Abstract
A 70-year-old man was diagnosed with early gastric cancer with ulcerative findings. Endoscopic submucosal dissection as an absolute indication was performed, and en bloc resection was achieved. Pathological examination revealed a well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, 3 × 2 mm in size, intramucosal, with an ulcerative scar, no lymphovascular invasion, and a tumor-free margin. We diagnosed it as a curative resection and followed up with annual endoscopy. Sixteen months after endoscopic submucosal dissection, esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a singular ulcer scar; however, serum carcinoembryonic antigen level was elevated. Computed tomography scan showed wall thickening of the gastric antrum and an irregular mass on the dorsal side. Additionally, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/coomputed tomography showed 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the gastric antrum, irregular mass, and liver. Endoscopic ultrasonography revealed an internally heterogeneous mass in the gastric antrum region extending from the submucosal layer to the muscularis propria layer. Using an endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle biopsy with a 22-gauge needle for the mass, we diagnosed local recurrence with the submucosal tumor-like appearance, lymph node metastasis, and liver metastases. Unfortunately, the patient died of gastric cancer 3 months after the diagnosis. Here, we report a rare case of local recurrence in the submucosal layer, lymph node metastasis, and liver metastases 16 months after curative endoscopic submucosal dissection.

Abstract
Aim Antiseptics used at surgical sites are vital to preventing surgical site infections (SSI). In this study, a comparative investigation of the novel antiseptics olanexidine gluconate (OG) and povidone-iodine (PI) was conducted to determine whether OG is more effective than PI against SSI after gastrointestinal surgery. Methods This prospective, randomized, single-blind, interventional, single-center study was conducted between August 2018 and February 2021. Patients scheduled for large-scale gastrointestinal surgeries were randomized into two groups and administered OG (OG group) or PI (PI group) as preoperative antiseptics. The primary endpoint was the SSI occurrence rate within 30 days after surgery. Results In total, 525 patients were enrolled in this study, of whom 256 and 254 were in the OG and PI groups, respectively. The total SSI occurrence rate in the OG group (10.8%; n = 26) and the PI group (13.0%; n = 33) was not significantly different (p = 0.335). The occurrence rate of superficial incisional SSI and organ/space SSI did not significantly differ between the groups; however, that of deep incisional SSI showed a significant difference, with 0.4% (n = 1) in the OG group and 4.3% (n = 11) in the PI group (p = 0.003). Conclusion OG, as a preoperative skin antiseptic, did not reduce the occurrence rate of total SSI. However, deep incisional SSI may be reduced using OG.

Abstract
The patient was a 60s male. He underwent esophagectomy and gastric tube reconstruction for Barrett's esophageal cancer( pT3N1M0, pStage Ⅲ). Postoperatively, anastomotic leakage and mediastinitis resulted in septic shock. On the 8th day after first surgery, he transferred to our hospital. At the time of admission, qSOFA was 3 points. We judged to be difficult to treat with conservative treatment. Emergency right thoracotomy drainage underwent with resection of the esophagogastric anastomosis and cervical esophagostomy construction. He was discharged on the 55th postoperative day with home enteral nutrition. He underwent presternal ileocolic reconstruction on the 97th day after right thoracotomy drainage. On the 19th day after reconstruction, oral intake was started. The general condition is good without recurrence, and oral intake is sufficient at 1 year after reconstruction. We report a case of anastomotic leakage with septic shock after esophageal cancer surgery successfully treated by 2 stage ileocolic reconstruction.

Abstract
Many cases with esophageal cancer recurrence have worse clinical survival. Treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)has been reported to result in significantly longer overall survival. We investigated the clinical outcomes in 30 patients with esophageal cancer recurrence who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by surgery, chemotherapy, and chemoradiotherapy. Results: Of the 30 patients investigated, 25 were men. Median patient age was 70(range 52-84)years. The recurrence sites are as follows: 17 in locoregional, 5 in lung, 2 in bone, 3 in liver, and 5 in others. The overall survival in early recurrence(within 6 months after surgery)cases and multiple recurrence cases were significantly shorter than that in later recurrence(>6 months after surgery)and single recurrence(p=0.031, p<0.01). Of 30 recurrence cases, 9 cases (30%)achieved complete response(CR). Five of CR cases were treated by chemotherapy with ICI. In esophageal cancer recurrence, treatment with ICI showed good response and survival benefit. In future, the indication of ICI is evaluated for adjuvant therapy after surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the risk factors for re-drainage in patients with early drain removal after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS This study retrospectively analyzed 114 patients who underwent PD and prophylactic drain removal on postoperative day (POD) 4 between January 2012 and March 2021. We analyzed the risk factors for re-drainage according to various factors. Peri-pancreaticojejunostomic fluid collection (PFC) index and pancreatic cross-sectional area (CSA) were evaluated using computed tomography on POD 4. The PFC index was calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height at the maximum aspect. RESULTS Among the 114 patients, 15 (13%) underwent re-drainage due to postoperative pancreatic fistula. Multivariate analysis identified a PFC index ≥ 8.16 cm3 on POD 4 (odds ratio [OR], 20.40, 95%CI 2.38-174.00; p = 0.006) and pancreatic CSA on POD 4 ≥ 3.65 cm2 (OR, 16.40, 95%CI 1.57-171.00; p = 0.020) as independent risk factors for re-drainage. CONCLUSION A careful decision might be necessary for early drain removal in patients with a PFC index ≥ 8.16 cm3 and pancreatic CSA ≥ 3.65 cm2.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study evaluated the efficacy of tolvaptan administration at the early stage after hepatectomy to control pleural effusion and improve the postoperative course. METHODS Patients were administered tolvaptan (7.5 mg) and spironolactone (25 mg) from postoperative day 1 to postoperative day 5 (tolvaptan group, n = 68) for 13 months. Early administration of tolvaptan was not provided in the control group (n = 68); however, diuretics were appropriately administered according to the patient's condition. The amount of pleural effusion on computed tomography on postoperative day 5 was compared between the two groups. RESULTS The amount of pleural effusion and increase in body weight on postoperative day 5 showed significant differences in both groups (p < 0.001 and p = 0.019, respectively). However, the rate of pleural aspiration and the duration of postoperative hospitalization were comparable between the groups. The amount of intraoperative blood loss and lack of early administration of tolvaptan were identified as independent risk factors contributing to pleural effusion on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION Early administration of tolvaptan to patients after hepatectomy was found to be capable of controlling postoperative pleural effusion and increase in body weight, but it did not reduce the rate of pleural aspiration or the hospitalization period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical procedures for proximal gastric cancer remain a highly debated topic. Total gastrectomy (TG) is widely accepted as a standard radical surgery. However, subtotal esophagectomy, proximal gastrectomy (PG) or even subtotal gastrectomy, when a small upper portion of the stomach can technically be preserved, are alternatives in current clinical practice. METHODS Using a cohort of the PGSAS NEXT trial, consisting of 1909 patients responding to a questionnaire sent to 70 institutions between July 2018 and December 2019, gastrectomy type, reconstruction method, and furthermore the remnant stomach size and the anti-reflux procedures for PG were evaluated. RESULTS TG was the procedure most commonly performed (63.0%), followed by PG (33.4%). Roux-en-Y was preferentially employed following TG irrespective of esophageal tumor invasion, while jejunal pouch was adopted in 8.5% of cases with an abdominal esophageal stump. Esophagogastrostomy was most commonly selected after PG, followed by the double-tract method. The former was preferentially employed for larger remnant stomachs (≧3/4), while being used slightly less often for tumors with as compared to those without esophageal invasion in cases with a remnant stomach 2/3 the size of the original stomach. Application of the double-tract method gradually increased as the remnant stomach size decreased. Anti-reflux procedures following esophagogastrostomy varied markedly. CONCLUSIONS TG is the mainstream and PG remains an alternative in current Japanese clinical practice for proximal gastric cancer. Remnant stomach size and esophageal stump location appear to influence the choice of reconstruction method following PG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study aimed to evaluate the association between estimated functional remnant pancreatic volume (eFRPV) and postoperative malnutrition after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS The medical records of 131 patients who underwent PD and preoperative computed tomography were retrospectively reviewed. Onodera's prognostic nutritional index (PNI) was assessed 6-months after PD. Patients with PNI values of at least 45 were included in the non-malnutrition group, while those with values <45 and <40 were included in the mild and severe malnutrition groups, respectively. Associations between eFRPV and postoperative nutritional status were evaluated to identify factors predictive of severe malnutrition after PD. RESULTS Fifty-three patients (40%) were included in the non-malnutrition group, while 38 (29%) and 40 (31%) were included in the mild and severe malnutrition groups, respectively. Overall survival was significantly shorter in the severe malnutrition group (p < 0.001). The eFRPV was significantly lower in the severe malnutrition group (p = 0.003; Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test, p < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, eFRPV ≤55.2 mL·HU (odds ratio [OR] = 5.20; p = 0.004), preoperative PNI ≤41.9 (OR = 6.37; p = 0.010), and body mass index ≤19.1 kg/m2 (OR = 3.43; p = 0.031) were independent predictors of severe malnutrition after PD. CONCLUSION The current results indicate that eFRPV may predict low PNI values after PD.

