Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphovascular invasion (LVI) is a poor prognostic factor in various malignancies. However, its prognostic effect in remnant gastric cancer (RGC) remains unclear. We examined the correlation between LVI and disease prognosis in patients with T1N0-3 or T2-3N0 RGC in whom adjuvant chemotherapy was not indicated and a treatment strategy was not established. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients with T1N0-3 and T2-3N0 RGC who underwent curative surgery at the Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine between 1997 and 2019 and at the Kyoto Chubu Medical Center between 2009 and 2019. RESULTS Fifteen of 38 patients (39.5%) with RGC were positive for LVI. Patients with LVI had a significantly poorer prognosis for both overall survival ([OS]: P = 0.006) and recurrence-free survival ([RFS]: P = 0.001) than those without LVI. Multivariate analyses using the Cox proportional hazards model revealed LVI as an independent prognostic factor affecting OS (P = 0.024; hazard ratio 8.27, 95% confidence interval:1.285-161.6) and RFS (P = 0.013; hazard ratio 8.98, 95% confidence interval:1.513-171.2). CONCLUSIONS LVI is a prognostic factor for patients with T1N0-3 or T2-3N0 RGC. Evaluating LVI may be useful for determining treatment strategies for RGC.

Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) and open gastrectomy (OG) on clinical outcomes in patients with remnant gastric cancer (RGC). Materials and Methods: The databases of PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were used to search for eligible studies from inception to April 1st, 2023. Hazard ratios (HRs), mean difference (MD), odds ratios (OR), and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled up to analyze. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) scores were used to evaluate the quality of the included studies. This study was performed with RevMan 5.3 (The Cochrane Collaboration, London, United Kingdom) software. Results: A total of 11 studies involving 535 RGC patients were included in this study. In terms of basic information, we found that the OG group had a higher American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade (≥2) (OR = 0.24, I2 = 54%, 95% CI = 0.08-0.71, P = .01) than the LG group. In terms of postoperative outcomes, we found that the LG group had longer operative time (MD = 33.95, I2 = 58%, 95% CI = 15.05-52.85, P < .01), shorter postoperative hospital stay (MD = 5.08, I2 = 84%, 95% CI = -9.74 to -0.42, P = .03), shorter length of incision (MD = -7.15, I2 = 94%, 95% CI = -10.99 to -3.31, P < .01), earlier food intake (MD = -3.09, I2 = 76%, 95% CI = -4.84 to -1.35, P < .01), and earlier time to first flatus (MD = -0.84, I2 = 0%, 95% CI = -1.09 to -0.59, P < .01). We found that there was no statistically significant difference in overall survival (HR = 0.96, I2 = 0%, 95% CI = 0.48-1.93, P = .92) between the LG group and the OG group. Conclusion: LG for RGC patients had longer surgical time, shorter postoperative hospital stay, shorter length of incision, earlier food intake, and earlier time to first flatus.

Abstract
Gastric stump carcinoma, also known as remnant gastric carcinoma, is a malignancy arising in the remnant stomach following gastrectomy for a benign or malignant condition. Enterogastric reflux and preexisting risk factors in a patient with gastric cancer are the major contributors to the development of gastric stump carcinoma. The occurrence of gastric stump carcinoma is time-dependent and seen earlier in patients operated on for malignant rather than benign diseases. The tumor location is predominantly at the anastomotic site towards the stomach. However, it can occur anywhere in the remnant stomach. The pattern of lymph node involvement and the type of surgery required is distinctly different compared to primary gastric cancer. Gastric stump carcinoma is traditionally considered a malignancy with a dismal outcome. However, recent advances in diagnostic and therapeutic strategies have improved outcomes. Recent advances in molecular profiling of gastric stump carcinoma have identified distinct molecular subtypes, thereby providing novel therapeutic targets. Also, reports of gastric stump carcinoma following pancreatoduodenectomy and bariatric surgery highlight the need for more research to standardize the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of these tumors. The present review aims to provide an overview of gastric stump carcinoma highlighting the differences in clinicopathological profile and management compared to primary gastric carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) has been increasing for various reasons such as a longer life span, medical progress, and others. It generally has a poor prognosis, and its mechanism of occurrence is unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features of and clarify the oncological features of RGC. METHODS Between January 2002 and January 2017, 39 patients with RGC following distal gastrectomy underwent curative surgical resection at the Okayama University Hospital; their medical records and immunohistochemically stained extracted specimens were used for retrospective analysis. RESULTS On univariate analysis, initial gastric disease, pathological lymph node metastasis, and pathological stage were the significant factors associated with poor overall survival (p=0.014, 0.0061, and 0.016, respectively). Multivariate analysis of these 3 factors showed that only initial gastric disease caused by malignant disease was an independent factor associated with a poor prognosis (p=0.014, hazard ratio: 4.2, 95% confidence interval: 1.3-13.0). In addition, tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells expression was higher in the benign disease group than in the malignant group (p=0.046). CONCLUSIONS Initial gastrectomy caused by malignant disease was an independent poor prognostic factor of RGC, and as one of the causes, lower level of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells in RGC may involve in.

