Abstract
BACKGROUNDS This study aimed to compare the incidence of bile reflux, quality of life (QoL), and nutritional status among Billroth II (BII), Billroth II with Braun anastomosis (BII-B), and Roux-en-Y (RY) reconstruction after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG). MATERIALS AND METHODS We reviewed the prospective data of 397 patients from a multicentre database who underwent LDG for gastric cancer between 2018 and 2020 at 20 tertiary teaching hospitals in Korea. Postoperative endoscopic findings, QoL surveys using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer questionnaire (C30 and STO22), and nutritional and surgical outcomes were compared among groups. RESULTS In endoscopic findings, bile reflux was the lowest in the RY group ( n =67), followed by the BII-B ( n =183) and BII groups ( n =147) at 1 year (3.0 vs. 67.8 vs. 84.4%, all P <0.05). The anti-reflux capability of BII-B was statistically better than that of BII, but not as perfect as that of RY. From the perspective of QoL, BII-B was not inferior to RY, but better than BII reconstruction in causing fewer STO22 reflux symptoms at 6 and 12 months. However, only RY caused fewer C30 nausea symptoms than BII at 6 and 12 months, but not BII-B. Nutritional status and morbidities were similar among the three groups, and the operative time did not differ between the BII-B and RY groups. CONCLUSIONS BII-B cannot substitute for RY in preventing bile reflux, shortening the operative time, or reducing morbidities. Regarding short-term QoL, BII-B was sufficient to reduce STO22 reflux symptoms but failed to reduce C30 nausea symptoms postoperatively.

Abstract
Purpose Laparoscopic right colectomy (LRC) with extracorporeal anastomosis (ECA) remains the most widely adopted technique despite mounting evidence that intracorporeal anastomosis (ICA) offers several advantages. This study aimed to compare the postoperative outcomes of ICA and ECA and to investigate the effect of ICA on postoperative ileus after LRC. Methods This retrospective study included 45 patients who underwent ICA and 63 who underwent ECA in LRC for right-sided colonic diseases between January 2015 and December 2019. Results There were no significant differences in total operation time, blood loss, total length of incisions, tolerance of diet, postoperative pain score on postoperative days 1 and 2, or length of hospital stays between the 2 groups. However, the ICA group had a significantly shorter time to first flatus passage (3.0 ± 0.9 days vs. 3.8 ± 1.9 days, P = 0.013). The rate of postoperative ileus was significantly higher in the ECA group (2.2% vs. 14.3%, P = 0.033); however, there was no significant difference in the overall morbidity within 30 days after surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the ECA technique (odds ratio [OR], 0.098; 95% confidence interval [CI]; 0.011-0.883, P = 0.038) and previous abdominal operation (OR, 5.269; 95% CI, 1.193-23.262; P = 0.028) were independent risk factors for postoperative ileus. Conclusion The postoperative outcomes of patients who underwent LRC with ICA or ECA were comparable, and ICA could reduce the incidence of postoperative ileus after LRC compared with ECA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With the introduction of new therapeutic options for gastric cancer treatment, more precise preoperative staging of gastric cancer is needed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for improving the accuracy of clinical T staging by computed tomography (CT) for gastric cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 2636 patients underwent stomach protocol CT (S-CT) and EUS, followed by gastrectomy for primary gastric adenocarcinoma between September 2012 and February 2018 at Seoul National University Hospital. The results of preoperative S-CT and EUS were compared to the postoperative pathologic staging. RESULTS The overall accuracy of S-CT and EUS for T staging were 69.4% and 70.4%, respectively. When T staging was divided into T1-2 and T3-4 for clinically advanced gastric cancer (AGC), the positive predictive value for T3-4 using S-CT, EUS, and a combination of both modalities was 73.8%, 79.3%, and 85.6%, respectively. In 114 cases of indeterminate lesions between cT1 and cT2 by S-CT, EUS had a better prediction rate than the final decision based on endoscopy or the agreement between the two experts (Match rate: EUS vs. final decision, 69.3% vs. 58.8%). CONCLUSION EUS can be a complementary diagnostic tool to clinical T staging of gastric cancer by CT for selecting T3-4 lesion.