Abstract
PURPOSE Candida spp. cause opportunistic infections in conditions of immunodeficiency. Here, we investigated the relationship between colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. and surgical site infection (SSI) in hepatectomy. METHODS Consecutive hepatectomy cases between November 2019 and April 2021 were enrolled. Gastric juice samples (collected intraoperatively through a nasogastric tube) were cultured. We compared factors related to patient background, blood test findings, surgical findings, and postoperative complications between the Candida + group (positive for colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp.) and the Candida - group (negative). In addition, we identified the factors that contribute to SSI. RESULTS There were 29 and 71 patients in the Candida + and Candida - groups, respectively. The Candida + group was significantly older (average age: Candida + 74 years vs. Candida - 69 years; p = 0.02) and contained more patients negative for the hepatitis B and C virus (Candida + 93% vs. Candida - 69%; p = 0.02). SSI was significantly more common in the Candida + group (Candida + 31% vs. Candida - 9%; p = 0.01). Postoperative bile leakage and colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. were independent predictors of SSI. CONCLUSION Colonization of the gastric juice by Candida spp. is a risk factor for SSI after hepatectomy.

Abstract
A man in his 80s was referred to our hospital with the chief complaint of perianal erosion. Colonoscopy revealed a peripheral flat lesion in the anal canal. Since immunohistological examination showed positive for CK20 and negative for GCDFP15, we made a preoperative diagnosis of anal canal cancer with Pagetoid spread. It was diagnosed as cT1bN0M0, cStage Ⅰ by TNM classification, and laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with TpTME was performed. Negative biopsy of the perianal skin was confirmed both preoperation and during the operation. The postoperative course was uneventful, and no urinary dysfunction was observed. The patient was discharged 15 days after the operation. The histopathological diagnosis was negative margin. The patient is alive without recurrence 1 year after the operation. Adenocarcinoma of anal canal with Pagetoid spread is rare, and differentiation from Paget's disease is important for determining treatment policy. By conducting a detailed examination of the extent of tumor progression and using TpTME together, it was possible to perform surgery that both secured the CRM and preserved urinary function.

Abstract
Body weight loss and poor nutritional status are frequently observed after esophageal cancer surgery. The aim of this study was to pilot an investigation on the impact of home enteral tube feeding supplementation (HES) for up to 3 months after esophageal cancer surgery. We retrospectively reviewed consecutive 67 esophageal cancer patients who underwent esophagectomy with gastric tube reconstruction. We started HES from April 2017. The patients were divided into 2 groups. Among 67 patients, 40 patients underwent HES between April 2017 and November 2020 (HES group). Other 27 patients who underwent esophagectomy between January 2012 and March 2017 were not administered HES (C group). Thereafter, multiple factors concerning patient nutritional status at long-term follow-up were evaluated. The baseline characteristics were balanced between the two groups. There were no significant differences in nutritional status scores before esophagectomy. The percentage weight loss was less in the HES group compared with the C group both at 3 months and 1 year after surgery: 7.3% (-7.6 to 15.2), 7.7% (-4 to 13.9) in the HES group and 10.6% (-3.6 to 29.1), 10.8% (-5.8 to 20.0) in C group (P < 0.05, P < 0.05). In the patients with anastomotic stenosis, the percentage weight loss was less in the HES group compared with the C group: 7.2% (2.0-14.9) and 14.6% (6.2-29.1), P < 0.05. HES may improve early weight loss in postesophagectomy patients.

Abstract
Palliative stoma creation for malignant gastrointestinal obstruction improves quality of life, and advances in chemotherapy have resulted in long-term survival after stoma creation. We reviewed early and late complications in 24 patients treated with palliative stoma creation. Results: 14 men(58%)and 10 women(42%)had a median age of 60 years. Twenty-three patients(96%)were able to eat more than a porridge diet postoperatively, and the median The ColoRectal Obstruction Scoring System(CROSS)improved from 1(0-3)to 4(2-4)(p<0.001). Postoperative complications(all Clavien-Dindo grades)were observed in 10 patients(42%), with a longer postoperative hospital stay in the complication group than in the group without complication(median 34 days: 17 days, p=0.026). When divided into long-term survivors and short- term survivors based on a median overall survival of 101 days, more stoma prolapse occurred in the long-term survivors(4 cases 33% vs 0 cases 0%, p=0.028), one of which required repair surgery. Conclusion: Long-term survivors after exploratory stoma creation are more likely to develop a stoma prolapse. Careful surgical manipulation and postoperative support system including stoma care are important.

