular vessels were evaluated by WLI and NBI for (1) vessel dilatation, (2) vessel tortuousness, (3) vessel heterogeneity, and (4) brown spots. RESULTS Each individual abnormal finding had a diagnostic accuracy of less than 79 % with or without NBI. Detection of any one abnormal finding had a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 47.8, 85.7, and 62.2 %, respectively, on WLI and 91.3, 71.4, and 83.8 %, respectively, on NBI, for detection of peritoneal metastasis. Detection of any one abnormal finding on NBI plus clear demarcation of the nodule on WLI had a sensitivity of 91.3 %, specificity of 92.9 %, and accuracy of 91.9 % for detection of peritoneal metastasis. Pathological examination showed that a brown spot detected on NBI correlated with dilated vessels around cancer cells. Vascular endothelial growth factor was expressed in 76.2 % of peritoneal metastases. CONCLUSIONS NBI was more sensitive for the detection of dilated vessels than WLI. NBI could be a useful tool for the diagnosis of peritoneal metastasis during SL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to explore the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognostic factors of gastric cancer patients with metachronous ovarian metastasis. METHODS Clinicopathologic data were collected from 63 post-operative gastric cancer patients with metachronous ovarian metastasis. The patients were admitted to the Cancer Institute and Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Science and Peking Union Medical College between January 1999 and December 2011. A log-rank test was conducted for survival analysis. Possible prognostic factors that affect survival were examined by univariate analysis. A Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis. RESULTS The incidence of ovarian metastasis was 3.4% with a mean age of 45 years. Up to 65.1% of the patients were pre-menopausal. The mean interval between ovarian metastasis and primary cancer was 16 months. Lowly differentiated carcinoma ranked first in the primary gastric cancers. The majority of lesions occurred in the serous membrane (87.3%). The metastatic sites included N2-3 lymph nodes (68.3%), bilateral ovaries (85.7%), and peritoneal membrane (73%). Total resection of metastatic sites was performed (31.7%). The overall median survival was 13.6 months, whereas the overall 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 52.5%, 22.0%, and 9.8%, respectively. The 5-year survival rate was zero. Univariate analysis showed that the patient prognosis was correlated with metastatic peritoneal seeding, vascular tumor embolus, range of lesion excision, and mode of comprehensive treatment with adjuvant chemotherapy (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis indicated that metastatic peritoneal seeding was an independent prognostic factor for gastric cancer patients with ovarian metastasis (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Effective control of peritoneal seeding-induced metastasis is important for improving the prognosis of gastric cancer patients with ovarian metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The survival benefit of palliative gastrectomy in patients with peritoneal metastasis as a single incurable factor remains unclear. METHODS A total of 148 gastric cancer patients with peritoneal metastasis underwent gastrectomy or chemotherapy at the Shizuoka Cancer Center between September 2002 and December 2008 and were included in this study. The effects of gastrectomy and chemotherapy on their long-term outcome were investigated. Multivariate analysis was also performed to identify independent prognostic factors. RESULTS Gastrectomy was performed in 82 patients and subsequent chemotherapy was administered to 55. Chemotherapy was selected as an initial treatment for 66 patients. Median survival time (MST) was identical between patients with and without gastrectomy (13.1 vs. 12.0 months; P = 0.410). Conversely, MST was significantly longer in patients who received chemotherapy (13.7 months) than those who did not (7.1 months; P = 0.048). According to the results of multivariate analysis, chemotherapy (hazards ratio [HR] = 0.476; 95 % CI = 0.288-0.787) was selected as an independent prognostic factor, while gastrectomy was not. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study did not show a survival benefit of palliative gastrectomy in selected patients with peritoneal metastasis. Instead, chemotherapy has to be considered as an initial treatment for these patients.