Fluorescent Lymphography-Guided Lymphadenectomy during Minimally Invasive Completion Total Gastrectomy for Remnant Gastric Cancer Patients. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14205037. [PMID: 36291822 PMCID: PMC9600016 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14205037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 10/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary The altered lymphatic anatomy around the remnant stomach after initial surgery causes technical difficulties in systematic lymphadenectomy during the completion total gastrectomy. A fluorescent lymphography with indocyanine green under near-infrared imaging is a reliable intraoperative technique for lymphatic identification in minimally invasive gastric cancer surgery. This study aimed to assess the clinical application of fluorescent lymphography in minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer. More lymph node retrieval was demonstrated in minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy with fluorescent lymphography than without fluorescent lymphography. Fluorescent lymphography is an effective tool for the intraoperative assessment of lymphatics around the remnant stomach and systemic lymphadenectomy during minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy. Abstract No study has evaluated fluorescent lymphography for lymphadenectomy in remnant gastric cancer (RGC). This study aimed to assess the clinical application of fluorescent lymphography in minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy for RGC. Patients who had undergone minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy for RGC from 2013 to 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The perioperative outcomes and long-term prognosis were compared between patients who had undergone minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy with fluorescent lymphography (the FL group) and those without fluorescent lymphography (the non-FL group). The FL group comprised 32 patients, and the non-FL group comprised 36 patients. FL visualized lymphatics in all 32 patients without complications related to the fluorescent injection. The median number [the interquartile range] of LN retrieval was significantly higher in the FL group (17 [9.3–23.5]) than in the non-FL group (12.5 [4–17.8]); p = 0.016). The sensitivity of fluorescent lymphography in detecting metastatic LN stations was 75%, and the negative predictive value was 96.9% in the FL group. The overall relapse-free survivals were comparable between the groups (p = 0.833 and p = 0.524, respectively). FL is an effective tool to perform a more thorough lymphadenectomy during minimally invasive completion total gastrectomy for RGC. Using FL in RGC surgery may improve surgical quality and proper staging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) laparoscopic technique has gradually been applied to the treatment of carcinoma in the remnant stomach (CRS), but its clinical efficacy remains controversial.
AIM To compare the short-term and long-term results of 3D laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy (3DLAG) with open gastrectomy (OG) for CRS.
METHODS The clinical data of patients diagnosed with CRS and admitted to the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2016 to January 2021 were retrospectively collected. A total of 84 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled. All their clinical data were collected and a database was established. All patients were treated with 3DLAG or OG by experienced surgeons and were divided into two groups based on the different surgical methods mentioned above. By using outpatient and telephone follow-up, we were able to determine postoperative survival and tumor status. The postoperative short-term efficacy and 1-year and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS Among 84 patients with CRS, 48 were treated with OG and 36 with 3DLAG. All patients successfully completed surgery. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, gender, body mass index, ASA score, initial disease state (benign or malignant), primary surgical anastomosis method, interval time of carcinogenesis, and tumorigenesis site. Patients in the 3DLAG group experienced less intraoperative blood loss (188.33 ± 191.35 mL vs 305.83 ± 303.66 mL; P = 0.045) and smaller incision (10.86 ± 3.18 cm vs 20.06 ± 5.17 cm; P < 0.001) than those in the OG group. 3DLAGC was a more minimally invasive method. 3DLAGC retrieved significantly more lymph nodes than OG (14.0 ± 7.17 vs 10.73 ± 6.82; P = 0.036), whereas the number of positive lymph nodes did not differ between the two groups (1.56 ± 2.84 vs 2.35 ± 5.28; P = 0.413). The complication rate (8.3% vs 20.8%; P = 0.207) and intensive care unit admission rate (5.6% vs 14.5%; P = 0.372) were equivalent between the two groups. In terms of postoperative recovery, the 3DLAGC group had a lower visual analog score, shorter indwelling time of gastric and drainage tubes, shorter time of early off-bed motivation, shorter time of postoperative initial flatus and initial soft diet intake, shorter postoperative hospital stay and total hospital stay, and there were significant differences, showing better short-term efficacy. The 1-year and 3-year OS rates of OG group were 83.2% [95% confidence interval (CI): 72.4%-95.6%] and 73.3% (95%CI: 60.0%-89.5%) respectively. The 1-year and 3-year OS rates of the 3DLAG group were 87.3% (95%CI: 76.4%-99.8%) and 75.6% (95%CI: 59.0%-97.0%), respectively. However, the 1-year and 3-year OS rates were similar between the two groups, which suggested that long-term survival results were comparable between the two groups (P = 0.68).
CONCLUSION Compared with OG, 3DLAG for CRS achieved better short-term efficacy and equivalent oncological results without increasing clinical complications. 3DLAG for CRS can be promoted safely and effectively in selected patients.

Role of New Anatomy, Biliopancreatic Reflux, and Helicobacter Pylori Status in Postgastrectomy Stump Cancer. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11061498. [PMID: 35329824 PMCID: PMC8952228 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11061498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Revised: 03/06/2022] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Distal gastrectomy for benign gastroduodenal peptic disease has become rare, but it still represents a widely adopted procedure for advanced and, in some countries, even for early distal gastric cancer. Survival rates following surgery for gastric malignancy are constantly improving, hence the residual mucosa of the gastric stump is exposed for a prolonged period to biliopancreatic reflux and, possibly, to Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection. Biliopancreatic reflux and HP infection are considered responsible for gastritis and metachronous carcinoma in the gastric stump after oncologic surgery. For gastrectomy patients, in addition to eradication treatment for cases that are already HP positive, endoscopic surveillance should also be recommended, for prompt surveillance and detection in the residual mucosa of any metaplastic-atrophic-dysplastic features following surgery.

Abstract
The factors influencing the time interval from the initial surgery for gastric cancer to the detection of metachronous multiple gastric cancer (MMGC) remain to be elucidated. The present study was performed to evaluate the association between the type of initial gastrectomy or reconstruction procedure and the time interval from initial gastrectomy to the detection of MMGC. A questionnaire survey on remnant stomach cancer was performed by the Japanese Society for Gastro-Surgical Pathophysiology in 2018. Participating facilities were requested to indicate the number of patients who underwent surgery for MMGC between 2003 and 2017, in association with the time interval from the initial gastrectomy until treatment for MMGC by type of initial gastrectomy or reconstruction procedure. Analyses were performed using data from 45 facilities. Gastrectomy for MMGC was performed on 1,234 patients during this period. Pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) accounted for only 3.6% (20/557) of the patients who underwent surgery for MMGC ≥10 years from initial gastrectomy, while PPG accounted for 10.1% (40/396) of patients who underwent surgery for MMGC within 5 years after initial gastrectomy. Billroth-II and Roux-en Y reconstruction accounted for 22.3% (103/462) and 1.3% (6/462), respectively, of patients who underwent surgery for MMGC ≥10 years from initial distal gastrectomy (DG), while such patients accounted for 8.0% (23/286) and 21.7% (65/286), respectively, of patients who underwent surgery for MMGC within 5 years after initial DG. Similarly, the proportion of each reconstruction procedure differed according to the time interval from initial proximal gastrectomy to treatment for MMGC. The types of gastrectomy or reconstruction procedure for initial gastrectomy differed significantly according to the time interval between the initial gastrectomy and treatment for MMGC, and the fact that PPG and R-Y reconstruction in DG is a relatively new method were assumed to be a major cause of these differences.