Abstract
Introduction: Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a serious complication associated with major hepatectomies. An accurate prediction of PHLF is necessary to determine the feasibility of major hepatectomy. This study aimed to assess the association between PHLF and preoperative laboratory and computed tomography (CT) findings.
Methods: Medical records of 65 patients who underwent major hepatectomy and preoperative CT were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated future remnant liver volume evaluation models and remnant liver hemodynamics, which were assessed by arterial enhancement fraction (AEF) by using preoperative CT. Variables, including CT findings, were compared between patients with and without PHLF after major hepatectomy, and the preoperative PHLF predicting nomogram was constructed using multivariate logistic regression.
Results: The PHLF group included 21 patients (32.3%). The AEF was not significantly different between the two groups. In the future remnant liver volume evaluation models, future remnant liver proportion (fRLP) had the highest concordance index (C-index) in the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis (C-index, 0.755). Multivariate analysis of preoperative evaluable factors revealed that alanine aminotransferase levels (p = 0.034), prothrombin time activity (p = 0.021), and fRLP (p = 0.012) were independent predictive factors of PHLF. A nomogram (APART score) was constructed using these three factors, with a receiver operating curve showing a C-index of 0.894. According to the APART score, scores of 51 to 60 indicated moderate risk (40.0%), and scores over 60 indicated a high risk of PHLF (83.3%) (p < 0.001).
Discussion/Conclusion: The APART score may help predict PHLF in patients indicated for major hepatectomies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We investigated how preoperative sarcopenia and perioperative muscle mass changes affect postoperative nutritional parameters in patients undergoing pancreatectomy. METHODS This study included 164 patients undergoing pancreatectomy between January 2011 and October 2018. Skeletal muscle area was measured by computed tomography before and 6 months after surgery. Sarcopenia was defined as the lowest sex-specific quartile, and patients with muscle mass ratios less than -10% were classified into the high-reduction group. We examined the relationship between perioperative muscle mass and postoperative nutritional parameters 6 months after pancreatectomy. RESULTS There were no significant differences in nutritional parameters between the sarcopenia and nonsarcopenia groups at 6 months after surgery. In contrast, albumin (P < 0.001), cholinesterase (P < 0.001), and prognostic nutritional index (P < 0.001) were lower in the high-reduction group. According to each surgical procedure, albumin (P < 0.001), cholinesterase (P = 0.007), and prognostic nutritional index (P < 0.001) were lower in the high-reduction group of pancreaticoduodenectomy. In distal pancreatectomy cases, only cholinesterase (P = 0.005) was lower. CONCLUSIONS Postoperative nutritional parameters were correlated with muscle mass ratios but not with preoperative sarcopenia in patients undergoing pancreatectomy. Improvement and maintenance of perioperative muscle mass are important to maintain good nutritional parameters.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a common malignancy. While inflammation-related biomarkers influence patient survival after resection, it has not been known whether postoperative inflammations affect the survival of PDAC patients or not. METHODS It was investigated whether the universal biomarkers on postoperative day (POD) 7 affect the survival of PDAC patients in the retrospective view, and univariate and multivariate analyses were performed via the Cox regression method. RESULTS Overall, 108 consecutive patients underwent resection; 98 (90.7%) had T3 disease and 73 (67.6%) had lymph node metastases. Thirty-four patients (31.5%) experienced postoperative complications. Compared with preoperative values, the white blood cell count and C-reactive protein (CRP) level on POD 7 were significantly elevated (P < .001 for both); conversely, the lymphocyte count was significantly reduced (P < .001). Among 108 patients, 72 received adjuvant chemotherapy. The median overall survival was 21.0 months; the 5-year survival rate was 22.3%. On multivariate analysis, receiving adjuvant chemotherapy and low CRP levels on POD 7 (<7.6 mg/dL) were prognosticators of better survival. However, the CD classification was not a prognosticator of survival after resection. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative low CRP levels on POD 7 were prognosticators of better survival of PDAC patients after resection. Surgeons should be aware of managing postoperative infections because a high postoperative CRP level is related with unfavorable survival.

Abstract
Introduction Recently, accelerometers have received much attention around the world. This study examined whether preoperative physical activity level measured by an accelerometer can be a useful predictor of post-hepatectomy complications. Methods Between December 2016 and December 2020, the physical activity levels of 185 patients were measured using an accelerometer 3 days before hepatectomy and from postoperative day 1 to 7. The patients without postoperative complications (n=153) and those with postoperative complications (n=32) were compared using either the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test for nominal variables; continuous variables were analyzed using either Student's t-test or Mann-Whitney U test. Differences were considered statistically significant when p-value was <0.05. Risk factors for postoperative complications following hepatectomy were also investigated. Results The number of patients with an anatomical resection was significantly higher in patients with postoperative complications (p=0.001). Furthermore, laparoscopic hepatectomy was performed in 65.4% of patients without postoperative complications and in 25.0% of those with postoperative complications; the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). The average preoperative physical activity level was 150.6 kcal/day in patients without postoperative complications and 84.5 kcal/day in those with postoperative complications (p=0.001). Multivariate analysis identified blood loss, operative time, and preoperative physical activity level as independent risk factors for postoperative complications. Discussion/Conclusion Patients with lower preoperative physical activity levels are at a high risk of developing postoperative complications after hepatectomy. Hence, preoperative physical activity level measurement may be useful in predicting post-hepatectomy complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the impact of postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications (PICs) on survival after surgery for gastric cancer. METHODS A total of 152 patients who underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer were included. The effect of clinicopathological features and PICs on recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were investigated. RESULTS The median age was 67 years. The pathological stage was stage I (61), II (40), and III (51). Thirty-two patients (21.1%) had PICs: 9, pancreatic fistula; 14, anastomotic leakage; and 17, intra-abdominal abscess. The five-year RFS and OS rates were significantly lower in patients with PICs than in those without PICs (63.4 vs. 85.6%; p < 0.01 and 56.4 vs. 80.3%; p < 0.01, respectively). In multivariate analysis, intraoperative blood loss was an independent prognostic factor for PICs. CONCLUSIONS Patients with PICs had worse clinical outcomes. Reducing intraoperative bleeding may improve the prognosis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dropped gallstones during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) sometimes induce postoperative infectious complications. However, pleural empyema rarely occurs as a complication of LC. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with right pleural empyema. She previously underwent LC for acute gangrenous cholecystitis 11 months ago. The operative report revealed iatrogenic gallbladder perforation and stone spillage. The bacterial culture of the gallbladder bile was positive for Escherichia coli. Chest and abdominal computed tomography revealed right pleural effusion, perihepatic fluid collection, and multiple small radiopaque density masses. Although ultrasound-guided transthoracic drainage was performed, the drainage was incomplete, and systemic inflammatory reaction persisted. Consequently, thoracotomy and laparotomy with gallstone retrieval were performed, and the patient recovered completely. The patient has remained well without complications after 14 months of follow-up. CONCLUSIONS We report a rare case of pleural empyema caused by dropped gallstones after LC. This case emphasized the importance of completely retrieving the dropped gallstones to prevent late infectious complications after LC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the effect of early administration of delayed-release high-titer pancrelipase. METHODS The medical records of 120 patients who had undergone pancreatectomy with computed tomography (CT) before and 6 months after surgery were retrospectively reviewed. Delayed-release high-titer pancrelipase were administered daily starting on postoperative day 3, which was defined as the EP group. The postoperative nutritional status and CT attenuation values of the liver were compared between the EP and control groups. RESULTS Thirty-three patients (28%) were categorized into the EP group. With regard to the postoperative nutritional status 6 months after surgery, the body mass index, total lymphocyte count, and Onodera's prognostic nutritional index were higher, and controlling nutritional status score was lower in the EP group than that in the control group. The CT attenuation values of the liver were not significantly different. After propensity score matching analysis, body mass index (20.7 vs 19.2, P = 0.049) and Onodera's prognostic nutritional index (47.9 vs 44.2, P = 0.045) were significantly higher, and controlling nutritional status score was significantly lower in the EP group than that in the control group (1 vs 3, P = 0.046). CONCLUSIONS The early administration of pancrelipase after pancreatectomy improved nutritional status after pancreatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL), a type of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, rarely involves the stomach as the primary organ. Advanced MEITL, for which there is currently no established treatment, causes gastrointestinal perforations and is characterized by a poor response to chemotherapy. CASE PRESENTATION A 69-year-old man had undergone chemotherapy for MEITL of the whole stomach. He subsequently developed acute abdominal pain, and computed tomography revealed a giant perforation in the anterior gastric wall adjacent to the lateral segment of the liver. The perforation was rescued through closure with liver-covering sutures. Thereafter, a total gastrectomy and a left hepatectomy were performed and he recovered enough to tolerate oral intake. However, despite ongoing chemotherapy, the patient died 83 days after the gastric perforation (10 months after being diagnosed with the lymphoma) owing to rapid progression of the MEITL. CONCLUSION In the rare case of a giant gastric perforation after chemotherapy for gastric MEITL, rescue is possible through liver-covering sutures followed by a total gastrectomy and lateral hepatectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This research aimed to determine whether patterns of temporal changes in activity levels can indicate postoperative complications following hepatectomy. METHODS Between December 2016 and December 2019, 147 patients wore an accelerometer to measure their physical activity levels after hepatectomy until postoperative day 7. Patterns of changes in activity levels were categorized as follows: upward slope type (n = 88), wherein activity levels gradually increased; bell curve type (n = 13), wherein activity levels initially increased but subsequently decreased; and flat type (n = 46), wherein there was no apparent increase in activity levels. Patient characteristics and postoperative complications were compared for each group. RESULTS Postoperative complications occurred in 4.5% of patients in the upward slope group, in 76.9% in the bell curve group, and in 65.2% in the flat group (p < 0.001). Surgical site infections (SSI), refractory pleural effusion, and ascites were more common in the bell curve group, while pneumonia was only observed in the flat group. CONCLUSION SSI, pleural effusion, and ascites should be considered when previously increasing activity levels decline during the postoperative period. In addition, there is a high risk of SSI and pneumonia when activity levels do not increase at all after surgery.

Abstract
A 20-year-old man presenting with abdominal pain and distension from 3 months ago was admitted to our hospital. Colonoscopy showed a type 1 tumor in the transverse colon. The biopsy was moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Abdominal enhanced CT revealed intussusception associated with the tumor. After non-invasive reduction of intussusception was performed, a full-body examination revealed no findings suggestive of distant metastases or other Lynch syndrome- related tumors. We performed laparoscopic right hemicolectomy. Lynch syndrome was suspected based on his family history, MMR protein immunohistochemistry and MSI-High, but genetic testing was rejected due to cost reasons. If young people have chronic abdominal symptoms and a family history of suspected hereditary colorectal cancer, a close examination of colon cancer should be performed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy is a common strategy for treating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This study aimed to assess the association between the therapeutic response in PDAC and tumor blood circulation. METHODS The medical records of patients who underwent chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy prior to pancreatectomy for PDAC were reviewed. Of these, patient data that included three-phase contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) findings before treatments were used in this study. We evaluated the estimated tumor blood flow (eTBF) using CECT. According to the therapeutic histopathological response defined by the Evans classification, patients were divided into poor (grade I/IIa) and good (grade IIb/III/IV) responder groups. The variables, including eTBF, were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Thirty patients were enrolled in this study. Of these, 13 (43.3%) (grade IIB/III/IV: 8/4/1 patients) were categorized into the good responder group and 17 patients (56.7%) (grade I/IIA: 4/13 patients) were categorized into the poor responder group. eTBF was significantly higher in the good responder group (0.39 s-1 vs. 0.32 s-1, p = 0.007). An eTBF ≥ 0.36 s-1 was found to be an independent predictive factor for the destruction of over 50% of tumor cells (p = 0.036; odds ratio, 9.71; 95% confidence interval, 1.16-81.30). CONCLUSIONS eTBF can be used to predict the therapeutic histopathological response in PDAC prior to treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the most frequent complication of abdominal surgery. Using triclosan-coated sutures for abdominal wall closure reportedly reduces the incidence of SSIs. However, the SSI incidence has not been compared between the use of triclosan-coated multifilament and triclosan-coated monofilament sutures. We, therefore, compared the incidence of incisional SSIs between the use of triclosan-coated polyglactin 910 sutures (Vicryl Plus) and triclosan-coated polydioxanone sutures (PDS Plus). METHODS This observational cohort study was conducted on 318 consecutive patients who underwent elective colorectal cancer surgery at the Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital from January 2015 to December 2018. Based on the suture type for abdominal wall closure, 151 patients were enrolled in the PDS Plus group, and 167 were enrolled in the Vicryl Plus group. RESULTS The two suture groups were not significantly different in terms of risk factors for SSIs. Other postoperative complications also did not differ markedly between the two groups. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, the presence of stoma was the only independent risk factor for incisional SSIs. CONCLUSION The incidence of incisional SSIs was unaffected by the type of triclosan-coated sutures. The presence of stoma was an independent risk factor for incisional SSIs.