Matsuo K, Lee SW, Tanaka R, Imai Y, Honda K, Taniguchi K, Tomiyama H, Uchiyama K. T stage and venous invasion are crucial prognostic factors for long-term survival of patients with remnant gastric cancer: a cohort study. World J Surg Oncol 2021; 19:291. [PMID: 34579733 PMCID: PMC8477455 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-021-02400-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The incidence of remnant gastric cancer (RGC) after distal gastrectomy is 1–5%. However, as the survival rate of patients with gastric cancer improves due to early detection and treatment, more patients may develop RGC. There is no consensus on the surgical and postoperative management of RGC, and the clinicopathological characteristics correlated with the long-term outcomes remain unclear. Therefore, we investigated the clinicopathological factors associated with the long-term outcomes of RGC. Methods We included 65 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for RGC from January 2000 to December 2015 at the Osaka Medical and Pharmaceutical University Hospital, Japan. The Kaplan–Meier method was used to create survival curves, and differences in survival were compared between the groups (clinical factors, pathological factors, and surgical factors) using the log-rank test. Multivariate analyses using the Cox proportional hazard model were used to identify factors associated with long-term survival. Results No significant differences were noted in the survival rate based on clinical factors (age, body mass index, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary complications, liver disease, diet, history of alcohol drinking, and history of smoking) or the type of remnant gastrectomy. Significant differences were noted in the survival rate based on pathological factors and surgical characteristics (intraoperative blood loss, operation time, and the number of positive lymph nodes). Multivariate analysis revealed that the T stage (hazard ratio, 5.593; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.183–26.452; p = 0.030) and venous invasion (hazard ratio, 3.351; 95% CI, 1.030–10.903; p = 0.045) were significant independent risk factors for long-term survival in patients who underwent radical resection for RGC. Conclusions T stage and venous invasion are important prognostic factors of long-term survival after remnant gastrectomy for RGC and may be keys to managing and identifying therapeutic strategies for improving prognosis in RGC.

Abstract
Background/Aims Less invasive surgical treatment is performed in East Asia to preserve postoperative digestive function and reduce complications such as postgastrectomy syndromes, but there is an issue of metachronous gastric cancer (GC) in the remaining stomach. This study aimed to analyze the incidence of metachronous GC and its risk factors in patients who had undergone partial gastrectomy. Methods A total of 3,045 GC patients who had undergone curative gastric partial resection at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital were enrolled and analyzed retrospectively for risk factors, including age, sex, smoking, alcohol, Helicobacterpylori status, family history of GC, histological type, and surgical method. Results Metachronous GC in the remaining stomach occurred in 35 of the 3,045 patients (1.1%) 23 in the distal gastrectomy group (18 with Billroth-I anastomosis, five with Billroth-II anastomosis), seven in the proximal gastrectomy (PG) group, and five in the pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) group. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that age ≥60 years (p=0.005) and surgical method used (PG or PPG, p<0.001) were related risk factors for metachronous GC, while male sex and intestinal type histology were potential risk factors. Conclusions Metachronous GC was shown to be related to older age and the surgical method used (PG or PPG). Regular and careful follow-up with endoscopy should be performed in the case of gastric partial resection, especially in patients with male sex and intestinal type histology as well as those aged ≥60 years undergoing the PG or PPG surgical method.

Abstract
Background Gastric stump ("remnant") cancer is the development of a malignancy related to previous gastric surgery. Prognosis in gastric stump cancer, compared with that in primary gastric cancer, is still controversial. Methods From January 1988 to December 2012 at a single medical centre in Taiwan, 105 patients with gastric stump cancer, including 85 with previous peptic ulcer disease and 20 with previous gastric cancer, were analyzed for clinicopathologic characteristics and overall survival (os). Results The 5-year os rates for patients with gastric stump cancer and with primary gastric cancer were 51.2% and 54.5% respectively (p = 0.035). Analysis of clinicopathologic characteristics indicated that, compared with patients having primary gastric cancer, those with gastric stump cancer had more lymph node metastasis (p < 0.001) and had been diagnosed at a more advanced stage (p = 0.047). Multivariate analysis with os as an endpoint showed that age [p = 0.015; hazard ratio (hr): 2.300; 95% confidence interval (ci): 1.173 to 4.509], tumour size (p = 0.037; hr: 1.700; 95% ci: 1.031 to 2.801), stromal reaction (p = 0.021; hr: 1.802; 95% ci: 1.094 to 2.969), and pathologic N category (p = 0.001; hr: 1.449; 95% ci: 1.161 to 1.807) were independent predictors in gastric stump cancer. The os rates for patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer or peptic ulcer disease were 72.9% and 50.0% respectively (p = 0.019). The Borrmann classification was more superficial (p = 0.005), lymph node metastases were fewer (p = 0.004), and staging was less advanced (p = 0.025) in patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer than in their counterparts who previously had peptic ulcer disease. Conclusions Survival is poorer in patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had peptic ulcer disease than in those who previously had primary gastric cancer. Patients with gastric stump cancer who previously had gastric cancer and could receive curative gastrectomy tended to have a better prognosis because of a more superficial Borrmann classification. Regular follow-up in patients who have undergone gastric surgery is recommended for the early detection of gastric stump cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) has a major impact on the long-term survival of postgastrectomy patients. In this study, we established surveillance endoscopy guidelines for postgastrectomy patients based on the risk of RGC. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 6365 patients who underwent gastrectomy at Seoul St. Mary's Hospital from September 2005 to June 2018 were retrospectively reviewed; 85 patients were identified as having RGC. We divided the RGC patients into subgroups according to the interval between primary and secondary gastrectomy. RESULTS The curative resection rate was significantly lower in patients with an interval of ≤ 5 years versus > 5 years (p = 0.017). RGC developed more frequently after Billroth II reconstruction, and at the anastomotic site, in patients with a > 10- versus ≤ 10-year interval (p = 0.006 and p = 0.014, respectively). Similar results were observed based on the 15-year interval cutoff (p = 0.001 and 0.018, respectively). The 5-year overall survival rate of patients with a ≤ 5-year interval was significantly lower than that of patients with a > 5-year interval (60.0% versus 85.7%, p = 0.015), while overall survival did not differ between the ≤ 10- and > 10-year, or ≤ 15- and 15-year interval groups. RGC incidence showed a decrease after around 20 years postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Thorough endoscopic examination should be conducted for up to 5 years postgastrectomy. Routine annual endoscopic follow-up should be performed for up to 20 years after the primary operation for gastric cancer, to allow for early detection of RGC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND remnant gastric cancer (RGC) develops five years or later after previous resection for benign or malignant lesion. The treatment is performed through completion total gastrectomy (CTG) with radical lymphadenectomy. Some reports consider this procedure may be associated with higher rates of morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE to evaluate surgical results and survival after CTG in patients with RGC. METHODS 54 patients who underwent CTG between 2009 and 2019 were included in the study. As a comparison group 215 patients with primary gastric cancer (PGC) who underwent total gastrectomy (TG) in the same period were selected. RESULTS among the initial characteristics, age (68.0 vs. 60.5; p<0.001), hemoglobin values (10.9 vs. 12.3; p<0.001) and body mass index (22.5 vs. 24.6; p=0.005) were different between the RGC and PGC groups, respectively. The most frequent postoperative complications were related to pulmonary complications, infection and fistula in both groups. There was a higher incidence of esophagojejunal fistula in the CTG group (14.8% vs 6.5%, p=0.055). Perioperative mortality was higher in RGC patients (9.3% vs. 5.1%), but without significance (p=0.329). Hospital length of stay, postoperative complications graded by the Clavien-Dindo classification, mortality at 30 and 90 days were not different between groups. There was no significant difference in disease-free and overall survival between RGC and PGC groups. CONCLUSION despite previous reports, surgical results and survival were similar between groups. Higher risk of esophagojejunal fistula must be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Survival rate of patients treated for gastric cancer has increased due to early detection and improvements of surgical technique and chemotherapy. Increase in survival rate has led to an increase in the risk for remnant gastric cancer (RGC). The purpose of this study was to investigate clinicopathologic features of RGC according to previous reconstruction method and factors affecting the interval from previous curative distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer to RGC occurrence. METHODS Medical records of patients diagnosed with RGC at Yeungnam University Medical Center from January 2000 to December 2017 who had a history of distal gastrectomy with D2 LN dissection due to gastric cancer were reviewed retrospectively. RESULTS Forty-eight patients were enrolled in this study. The mean interval of 48 RGC patients was 105.6 months (8.8 years). RGC after Billroth II reconstruction recurred more often at anastomosis site than RGC after Billroth I reconstruction (p = 0.001). The mean interval of RGC after Billroth I reconstruction was 67 months, shorter than 119 months of RGC after Billroth II reconstruction (p = 0.003). On the contrary, interval showed no difference according to stage of previous gastric cancer, remnant gastric cancer, or sex (p = 0.810, 0.145, and 0.372, respectively). CONCLUSIONS RGC after Billroth I reconstruction tends to arise earlier at non-anastomosis site than RGC after Billroth II. Therefore, we should examine non-anastomosis site carefully from the beginning of surveillance after gastric cancer surgery with Billroth I reconstruction for better outcome.

Abstract
The incidence of remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is still increasing. Minimally invasive approaches including endoscopic resection, laparoscopic and robotic approaches, and function-preserving gastrectomy have been utilized as curative treatment methods for primary gastric cancer. However, adhesions and anatomical alterations due to previous gastrectomy make the use of minimally invasive approaches complicated and difficult for RGC. Application of these approaches for the treatment of RGC is still controversial. Endoscopic submucosal dissection is a favorable alternative therapy for the resection of early gastric cancer that occurs in the remnant stomach and can prevent unnecessary complications. The majority of retrospective studies have shown that endoscopic submucosal dissection is an effective and oncologically safe treatment modality for RGC. Subtotal gastrectomy could serve as a function-preserving gastrectomy for patients with early RGC and improve postoperative late-phase function. However, there are only two studies that demonstrate the feasibility and oncological efficacy of subtotal gastrectomy for RGC. The non-randomized controlled trials showed that compared to open gastrectomy, laparoscopic gastrectomy for RGC led to better short-term outcomes and similar oncologic results. Because of the rarity of RGC, future multicenter studies are required to determine the indications of minimally invasive treatment for RGC.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinicopathological features and prognosis of patients who underwent surgery for remnant gastric cancer (RGC) during/after the regular five-year follow-up period after initial distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer that is recommended by the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines. Between January 2007 and December 2017, 40 patients underwent surgery for RGC after distal gastrectomy. Twenty-eight of the 40 patients underwent initial gastrectomy for cancer. We divided the 28 patients into two groups: patients who were diagnosed with RGC during/after the five-year follow-up period after initial gastrectomy, and analyzed their retrospectively collected data. Among the 28 patients, 15 patients were diagnosed with RGC within five years and 13 patients were diagnosed with RGC after five years. There were significant differences in the reconstruction of the initial operation, curative resection, pathological depth of the tumor, and pathological stage of the two groups. Multivariate analyses revealed that the interval between initial gastrectomy and RGC and the pathological TNM stage were significant risk factors for shorter cancer-specific survival. Kaplan-Meier analyses demonstrated that patients with RGC after the five-year follow-up period had a significantly worse prognosis in terms of cancer-specific survival than those who developed RGC within five years. This study suggested surveillance by using the annual endoscopy might be necessary beyond the initial five-year period for patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate long-term gastric cancer risk in male smokers with and without atrophic gastritis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 22,346 elderly male smokers participated in the Helsinki Gastritis Study between the years 1989 and 1993. Serum pepsinogen I (PGI) was measured for the men, and 2,132 men with low PGI (<25 µg/L; a marker of atrophic corpus gastritis) were invited to undergo gastroscopy because of increased gastric cancer risk. Endoscopy was performed to 1,327 men, who were followed up for a median of 13.6 years and a maximum of 25.3 years thereafter. In addition, the gastric cancer risk of men with low PGI was compared to that of the men with normal PGI and to the general Finnish male population of the same age. RESULTS Thirty-five cases of gastric cancer were diagnosed in men with gastroscopy during the follow-up. The incidence rate was 1.94 per 1000 patient years. The men with a history of gastric surgery (n = 180) due to a benign cause had even higher gastric cancer incidence (3.2 per 1000 patient-years). Gastric cancer risk was highest in men with marked intestinal metaplasia in primary biopsies. Compared to the general Finnish male population of the same age, the cancer risk was 1.13 times higher in male smokers with normal serum PGI, and 2.43 times higher in men with low serum PGI. CONCLUSION In male smokers, atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia increase the risk of gastric cancer.