Abstract
Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma is a rare tumor of the pancreas, and patients with such tumors rarely have a pathological complete response to treatment. Herein, we present a case involving a 48-year-old woman with a pancreatic tail mass. The pancreatic mass was connected to splenic and portal vein thrombosis. Distal pancreatectomy and removal of portal vein tumor thrombosis were performed. Ten months after surgery, multiple liver metastases and local recurrence in the pancreatic bed were detected, and chemotherapy was administered through the administration of a regimen containing both cisplatin and irinotecan. After seven courses of the cisplatin-plus-irinotecan regimen had been administered, computed tomography revealed that the patient had a partial response to treatment. Radical resection of multiple liver metastases and the locally recurrent tumor was performed. Pathological examination did not reveal the presence of carcinoma in any of the resected specimens. Thus, this case involves a pathological complete response in a patient with metastatic pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma who received a regimen containing both cisplatin and irinotecan. Our findings reveal that the administration of the cisplatin-plus-irinotecan regimen may be an option for the management of such tumors.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined whether abdominal plain computed tomography (CT) can predict surgical difficulty in acute cholecystitis. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 84 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis between January 2015 and December 2018. We distinguished three degrees of surgical difficulty based on the operative time and blood loss: difficult, both ≥120 minutes and ≥ 100 mL, respectively (n = 27); moderate, either ≥120 minutes or ≥ 100 mL, respectively (n = 30); and easy, both <120 minutes and < 100 mL, respectively (n = 27). We calculated the attenuation around the gallbladder on CT before surgery and compared the values among the three groups. RESULTS Mean age, albumin levels, C-reactive protein levels, and the CT attenuation around the gallbladder (P < .001) were significantly different between groups. The surgical difficulty was unrelated to the timing of surgery. The postoperative complications were more frequent in operations more than 72 hours after disease onset (P = .04) and with CT attenuation around the gallbladder of ≥1.4 (P = .036). CONCLUSION High attenuation around the gallbladder on plain CT predicted a high surgical difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We recommend measuring the CT attenuation around the gallbladder in patients with acute cholecystitis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Microbiomes play a vital role in the development and progression of cancer. The clinical status, including prognosis, genetic mutations, and sensitivity to chemotherapy, differs depending on the location of colorectal cancer (CRC); however, the association between gut microbiota and the location of CRC is not entirely understood. This study was conducted to evaluate the differences in the gut microbiota in patients with CRC according to the location of the tumor. METHODS Fifty-six patients who underwent surgery for CRC between August 2018 and November 2019 were included in the study. Three patients who had received neoadjuvant therapy or antibiotic treatment within 1 month before surgery were excluded. The metagenomes of microbiota in preoperative feces were assessed using the V3-V4 region of 16s rRNA amplicon sequences. RESULTS The beta diversity of the Bray-Curtis distance was significantly higher in left-sided than in right-sided CRC. Fusobacterium predominated in left-sided CRC according to the linear discriminant analysis effect size method. Blautia, Eryspelotrichales, Holdemanella, Faecalibacterium, Subdoligranulum, and Dorea constituted the dominant intestinal flora in right-sided CRC. Pathway analysis revealed that L-lysine fermentation and cob(II)yrinate a,c-diamide biosynthesis I were predominant in left-sided CRC. DISCUSSION This study demonstrated that fecal microbiota in left-sided CRC constitutionally and functionally differ from those in right-side CRC. These results will help to elucidate the biological differences according to tumor location and develop treatments for human CRC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer cells in intraoperative peritoneal washings (PW) indicate increased peritoneal recurrence. Detection of CEA or CK20 genes indicates poor prognosis. We assessed long-term prognosis of patients with amplification of cancer-related genes in PW obtained intraoperatively during curative gastric cancer surgery. METHODS PW was collected before and immediately after curative gastrectomy. CEA, CK20, TFF1, MUC2, and FABP1-mRNA were selected as marker genes for reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Peritoneal recurrence-free survival (PRFS) and overall survival (OS) after >7-year follow-up were examined using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Of 138 patients who underwent gastrectomy with negative cytological findings at laparotomy, 80 patients showed negative cancer-related gene amplification in preoperative PW. Fifty-eight patients were excluded due to positive gene amplification, which suggested presence of preoperative peritoneal cancer cells. The 80 patients had mRNA amplification in PW after surgery. Amplification of multiple and single cancer-related marker genes was observed in 38 and 21 patients; 21 cases had marker-negative results. Five-year PRFS was 69.1%, 95.2%, and 100% in multi-marker-positive, single marker-positive, and marker-negative cases, respectively. Multi-marker-positive patients had significantly worse PRFS than the other groups (p < 0.05). Multivariate analysis in the Cox proportional hazards model identified multi-marker-positivity as an independent prognostic factor for PRFS (hazard ratio, 7.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.07-62.63; p = 0.046), and multi-marker-positive patients had significantly worse OS than other groups (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Multi-marker cancer-related gene amplification in PW is associated with worse prognosis in PRFS and OS even after a long follow-up; PRFS can be stratified by the number of genes amplified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a late complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). However, this complication is difficult to predict preoperatively. This study aimed to assess the association between NAFLD and preoperative computed tomography (CT) findings. METHODS Medical records of 112 patients who had undergone PD and had CT scans preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated several CT findings, including the CT attenuation value of the remnant pancreas, remnant pancreatic volume (RPV), and the estimated functional remnant pancreatic volume (eFRPV) on preoperative CT. The variables, including the CT findings and histopathological findings, were compared between the patients with and without NAFLD after PD. RESULTS The NAFLD group included 21 patients (18.8%). The CT attenuation value of the remnant pancreas was correlated with the pancreatic acinar cell density (r = 0.537), and was lower in the NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group (p = 0.007). The eFRPV was lower in the NAFLD group than in the non-NAFLD group (p = 0.002). An eFRPV ≤47 mL·HU was an independent predictive factor for NAFLD (p = 0.007; odds ratio: 6.73; 95% confidence interval: 1.70-26.70). CONCLUSION The eFRPV can be used to preoperatively predict NAFLD after PD.