Epidemiology of gastric cancer: global trends, risk factors and prevention. GASTROENTEROLOGY REVIEW 2018; 14:26-38.

Abstract
Gastric cancer remains one of the most common and deadly cancers worldwide, especially among older males. Based on GLOBOCAN 2018 data, stomach cancer is the 5th most common neoplasm and the 3rd most deadly cancer, with an estimated 783,000 deaths in 2018. Gastric cancer incidence and mortality are highly variable by region and highly dependent on diet and Helicobacter pylori infection. While strides in preventing and treating H. pylori infection have decreased the overall incidence of gastric cancer, they have also contributed to an increase in the incidence of cardia gastric cancer, a rare subtype of the neoplasm that has grown 7-fold in the past decades. A better understanding of the etiology and risk factors of the disease can help reach a consensus in approaching H. pylori infection. Dietary modification, smoking cessation, and exercise hold promise in preventing gastric cancer, while genetic testing is enabling earlier diagnosis and thus greater survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric stump carcinoma develops in the gastric remnant after partial gastrectomy. While the frequency of gastric cancer is declining, the incidence of gastric stump carcinoma has remained stable due to the long latency period. As the surgical treatment of gastric ulcers by partial gastrectomy has become much less important, more and more gastric stump carcinomas develop after oncological resection. AIM This study compared the surgical therapy of gastric stump carcinoma with the therapy of primary gastric cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS From 2001 to 2014 a total of 24 patients were surgically treated for gastric stump carcinoma in the University Hospital of Heidelberg. In the same time 428 patients underwent resection due to primary gastric cancer. Both groups were analyzed and compared with a focus on preoperative therapy, intraoperative differences, complications and overall survival. RESULTS Patients with gastric stump carcinoma were older at disease onset (68 years vs. 62 years, p = 0.003). Compared with primary gastric cancer, patients with gastric stump carcinoma were more often suspected of having lymph node (cN+) involvement (51.4 % vs. 41.7 %, p < 0.001) but neoadjuvant therapy was applied less often (48.7 % vs. 14.3 %, p < 0.01). For resection of gastric stump carcinoma, extended resections were more often necessary (54.5 % vs. 28.2 %, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in mean overall survival between the two patient groups (64.4 months vs. 45.8 months, p = 0.34) CONCLUSION: Despite the differences described, the treatment of gastric stump carcinoma does not essentially differ from that of primary gastric cancer. Carcinomas of the gastric stump are more often locally advanced and in our opinion a neoadjuvant therapy should be applied analogue to gastric cancer even if evidence-based data on this point are limited.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Proximal gastrectomy (PG) is a widely accepted function-preserving surgical procedure; however, the incidence and treatment of metachronous gastric cancer (MGC) after PG have been the subject of a number of reports. METHODS We collected data from 1576 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer between January, 2003 and December, 2010, and analyzed the outcomes of 671 patients treated with PG or distal gastrectomy (DG) for cT1N0 disease. We also discuss the treatments for MGC. RESULTS MGC was diagnosed within a median follow-up of 52.8 months after PG and DG in six (6.6%) and nine (1.8%) patients, respectively. The cumulative prevalence of MGC after PG was significantly higher than that after DG; P = 0.005. Univariate and multivariate analysis revealed male sex and PG as significant risk factors for MGC (P = 0.014 and P = 0.026, respectively). Five of the six patients who underwent PG were treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of MGC after PG was significantly higher than that after DG. However, most of the MGCs that developed after PG could be treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of remnant gastric cancer: A single-center retrospective analysis of 90 patients. Int J Surg 2018; 51:97-103.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is significantly poor. However, the mechanism and some clinical features of RGC have not been fully understood and are still under debate. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2000 to January 2014, 90 RGC patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Patients were divided into two groups according to primary disease. Clinicopathological features and survival outcomes were compared between two groups. RESULTS A total of 34 (37.8%) patients were diagnosed with remnant gastric cancer following benign disease (RGCB) and 56 (62.2%) were diagnosed with remnant gastric cancer following malignant disease (RGCM). The mean time interval from the primary operation to the development of RGC was 12.5 ± 13.3 years in all RGC patients. The mean time interval in RGCB was significantly longer than that in RGCM (P < 0.01). The 1-, 2-, and 3- year overall survival rates of all patients were 56.1%, 38.2% and 33.2%, respectively. Univariate analysis indicated that tumor size, curability, histology type, serosa invasion, nodal involvement and distant metastasis were prognostic factors for RGC. The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that distant metastasis was an independent prognostic factor for RGC. CONCLUSION RGC occurred earlier in patients with gastrectomy for primary malignant disease than for primary benign disease, even though the primary disease made no difference to the survival of RGC. Nonetheless, RGC patients experienced dismal overall survival. Therefore, early diagnosis plays a significant role in successfully carrying out curative resection and improving the prognosis for RGC.