Abstract
AIM Self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) placement for obstructive colon cancer is widely performed as a bridge to surgery (BTS) procedure before resection. This study aimed to investigate the surgical and oncological results of laparoscopic elective surgery with or without SEMS placement to assess the efficacy of SEMS placement as a BTS. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed consecutive patients with stage II, III, and IV left-sided colon cancer who underwent elective laparoscopic resection between 2013 and 2019. All patients were divided into two groups: with and without SEMS placement. RESULTS The SEMS group included 24 patients, whereas the non-SEMS group included 86 patients. The serum hemoglobin and albumin levels were lower (P = .049, P = .03), and the serum leukocyte and C-reactive protein levels were higher (P < .0001, P = .022) in the SEMS group. The tumor diameter and tumor circumferential rate were higher in the SEMS group (both P < .0001). No significant differences were observed in operation time, blood loss, postoperative complications, or postoperative hospital stay. After 1:1 propensity score matching, 15 patients in the SEMS group were compared with 15 patients in the non-SEMS group. The 3-year overall survival rates of the SEMS and non-SEMS groups were 87.5% and 88.9%, respectively (P = .97). The 3-year recurrence-free survival rates of the SEMS and non-SEMS groups were 58.2% and 81.7%, respectively (P = .233). No significant difference was found in the sites of recurrence. CONCLUSION The perioperative and long-term outcomes of SEMS placement as a BTS before laparoscopic resection could be acceptable compared with other elective laparoscopic operations without SEMS placement.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant tumors with rhabdoid features are extremely rare. They can occur in various organs, including the gastrointestinal tract, with common clinical features of high malignancy and poor prognosis. CASE PRESENTATION A 41-year-old man visited our hospital complaining of lower abdominal pain and fever. Computed tomography (CT) revealed two wall-thickening lesions in the rectum and sigmoid colon, with the latter invading the small intestine and abdominal wall. Lymph nodes were swollen in the sigmoid mesocolon and at the roots of the inferior mesenteric artery. Colonoscopy revealed a circular type 3 lesion in the sigmoid colon and a semicircular type 2 lesion in the rectum. Biopsies of the sigmoid colon and rectum lesions revealed poorly and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma cells, respectively. The sigmoid colon, rectum, invaded small intestine, and abdominal wall were resected; lymph node dissection was also performed. Histopathological finding of the sigmoid colon lesion revealed that the tumor cells had poor connectivity with each other, and each cell had eosinophilic cytoplasm and a polymorphic nucleus. These characteristics are termed rhabdoid features, because the morphology of these cells is similar to that of rhabdomyosarcoma tumor cells. Immunohistochemical examination showed that the tumor cells were positive for both epithelial (cytokeratin AE1/AE3) and mesenchymal cell markers (vimentin); however, they were negative for integrase interactor 1 (INI1). Therefore, the sigmoid colorectal cancer was diagnosed as an INI1-negative undifferentiated carcinoma with rhabdoid features. The patient continued to experience high fever after surgery; thus, we performed an abdominal CT scan that revealed cystic lesions in the liver 4 days after surgery. These were absent in the positron emission tomography (PET)-CT scan performed 14 days before surgery. These tumors grew rapidly, and fine needle aspiration cytology revealed that they were undifferentiated carcinomas compatible with metastatic lesions from the undifferentiated carcinoma with rhabdoid features from the sigmoid colon. Chemotherapy was administered but was not effective. The patient died 60 days after surgery. CONCLUSIONS INI1-negative colorectal undifferentiated carcinomas with rhabdoid features are extremely rare, have high histological malignancy, and a poor prognosis. Chemotherapy is not effective. Effective systemic therapy is desired.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to clarify the frequency and risk factors of intercurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing major curative gastric cancer surgery. METHODS This prospective, multicenter, observational study included patients with gastric cancer who underwent radical gastrectomy at 5 hospitals between June 2016 and May 2018. Patients who were preoperatively administered anticoagulants were excluded. RESULTS A total of 126 patients were eligible to participate. VTE occurred within 9 days postoperatively in 5 cases (4.0%; 2 symptomatic and 3 asymptomatic). Postoperative day (POD) 1 plasma D-dimer and soluble fibrin (SF) levels were significantly higher in the VTE group than in the non-VTE group. Receiver-operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis indicated a statistically significant ability of POD 1 D-dimer and SF levels to predict postoperative VTE development after gastrectomy; this finding was reflected by an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.97 (95% CI 0.92-1.0) and 0.87 (95% CI 0.74-1.0), respectively. Cutoff values of D-dimer (24.6 µg/mL) and SF (64.1 µg/mL) were determined. Intraoperative blood transfusion (odds ratio [OR] 7.86), POD 1 D-dimer ≥24.6 µg/mL (OR 17.35), and POD 1 SF ≥64.1 µg/mL (OR 19.5) were independent predictive factors for postoperative VTE (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION VTE occurred in 4.0% patients (1.6% symptomatic and 2.4% asymptomatic) after gastric cancer surgery; however, with an early diagnosis and anticoagulant therapy, no patients experienced progression. Careful observation of patients with a high risk for VTE, including intraoperative blood transfusion and high POD 1 D-dimer or SF levels, would contribute to the early detection of VTE.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pseudoaneurysm (PA) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a harmful complication due to postoperative pancreatic fistula. However, the preventive method for PA is unclear. This study aimed to assess the risk factors for PA after PD and to evaluate the clinical features of patients with PA. METHODS Medical records of 54 patients who underwent PD and developed clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) were retrospectively reviewed. We evaluated postoperative computed tomography (CT) findings, including the perianastomotic fluid collection (PFC) location on postoperative day 4. Perioperative findings and postoperative CT findings were compared between patients with and without PA after PD. RESULTS The PA group included nine patients (17%). The median postoperative day of diagnosis of PA was 17 (range, 7-33). The PA locations were the gastroduodenal artery stump (n = 3), dorsal pancreatic artery (DPA) stump from the common hepatic artery (n = 4), DPA stump from the replaced right hepatic artery (n = 1), and inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery stump (n = 1). The prevalence of falciform ligament wrap to the hepatic artery was lower (33% vs. 78%, p = 0.014) and superior PFC prevalence was higher (100% vs. 58%, p = 0.019) in the PA group than in the non-PA group. Superior PFC reached the dorsal part of the caudate lobe of the liver in all patients with PA. Furthermore, all PAs occurred at the arteries that could not be wrapped by the falciform ligament. CONCLUSION Prevention of superior PFC and falciform ligament wrapping may reduce PA occurrence after PD with clinically relevant POPF.

Abstract
A 60s female with complaint of epigastric discomfort revealed 0-Ⅱb lesion in gastric fornix on upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and exhibited signet-ring cell carcinoma on histopathologic examination of biopsy specimens. A thoracoabdominal CT scan suggested tumors in right breast and left lung, and biopsy revealed invasive lobular carcinoma and primary lung adenocarcinoma, respectively. As results of multidisciplinary discussion of the treatment strategy for triple cancers, it was decided to perform robotic proximal gastrectomy, D1+ lymph node dissection, and esophagogastrostomy. The gastric lesion was diagnosed as gastric metastasis of breast cancer(T2N1M1, Stage Ⅳ)because immunohistochemical staining findings showed ER(+), GCDFP-15(+), and GATA-3(+). Two months later, she underwent the left upper lobectomy, and was diagnosed with lung acinar adenocarcinoma(pT2N0M0, pStage ⅠB). Six months after gastrectomy, she is currently on hormone therapy with aromatase inhibitors for breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Procalcitonin (PCT) is a well-known marker for bacterial infection; however, the clinical significance of PCT in the long-term prognosis after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery remains unclear. METHODS This is a retrospective review of 277 patients that underwent CRC surgery to investigate the relationship between preoperative PCT, clinicopathological condition, cancer-specific overall survival (OS), and relapse-free survival (RFS). RESULTS Median follow-up interval was 5.0 years in all patients. Thirty-six patients developed recurrence, and 46 patients died due to recurrences or metastases of CRC. Preoperative PCT levels were highest in Stage IV patients. The cancer-specific OS in patients with Stage IV/PCT ≤0.05 ng/mL was significantly higher than those with Stage IV/PCT >0.05 ng/mL (3 years survival; 42.3 vs. 14.3%, p = 0.0413). On multivariate analysis, gender, TNM classification, and PCT were identified as significant risk factors for cancer-specific OS in patients with Stage I-III CRC. The cancer-specific OS rate of these patients with PCT ≥0.08 ng/mL, compared with PCT <0.08 ng/mL, was significantly decreased (5 years survival; 59.1 vs. 92.7%, p < 0.0001). TNM classification was finally identified as an independent risk factor for cancer-specific RFS in these patients by multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION High preoperative PCT values in CRC patients appeared to be associated with poor OS but not RFS following surgical treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a novel disease concept of unknown cause that is characterized by abundant infiltration of IgG4-positive cells, mass-forming lesions, and elevated serum IgG4 levels. The infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells and lymphocytes causes swelling, inflammation, fibrosis, and obliterative phlebitis in multiple organs. On the other hand, IgG4-RD occurring in the ureters has rarely been reported. To our knowledge, this is the first report of laparoscopic partial ureteral resection for IgG4-related focal retroperitoneal fibrosis in a ureter with suspected colon cancer recurrence. CASE PRESENTATION A 72-year-old man with a history of sigmoid colon cancer visited Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital for regular follow-up in December 2019. Enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a mass involving the left ureter. Furthermore, fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography showed significant accumulation of fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the same region. Due to the possibility of colon cancer recurrence, a laparoscopic excisional biopsy with partial ureteral resection was performed. Histologically, IgG4-positive plasma cell infiltration exceeding 10 cells per high-power field and a high ratio of IgG4-positive/IgG-positive cells exceeding 40% were observed. The postoperative serum IgG4 level was 384 mg/dL. With the application of these findings to the diagnostic algorithm in the comprehensive diagnostic criteria for IgG4-RD, the mass-forming lesion was diagnosed as definitive IgG4-related focal retroperitoneal fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS IgG4-RD should be considered in the differential diagnosis of retroperitoneal lesions. Moreover, laparoscopic surgery may be useful for making the diagnosis in difficult-to-biopsy cases.