Abstract
Gastritis cystica polyposa is a polypoid lesion that arises from the gastric mucosa at the gastrojejunal anastomotic site and is characterized by cystic dilation of the gastric glands. A 78-year-old man who underwent distal gastrectomy for a gastric ulcer with Billroth II reconstruction approximately 40 years previously, exhibited a gastritis cystica polyposa at the anastomotic site. Ulceration was observed on an annual endoscopic examination. Endoscopic ultrasonography revealed a submucosal hypoechoic mass with multiple cystic lesions. Gastrectomy was performed and histological examination revealed a large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma with cystic dilation of the gastric glands. Here, we report the first case of a large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma arising from a gastritis cystica polyposa. Endoscopic ultrasonography was effective at diagnosing a submucosal hypoechoic mass with cystic dilation of the gastric glands.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Single anastomosis gastric bypass (one anastomosis gastric bypass or mini-gastric bypass) has been presented as an option of surgical treatment for obese patients in order to reduce operation time and avoiding eventual postoperative complications after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.The main late complication could be related to bile reflux. AIM To report the experiences published after Billroth II anastomosis and its adverse effects regarding symptoms and damage on the gastric and esophageal mucosa . METHOD For data recollection Medline, Pubmed, Scielo and Cochrane database were accessed, giving a total of 168 papers being chosen 57 of them. RESULTS According the reported results during open era surgery for peptic disease and more recent results for gastric cancer surgery, bile reflux and its consequences are more frequent after Billroth II operation compared to Roux-en-Y gastrojejunal anastomosis. CONCLUSION These findings must be considered for the indication of bariatric surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE In cases of carcinoma in the remnant stomach (CRS), the lymphatic flow may be altered by the initial surgery. In this study of CRS after gastrectomy, we investigated how the regions of lymph node metastasis and changes in lymphatic flow depend on initial disease status. METHOD The study included 76 patients with CRS who underwent gastrectomy between September 2002 and November 2014. We analyzed and compared the clinicopathological factors and survival periods between patients after distal gastrectomy for malignant disease (group M, 33 patients) and patients after distal gastrectomy for benign disease (group B, 43 patients). RESULTS The depth of tumor invasion was more advanced in group B (T1/T2/T3/T4: group M 18/1/7/7, group B 8/11/8/16; P = 0.002). However, the degree of lymph node metastasis did not differ significantly between the two groups. The incidence of lymph node metastasis was high at stations 2 (19 %), 4sa (17 %), 10 (25 %), 11p (19 %), and 11d (27 %) in group M and 1 (14 %), 3 (23 %), and 4sb (15 %), and the mesojejunal lymph node (21 %) in group B. Lymph node dissection was highly beneficial at station 3, station 7, and the mesojejunum in both groups, but not at stations 10 or 11d. CONCLUSION As compared with group B, group M showed higher incidences of lymph node metastasis in the greater curvature, splenic hilum, and lymph nodes along the splenic artery, suggesting the predominance of lymphatic flows from the greater curvature to the splenic hilum and from the remnant stomach to the splenic artery.

Abstract
This article discusses the current National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines and other available Western and Eastern guidelines for the surveillance of gastric cancer following surgical resection. It reviews the literature assessing the utility of intensive surveillance strategies for gastric cancer, which fails to show an improvement in survival. The unique issues relating to follow-up of early gastric cancer and after endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer are discussed. This article also reviews the available modalities for follow-up. In addition, it briefly discusses the advancements in treatment of recurrent and metastatic disease and the implications for gastric cancer survival and surveillance strategies.

Does remnant gastric cancer really differ from primary gastric cancer? A systematic review of the literature by the Task Force of Japanese Gastric Cancer Association. Gastric Cancer 2016; 19:339-349.

Abstract
Remnant gastric cancer, most frequently defined as cancer detected in the remnant stomach after distal gastrectomy for benign disease and those cases after surgery of gastric cancer at least 5 years after the primary surgery, is often reported as a tumor with poor prognosis. The Task Force of Japanese Gastric Cancer Association for Research Promotion evaluated the clinical impact of remnant gastric cancer by systematically reviewing publications focusing on molecular carcinogenesis, lymph node status, patient survival, and surgical complications. A systematic literature search was performed using PubMed/MEDLINE with the keywords "remnant," "stomach," and "cancer," revealing 1154 relevant reports published up to the end of December 2014. The mean interval between the initial surgery and the diagnosis of remnant gastric cancer ranged from 10 to 30 years. The incidence of lymph node metastases at the splenic hilum for remnant gastric cancer is not significantly higher than that for primary proximal gastric cancer. Lymph node involvement in the jejunal mesentery is a phenomenon peculiar to remnant gastric cancer after Billroth II reconstruction. Prognosis and postoperative morbidity and mortality rates seem to be comparable to those for primary proximal gastric cancer. The crude 5-year mortality for remnant gastric cancer was 1.08 times higher than that for primary proximal gastric cancer, but this difference was not statistically significant. In conclusion, although no prospective cohort study has yet evaluated the clinical significance of remnant gastric cancer, our literature review suggests that remnant gastric cancer does not adversely affect patient prognosis and postoperative course.

Abstract
Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) and gastric stump cancer after distal gastrectomy (DG) are recognized as the same clinical entity. In this review, the current knowledges as well as the non-settled issues of RGC are presented. Duodenogastric reflux and denervation of the gastric mucosa are considered as the two main factors responsible for the development of RGC after benign disease. On the other hand, some precancerous circumstances which already have existed at the time of initial surgery, such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, are the main factors associated with RGC after gastric cancer. Although eradication of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in remnant stomach is promising, it is still uncertain whether it can reduce the risk of carcinogenesis. Periodic endoscopic surveillance after DG was reported useful in detecting RGC at an early stage, which offers a chance to undergo minimally invasive endoscopic treatment or laparoscopic surgery and leads to an improved prognosis in RGC patients. Future challenges may be expected to elucidate the benefit of eradication of H. pylori in the remnant stomach if it could reduce the risk for RGC, to build an optimal endoscopic surveillance strategy after DG by stratifying the risk for development of RGC, and to develop a specific staging system for RGC for the standardization of the treatment by prospecting the prognosis.

Abstract
Gastric stump cancer (GSC) is the malignant tumor that develops in the gastric remnant after partial gastrectomy was performed both for benign and malignant lesions. This paper presents the results of the case studies from the scientific literature, which focused on GSC, and has been published in the last 10 years. The search was performed with the help of the specific tools offered by the international databases. The subject was approached because of the constant rising incidence of GSC in the past few years, now reaching values between 1% and 7%. The outcome report is consistent and similar to the period that ended approximately 25 years ago, when general surgeons dedicated a significant part of their activity to treating gastric ulcer. Statistics revealed that the main risk factors are the following: the type of reconstruction after distal gastrectomy (Billroth I or Billroth II), the presence of duodenogastric reflux, the time between gastric resections, and the moment of diagnosis of gastric stump cancer, the initial pathology for which partial gastrectomy was performed, gender, age, helicobacter pylori infection, Epstein Barr virus infection and the presence of vagotomy. All the authors have significantly contributed to the article and have been involved in the writing of the manuscript in draft and any revision stages, and have read and approved the final version.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the perioperative clinical data between hand-assisted laparoscopic and open radical resection of gastric remnant cancer, and analyze the feasibility and advantages of hand-assisted laparoscopic resection of gastric remnant cancer. METHODS The clinical data of 18 patients with gastric remnant cancer who underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic (n=9) or open surgery (n=9) were retrospectively analyzed to compare the perioperative outcomes and recovery between December 2007 and October 2014. RESULTS All 18 patients underwent surgery without post-operative complications. In the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, none required conversion to open surgery, and no intraoperative auxiliary injury occurred. The incision length was (8.78±0.62) cm in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (14.06±0.81) cm in the open surgery group (t=15.565, P=0.000). The duration of the operation averaged (221.11±19.48) min in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (212.89±14.30) min in the open surgery group (t=-1.021, P=0.323). The intraoperative blood loss was (105.56±35.04) ml in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (147.78±41.92) ml in the open surgery group (t=2.319, P=0.034). The number of lymph nodes scavenged was (16.22±2.99) and 16.67±3.28 in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group and in the open surgery group, respectively (t=-.300, P=0.768). The postoperative time to passage of gas by anus was (68.67±10.00) hr in the hand-assisted laparoscopy group, and (79.78±9.16) hr in the open surgery group (t=2.458, P=0.026). Mild postoperative hemorrhage occurred at the anastomotic site in one patient in each surgery group. These complications resolved after treatment. And no serious perioperative complications, such as anastomotic site fistula, massive hemorrhage in the peritoneal cavity or digestive tract or death occurred in either group. CONCLUSIONS Hand-assisted laparoscopic radical resection of gastric remnant cancer is feasible, is of comparable efficacy to open surgery, and offers several advantages including small incisions, mild intraoperative hemorrhage, rapid postoperative recovery, and few postoperative complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is one of the less prevalent gastric cancers. The purpose of this study was to explore the clinicopathological characteristics and results of the operation of RGC following distal gastrectomy. In particular, we examined factors related to prognosis. METHODS Between January 1970 and December 2012, 122 patients with RGC following distal gastrectomy underwent further surgery and were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS Initial gastric diseases included benign (49 patients, 40.2 %) and malignant diseases (73 patients, 59.8 %). Reconstructions by initial surgery included Billroth I (80 patients, 65.6 %) and Billroth II (42 patients, 34.4 %). Tumors were located at anastomotic (44 patients, 36.1 %) and nonanastomotic sites (78 patients, 63.9 %). There were 59 patients (48.4 %) classified with pathological (p) stage I, 19 as p stage II (15.6 %), 22 as p stage III (18.0 %), and 22 (18.0 %) as p stage IV. A total of 100 patients (82.0 %) underwent curative resection, and 22 underwent noncurative resection. The number of cases of postoperative morbidity, 90-day mortality, and adjuvant chemotherapy were 23 (18.9 %), 3 (2.5 %), and 20 (16.4 %), respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the prognostic factors of RGC. Multivariate analysis revealed historical periods, pathological venous invasion, curative resection, and postoperative morbidity to be independent prognostic factors. CONCLUSIONS The prognosis of patients with RGC can be improved by aggressively performing curative resection without causing complications.

Abstract
Remnant gastric cancer is a rare clinical entity. Herein we describe a patient with remnant gastric cancer that presented with afferent loop syndrome 47 years after Billroth II surgery. Symptoms of serious bilious vomiting were an indication to perform early endoscopic diagnosis, followed by complete gastric resection. In particular, patients that have undergone surgery due to benign indications should be examined endoscopically, even a long time after initial surgery.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate remnant gastric cancer (RGC) at various times after gastrectomy, and lay a foundation for the management of RGC.
METHODS: Sixty-five patients with RGC > 2 years and < 10 years after gastrectomy (RGC I) and forty-nine with RGC > 10 years after gastrectomy (RGC II) who underwent curative surgery were enrolled in the study. The clinicopathologic factors, surgical outcomes, and prognosis were compared between RGC I and RGC II.
RESULTS: There was no significant difference in surgical outcomes between RGC I and RGC II. For patients reconstructed with Billroth II, significantly more patients were RGC II compared with RGC (71.9% vs 21.2%, P < 0.001), and more RGC II patients had anastomotic site locations compared to RGC I (31.0% vs 56.3%, P = 0.038). The five-year survival rates for the patients with RGC I and RGC II were 37.6% and 47.9%, respectively, but no significant difference was observed. Borrmann type and tumor stage were confirmed to be independent prognostic factors in both groups.
CONCLUSION: RGC II is located on the anastomotic site in higher frequency and more cases develop after Billroth II reconstruction than RGC I.