Abstract
Background Recently, robotic surgery has become more common as a minimally invasive treatment for gastric cancer (GC) and rectal cancer (RC). Herein, we report successful simultaneous robotic gastrectomy and low anterior resection in a patient with advanced GC and RC. Case presentation A 76-year-old woman who presented with bloody stool was found to have advanced GC with lymph node metastases and advanced RC. Simultaneous robotic distal gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection and Billroth I reconstruction and low anterior resection with D3 lymph node dissection were performed. Preoperatively, multidisciplinary medical staff discussed the case in detail and conducted a simulation with the robot, operating room, and patient. The total operative time was 648 min (console time, 520 min), and the estimated blood loss was small. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 10 without any adverse events. In this case, careful simulation of the patient cart setting and planning of the best port layout resulted in a successful surgical outcome despite this being our first simultaneous total robotic surgery for advanced GC and RC. Conclusions Simultaneous robotic surgery for advanced GC and RC may be technically feasible and could provide an option for future minimally invasive treatment.

Abstract
Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a relatively rare disease, with a high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. We encountered 8 patients with retroperitoneal liposarcoma who underwent surgery in Shiga University of Medical Science Hospital. We often encounter elderly male patients without symptoms. Of the 8 patients, 6 received extensive resection that included the surrounding organs or tissues; however, 3 patients demonstrated positive surgical margins, which resulted in liposarcoma recurrence. Despite the additional resection in the 3 recurrent cases, all the patients had a tumor relapse. One patient with an unresectable tumor received chemotherapy. The other patients received surgical treatment 3 times. One patient developed an unresectable relapse after receiving chemotherapy. Another patient attained long-term survival by adjuvant chemoradiotherapy combined with 3 surgeries. Aggressive surgical resection to achieve a negative surgical margin and careful postoperative follow-up seem important for the treatment of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. This study suggests that postoperative adjuvant therapy may contribute to the improvement of prognosis. Further findings must be accumulated to clarify the significance of postoperative adjuvant therapies in the future.

Abstract
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has been proven effective in treating obesity-associated type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, reports of the effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on glucose metabolism in Japanese obese patients with T2DM are rare. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on glucose tolerance in Japanese obese patients with T2DM, and to analyze factors influencing diabetes remission after surgery. This was a retrospective analysis of data for 24 consecutive patients with T2DM who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. We investigated weight loss and its impact on T2DM 1 year postoperatively. We also compared baseline characteristics and postoperative factors between patients who achieved diabetes remission and patients without remission. Mean body weight loss and percent total weight loss were 23.9 kg and 23.3%, respectively. Mean hemoglobin A1c levels dropped from 7.3 ± 0.3% to 6.1 ± 0.2%, and 18 patients (75%) achieved diabetes remission 1 year postoperatively. Patients achieving remission had significantly lower hemoglobin A1c levels (p = 0.026), higher fasting C-peptide values (p < 0.001), shorter diabetes duration (p < 0.001), lower insulin requirement (p = 0.002), and higher area under the insulin response curve (p < 0.001) and insulinogenic index (p < 0.001) during oral glucose tolerance testing. In conclusion, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is an effective treatment for Japanese obese patients with T2DM. Preserving insulin secretion is the major determinant of diabetes remission.

Abstract
Background Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis after colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery is internationally recommended for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prevention. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the risk factors of postoperative bleeding after elective surgery for patients with primary CRC receiving pharmacological thromboprophylaxis of fondaparinux or enoxaparin. Methods We experienced consecutive 266 patients who underwent elective surgery for CRC during the study period. Finally, the medical records of 218 patients with CRC administrated fondaparinux or enoxaparin following surgery were retrospectively reviewed to evaluate symptomatic VTE until 28 days and postoperative bleeding comparing perioperative D-dimer levels. Results The significant differences in TNM classification staging and type of thromboprophylaxis were observed between postoperative bleeding-negative and bleeding-positive group. There was no statistical significance among other backgrounds of patients between the two groups. One case (0.46%) of symptomatic VTE and total 11 cases (5%) of postoperative bleeding were observed. In the univariate analysis, fondaparinux thromboprophylaxis and early disease-stage CRC (stages 0 and I) were associated with risk for postoperative bleeding. Multivariate analysis revealed that fondaparinux thromboprophylaxis was identified as an independent risk factor of postoperative bleeding. Moreover, preoperative levels of D-dimer in patients with stage IV CRC were significantly higher than those with the other stages. The significant elevation in preoperative D-dimer was also observed in patients with stage II CRC compared to those with stage I CRC. Perioperative levels of D-dimer in patients with advanced disease-stage CRC (stages II, III, and IV) were significantly higher than those in patients with early disease-stage CRC. Conclusions Fondaparinux administration and early disease-stage CRC appeared to be risk factors for postoperative bleeding in patients with pharmacological thromboprophylaxis undergoing surgical treatment for CRC. Patients’ hypercoagulative condition depending on disease progression of CRC might be related to the occurrence of postoperative bleeding following CRC surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Collagenous colitis (CC) is a clinicopathologic syndrome characterized by chronic watery diarrhea and distinctive histopathologic features. Spontaneous perforation of CC is extremely rare, because CC is usually managed medically, and the need for surgical intervention is rare. We report a surgical case of spontaneous colonic perforation of CC with acute abdomen disease. CASE PRESENTATION A 77-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for abdominal pain and watery diarrhea. Computed tomography (CT) showed a thickened bowel wall with edema involving free air around the splenic flexure of the colon. Therefore, we performed emergency surgery with a diagnosis of colonic perforation. Intraoperative findings revealed colonic necrosis at the splenic flexure, so we performed a left hemicolectomy. Histopathological examination revealed typical findings of CC, a thick subepithelial collagenous band and deep ulcers with perforation. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on the 28th postoperative day. After changing the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) from lansoprazole (LPZ) to rabeprazole (RPZ), he has not complained of diarrhea symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Although spontaneous perforation is a rare complication of CC, it is possible to be diagnosed by symptom of acute abdomen disease. This is the seventh case of spontaneous colonic perforation of CC worldwide.

Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a serious complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy. However, the criteria for prompting drainage have not been clarified yet. We evaluated 80 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between 2011 and 2016. Clinically relevant POPF (International Study Group of Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula grade B or C) was evaluated on the basis of the following parameters: changes in pancreatic thickness between preoperation and postoperative day (POD) 4 identified via enhanced CT, drain amylase level, laboratory data, and operative factors. POPF occurred in 21 patients (26.3%). The median change in pancreatic thickness before and after operation was 8.33 mm in the POPF-positive group, which was significantly larger than that in the POPF-negative group (3.79 mm, P <0.001). In addition, operation time, pancreatic texture, main pancreatic duct diameter, WBC count, C-reactive protein level, and drain amylase level demonstrated significant differences between the groups. In the multivariate analysis, operation time, C-reactive protein level on POD 3, drain amylase level on POD 1, and the change in pancreatic thickness before and after operation were independent risk factors of POPF. The drastic change in pancreatic thickness before and after operation predicted POPF in this study. This might be one of the factors that determine the requirement for drainage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We evaluated the effectiveness of palliative stomas created to resolve symptoms of bowel obstruction. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated patient characteristics and outcomes in 16 cases of palliative enterostomy performed to resolve malignant bowel obstruction. RESULTS The median age of the patients was 64 years, and the most common original cancer was colorectal cancer(11 cases, 69%). Oral intake was recovered in 15 patients after the surgery(94%), and the colorectal obstruction scoring system(CROSS)score improved from 2 to 4. Postoperative complications(Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ or higher)were observed in 8 cases(50%), in which serum albumin levels were less than 3.5 g/dL(p=0.077), resulting in longer hospital stays(p=0.041). The median overall survival time was 107 days, and longer survival time was achieved in patients aged younger than 70 years, with CA19-9 levels C37.7 U/mL and postoperative CROSS score of 4, who were administered postoperative chemotherapy. The chemotherapy was feasible after surgery when CROSS scores improved to 4(p=0.019). CONCLUSION Palliative stomas contributed to the improvement in oral intake of patients with terminal cancer. This improvement may allow patients to receive postoperative chemotherapy, which leads to longer survival times.

Abstract
An 80s man presenting with general malaise and anorexia was referred for treatment of abdominal tumor. Abdominal contrast-enhanced CT revealed a tumor in the left renal cavity. The inside of the tumor coexisted with a fat component and a solid component having a contrast effect. In addition, 2 solid tumors were found to be in contact with the stomach, away from the primary lesion. Based on these findings, retroperitoneal liposarcoma with intraperitoneal metastases was diagnosed. The patient underwent excision of the retroperitoneal tumor and local gastrectomy. The size of the main tumor was 21×18 cm, and the weight was 2.0 kg. Histopathology of the resected specimen showed dedifferentiated liposarcoma and its metastases. The resected margin of the excised tumor was negative. Liposarcoma has a high local recurrence rate, and the status of a resected margin of the tumor is an important factor for prognosis. Here, we report a case of dedifferentiated liposarcoma with metastatic lesions that could be completely resected.

Abstract
Recently, accelerometers measuring physical activity level have been available to the public. In the present study, it was examined whether the accelerometer could evaluate postoperative outcomes for 12 patients subjected to hepatic resection from August-November 2016. The association was evaluated between the changing pattern of activity level until the postoperative day (POD) 7 and the occurrence of postoperative complications. The median age of patients was 79 years (range, 58-85). Postoperative complications were identified in 6 patients. The activity level in patients with complications was low from POD 1 and was significantly lower than patients without complications following POD 6. The changing pattern of activity level with all included patients could be divided into the following 3 types: Increase type, bell curve type and flat type. Patients without complications exhibited an accelerated increase of postoperative activity level, categorized as increase type. Bell curve type and flat type demonstrated delay of recovery in postoperative activity levels, and were suggested to be associated with the occurrence of postoperative complications. These findings may provide rationale for larger sample studies to evaluate whether physical activity level measured via accelerometer may be a surrogate marker for postoperative complications.

Abstract
Lymphadenectomy with gastrectomy is considered a curative surgical treatment for gastric cancer. Periarterial connective tissue-preserving lymphadenectomy has become a common procedure following developments in laparoscopic surgery. However, the presence of cancer cells in the periarterial tissue, including neural invasion, has not been examined. In the present study, the periarterial tissues from the vessel roots of the left gastric artery (LGA) and right gastroepiploic artery (RGEA) after gastrectomy were evaluated for the presence of cancer cells. The study included 28 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer. The vessel roots of the RGEA and LGA were obtained from surgically resected specimens and examined by two independent pathologists to determine the presence of cancer cells in the periarterial tissues. The collected specimens included 23 RGEA roots and 26 LGA roots from 28 patients. In 8 cases of early gastric cancer, no cancer cells were indicated in the periarterial tissues. By contrast, cancer cells, including neural invasion in 2 cases, were identified in the periarterial tissues from the roots of examined gastric arteries in 3/20 (15%) cases of advanced gastric cancer. Notably, all 3 cases featured multiple regional lymph node (LN) metastases. Cancer cells were detected in the perivascular tissue of the major gastric arteries from cases with advanced gastric cancer with LN metastases, suggesting the requirement for oncologic evaluation to ensure adequate vascular tissue margins and an adequate periarterial layer during lymphadenectomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To classify the shape of the remnant stomach after Billroth-I (B-I) reconstruction and evaluate the relationship between the shape of the remnant stomach and the postoperative clinical outcomes. METHODS One hundred and ninety-five consecutive patients with gastric cancer underwent distal gastrectomy with B-I reconstruction between May 2006 and October 2014. We retrospectively reviewed their medical records and radiological findings. Finally, the shapes of the remnant stomach of 150 patients were classified as either straight type (type A) or stagnant type (type B). The clinical outcomes were compared with respect to the types of remnant stomach. RESULTS The incidence of anastomotic leakage was significantly higher in the type A group than in the type B group (9.4 vs. 1.5%, p = 0.044). The body weight change ratio after surgery was significantly lower in the type B group than in the type A group [p = 0.0068, two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA)], while the serum albumin levels showed marginally significant improvement in the type B group compared with the type A group (p = 0.0542, two-way repeated measures ANOVA). CONCLUSION The shape of the remnant stomach after distal gastrectomy with B-I reconstruction might influence the degree of anastomotic leakage and long-term nutritional status.

Abstract
It is hard to determine treatment strategy for radiation induced carcinoma, because radiation cause fibrosis to adjacent organ.The patient was in the 70's, who underwent 70 Gy radiation therapy for prostate cancer 5 years ago.He visited hospital because of fecal occult blood.Endoscopic examination revealed laterally spreading tumor(LST)in rectal front wall, and he referred to our hospital in purpose of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD).We performed ESD for LST, following transanal minimally invasive surgery to suture mucosal defect.He discharged out hospital 9 days after operation without any adverse event except anal pain.Suturing of mucosal defect after ESD might be potent to prevent postoperative complications in radiation induced rectal cancer.