Abstract
AIM: To elucidate the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of gastric stump cancer (GSC).
METHODS: The clinical data for 92 patients with GSC were collected at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center. The prognostic factors were analyzed with Cox proportional hazard models.
RESULTS: GSC tended to occur within 25 years following the primary surgery, when the initial disease is benign, whereas it primarily occurred within the first 15 years post-operation for gastric cancer. Patients with regular follow-up after primary surgery had a better survival rate. The multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that Borrmann type I/II (HR = 3.165, 95%CI: 1.055-9.500, P = 0.040) and radical resection (HR = 1.780, 95%CI: 1.061-2.987, P = 0.029) were independent prognostic factors for GSC. The overall 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates of the 92 patients were 78.3%, 45.6% and 27.6%, respectively. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates of those undergoing radical resection were 79.3%, 52.2%, and 37.8%, respectively. The 5-year survival rates for stages I, II, III, and IV were 85.7%, 47.4%, 16.0%, and 13.3%, respectively (P = 0.005).
CONCLUSION: The appearance of GSC occurs sooner in patients with primary malignant cancer than in patients with a primary benign disease. Therefore, close follow-up is necessary. The overall survival of patients with GSC is poor, and curative resection can improve their prognosis.

Abstract
Gastric cancer in remnant stomach is a rare tumor but with poor prognosis. Compared with conventional open surgery, laparoscopic gastrectomy has potential benefits for these patients due to advantages resulting from its minimally invasive approach. Herein, we report on three patients with gastric cancer in remnant stomach who underwent laparoscopic total gastrectomy with intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy successfully. The operative time was 280, 250 and 225 minutes, the estimated blood loss was 100, 80 and 50 ml and the length of postoperative hospital stay was seven, eight and nine days respectively. Our experience has suggested that laparoscopic total gastrectomy with intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy can be a safe, feasible and promising option for patients with gastric cancer in remnant stomach.

Abstract
Gastric stump carcinoma was initially reported by Balfore in 1922, and many reports of this disease have since been published. We herein review previous reports of gastric stump carcinoma with respect to epidemiology, carcinogenesis, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, Epstein-Barr virus infection, clinicopathologic characteristics and endoscopic treatment. In particular, it is noteworthy that no prognostic differences are observed between gastric stump carcinoma and primary upper third gastric cancer. In addition, endoscopic submucosal dissection has recently been used to treat gastric stump carcinoma in the early stage. In contrast, many issues concerning gastric stump carcinoma remain to be clarified, including molecular biological characteristics and the carcinogenesis of H. pylori infection. We herein review the previous pertinent literature and summarize the characteristics of gastric stump carcinoma reported to date.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Food residue in the remnant stomach after subtotal gastrectomy (STG) interferes with endoscopic observation. We investigated whether intravenous erythromycin improves gastric mucosa visualization in patients with STG. METHODS This study was conducted from April 2012 to October 2012 as a double-blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized trial. Patients who received STG with complete resection (stage T1-2N0M0) were included. Exclusion criteria were diabetes mellitus, neurologic disease, myopathy, recent viral enteritis history, concomitant therapy influencing gastrointestinal motility and severe comorbidity. Patients were instructed to consume a soft diet for dinner between 1800 and 2000 h, and endoscopies were performed between 0900 and 1200 h. Patients were assigned randomly to receive either erythromycin (125 mg in normal saline 50 cc) or placebo saline. The endoscopy was performed 15 min after infusion. Grade of residual food was rated as follows: G0, no residual food; G1, a small amount of residual food; G2, a moderate amount of residual food; G3, a moderate amount of residual food that hinders observation of the entire surface, even with body rolling; G4, a great amount of residual food such that endoscopic observation is impossible. RESULTS When good visibility was defined as G0+G1, visibility was significantly better in the erythromycin group (61 + 19 %) than in the placebo group (38 + 12 %, p < 0.001). However, this effect was not seen in patients within 6 months after gastrectomy. The risk factor for food stasis in the placebo group (n = 58) was food stasis at last endoscopy. The only factor predicting erythromycin response in the erythromycin group (n = 56) was elapsed time since surgery. Adverse effects included nausea [11 (19.7 %)] and vomiting [1 (1.8 %)] in the erythromycin group and vomiting [3 (5.2 %)] in the placebo group. However, they were transient and tolerable. CONCLUSIONS Premedication with erythromycin improves mucosal visualization during endoscopy in patients with STG. ( CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01659619).

Abstract
A 75-years old man was hospitalized with symptoms which suggested gastric cancer. Thirty-eight years ago, he had undergone a Billroth-II gastric reconstruction for a peptic ulcer. At the present admission, he had presented with an eight-month history of recurrent haematemesis, epigastric pain, vomiting, and fatigue. The emergent endoscopy showed a type 0-IIc (superficial depressed) early gastric stump cancer in the anastomotic area and total removal of the gastric remnant and the jejunal segment was performed. The histological examination of the surgical specimen showed a gastric adenocarcinoma that invaded the mucosa and the submucosa, without lymph node metastases (pT1bN0 stage). Besides the tumour, enlarged vessels were observed in the submucosa and the muscularis propria, some of which were thrombotic. The surrounding normal gastric wall also presented submucosal oversized vascular spaces, some of which were protruding through the muscularis mucosae in the mucosal layer. Based on these characteristics and the recurrent haematemesis, a final diagnosis of early gastric stump carcinoma which was associated with Dieulafoy's lesion was made. This association has not yet been reported in the literature and it allowed us to diagnose the gastric stump cancer in a very early stage.

Abstract
Since the concept of early gastric cancer was first described in Japan in 1962, its treatment has evolved from curative surgical resection to endoscopic resection, initially with polypectomy to more recently with endoscopic submucosal dissection. As worldwide experience with these endoscopic techniques evolve and gain acceptance, studies have confirmed its comparable effectiveness with historical surgical outcomes in carefully selected patients. The criteria for endoscopic resection have expanded to offer more patients improved quality of life, avoiding the morbidity and mortality associated with surgery. This article summarizes the evolutional role of endoscopic and surgical therapy in early gastric cancer.