Abstract
Background Scarce data are available on the characteristics of postoperative organ failure (POF) and mortality after gastrectomy. We aimed to describe the causes of organ failure and mortality related to gastrectomy for gastric cancer and to identify patients with POF who are at a risk of failure to rescue (FTR). Methods The study examined patients with POF or in-hospital mortality in Seoul National University Hospital between 2005 and 2014. We identified patients at a high risk of FTR by analyzing laboratory findings, complication data, intensive care unit records, and risk scoring including Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) IV, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, and Simplified Acute Physiology Score (SAPS) 3 at ICU admission. Results Among the 7304 patients who underwent gastrectomy, 80 (1.1%) were identified with Clavien–Dindo classification (CDC) grade ≥ IVa. The numbers of patients with CDC grade IVa, IVb, and V were 48 (0.66%), 11 (0.15%), and 21 (0.29%), respectively. Pulmonary failure (43.8%), surgical site complication (27.5%), and cardiac failure (13.8%) were the most common causes of POF and mortality. Cancer progression (100%) and cardiac events (45.5%) showed high FTR rates. In univariate analysis, acidosis, hypoalbuminemia, SOFA, APACHE IV, and SAPS 3 were identified as risk factors for FTR (P < 0.05). Finally, SAPS 3 was identified as an independent predictive factor for FTR. Conclusions Cancer progression and acute cardiac failure were the most lethal causes of FTR. SAPS 3 is an independent predictor of FTR among POF patients after gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have presented evidence pertaining to the adequate minimum number of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) cycles required to achieve an oncologic benefit for gastric cancer. METHODS From January 2012 to December 2013, data from patients who underwent curative radical gastrectomy and consequently received AC for pathologic stage 2 or 3 gastric cancer at 27 institutions in South Korea were analyzed. RESULTS The study enrolled 925 patients, 661 patients (71.5%) who completed 8 cycles of AC and 264 patients (28.5%) who did not. Compared with the mean disease-free survival (DFS) of the patients who completed 8 AC cycles (69.3 months), the mean DFS of patients who completed 6 AC cycles (72.4 months; p = 0.531) and those who completed 7 AC cycles (63.7 months; p = 0.184) did not differ significantly. However, the mean DFS of the patients who completed 5 AC cycles (48.2 months; p = 0.016) and those who completed 1-4 AC cycles (62.9 months; p = 0.036) was significantly lower than the DFS of those who completed 8 AC cycles. In the multivariate Cox proportional hazards analysis, the mean DFS was significantly affected by advanced stage, large tumor size, positive vascular invasion, and number of completed AC cycles (1-5 cycles: hazard ratio 1.45; 95% confidence interval 1.01-2.08; p = 0.041). CONCLUSION The current multicenter observational cohort study showed that the mean DFS for 6 or 7 AC cycles was similar to that for 8 AC cycles as an adjuvant treatment for gastric cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients who have undergone gastrectomy have unique symptoms that are not appropriately assessed using currently available tools. This study developed and validated a symptom-focused quality of life (QoL) questionnaire for patients who have received gastrectomy for gastric cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Based on a literature review, patient interviews, and expert consultation by the KOrean QUality of life in Stomach cancer patients Study group (KOQUSS), the initial item pool was developed. Two large-scale developmental studies were then sequentially conducted for exploratory factor analyses for content validity and item reduction. The final item pool was validated in a separate cohort of patients and assessed for internal consistency, test-retest reliability, construct validity, and clinical validity. RESULTS The initial questionnaire consisted of 46-items in 12 domains. Data from 465 patients at 11 institutions, followed by 499 patients at 13 institutions, were used to conduct item reduction and exploratory factor analyses. The final questionnaire (KOQUSS-40) comprised 40 items within 11 domains. Validation of KOQUSS-40 was conducted on 413 patients from 12 hospitals. KOQUSS-40 was found to have good model fit. The mean summary score of the KOQUSS-40 was correlated with the EORTC QLQ-C30 and STO22 (correlation coefficients, 0.821 and 0.778, respectively). The KOQUSS-40 score was also correlated with clinical factors, and had acceptable internal consistency (> 0.7). Test-retest reliability was greater than 0.8. CONCLUSION The KOQUSS-40 can be used to assess QoL of gastric cancer patients after gastrectomy and allows for a robust comparison of surgical techniques in clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Near-infrared (NIR) imaging with indocyanine green (ICG)-enhanced fluorescence is widely used in laparoscopic surgery. This study aimed to evaluate this technique's feasibility and usefulness in intraoperatively assessing vascular perfusion in a laparoscopically harvested omental flap. MATERIALS AND SURGICAL TECHNIQUES From March 2015 to February 2016, we prospectively evaluated patients undergoing breast cancer surgery followed by immediate breast reconstruction using a laparoscopically harvested omental flap. After laparoscopic preparation of the pedicled graft, the perfusion area of the omental graft was evaluated by using intraoperative Doppler ultrasonography and NIR imaging with intravenous ICG injection. Graft viability was evaluated by using Doppler ultrasonography 2 days postoperatively; for cosmetic outcome, Breast Cancer Conservative Treatment Cosmetic Results software was used 1 month postoperatively. DISCUSSION The laparoscopic harvesting of an omental flap was successfully performed in eight patients without conversion to open surgery. The mean time to the initial detection of ICG-enhanced fluorescence uptake was 3.25 ± 1.16 minutes. On intraoperative Doppler ultrasonography, a pulseless area ≥10% was detected in five patients (62.5%). However, NIR imaging revealed no patients had an ischemic portion ≥10%. There were no ICG-related intraoperative or postoperative complications. All patients showed patent vessels on Doppler ultrasonography 2 days postoperatively. Cosmetic outcomes were mostly favorable 1 month postoperatively. The Breast Cancer Conservative Treatment Cosmetic Results evaluation 1 month postoperatively showed excellent, good, and fair results, with no poor scores. With regard to vascular perfusion, ICG-enhanced NIR imaging is a feasible and useful tool for harvesting a laparoscopic omental flap in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Purpose To compare long-term disease-free survival (DFS) between patients receiving tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1) or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for gastric cancer (GC). Materials and Methods This retrospective multicenter observational study enrolled 983 patients who underwent curative gastrectomy with consecutive AC with S-1 or CAPOX for stage II or III GC at 27 hospitals in Korea between February 2012 and December 2013. We conducted propensity score matching to reduce selection bias. Long-term oncologic outcomes, including DFS rate over 5 years (over-5yr DFS), were analyzed postoperatively. Results The median and longest follow-up period were 59.0 and 87.6 months, respectively. DFS rate did not differ between patients who received S-1 and CAPOX for pathologic stage II (P=0.677) and stage III (P=0.899) GC. Moreover, hazard ratio (HR) for recurrence did not differ significantly between S-1 and CAPOX (reference) in stage II (HR, 1.846; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.693–4.919; P=0.220) and stage III (HR, 0.942; 95% CI, 0.664–1.337; P=0.738) GC. After adjustment for significance in multivariate analysis, pT (4 vs. 1) (HR, 11.667; 95% CI, 1.595–85.351; P=0.016), pN stage (0 vs. 3) (HR, 2.788; 95% CI, 1.502–5.174; P=0.001), and completion of planned chemotherapy (HR, 2.213; 95% CI, 1.618–3.028; P<0.001) were determined as independent prognostic factors for DFS. Conclusions S-1 and CAPOX AC regimens did not show significant difference in over-5yr DFS after curative gastrectomy in patients with stage II or III GC. The pT, pN stage, and completion of planned chemotherapy were prognostic factors for GC recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic leakage is a severe complication after gastric cancer surgery. Inadequate blood supply is regarded as an important risk factor. The aim of the study was to evaluate the feasibility and usefulness of intraoperative assessment of anastomotic vascular perfusion in gastric cancer surgery using near-infrared (NIR) camera imaging with indocyanine green (ICG)-enhanced fluorescence technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS From March 2015 to 2016, 30 patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer were prospectively evaluated. After completing the anastomosis, 2.5-5.0 mg of ICG was injected via peripheral veins. All anastomoses and resection margins were investigated using NIR camera to assess anastomotic perfusion. The assessment was performed using the adopted perfusion score of fluorescence activity, which ranged from 1 to 5 (1 = no uptake, and 5 = iso-fluorescent to all other segments). RESULTS Twenty-six distal gastrectomy (20 gastroduodenostomies, 6 gastrojejunostomies), 3 total gastrectomies (TG), and 1 pylorus-preserving gastrectomy were performed. The gap of visualization was 4.1 ± 3.2 minutes (range, 2-15) after ICG injection. Twenty-three of 30 patients (76.7%) showed technically successful ICG visualization. Among gastroduodenostomies, the average scores for gastric and duodenal sides were 3.5 and 3.7. Among gastrojejunostomies, the average scores for gastric, jejunal, and duodenal stump sides were 3.5, 4.0, and 3.8 (jejunojejunostomy, 3.5). Among TG, the average scores for esophagojejunostomy, duodenal stump, and jejunojejunostomy were 3.7, 4.0, 4.0, and 4.7. One case of leakage occurred in this study. Other complications included fluid collection and stenosis in 1 patient each. CONCLUSIONS This study showed intraoperative ICG angiography using NIR camera is feasible and provides imaging of anastomotic blood flow. Further studies are needed for practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The comprehensive complication index (CCI) integrates all complications of the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) and offers a metric approach to measure morbidity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the CCI at a high-volume center for gastric cancer surgery and to compare the CCI to the conventional CDC. METHODS Clinical factors were collected from the prospective complication data of gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at Seoul National University Hospital from 2013 to 2014. CDC and CCI were calculated, and risk factors were investigated. Correlations and generalized linear models of hospital stay were compared between the CCI and CDC. The complication monitoring model with cumulative sum control-CCI (CUSUM-CCI) was displayed for individual surgeons, for comparisons between surgeons, and for the institution. RESULTS From 1660 patients, 583 complications in 424 patients (25.5%) were identified. The rate of CDC grade IIIa or greater was 9.7%, and the overall CCI was 5.8 ± 11.7. Age, gender, Charlson score, combined resection, open method, and total gastrectomy were associated with increased CCI (p < 0.05). The CCI demonstrated a stronger relationship with hospital stay (ρ = 0.721, p < 0.001) than did the CDC (ρ = 0.634, p < 0.001). For prolonged hospital stays (≥30 days), only the CCI showed a moderate correlation (ρ = 0.544, p = 0.024), although the CDC did not. The CUSUM-CCI model displayed dynamic time-event differences in individual and comparison monitoring models. In the institution monitoring model, a gradual decrease in the CCI was observed. CONCLUSIONS The CCI is more strongly correlated with postoperative hospital stay than is the conventional CDC. The CUSUM-CCI model can be used for the continuous monitoring of surgical quality.

Abstract
Malnutrition is very common in gastric cancer patients and can be detected in up to 85% of patients with gastric cancer. Malnutrition is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, prolonged hospital stay, poor treatment tolerance, and lower survival rate. Malnutrition also has an impact on quality of life. The early detection of nutritional risk with appropriate nutritional care can significantly reduce patient's postoperative morbidity and mortality. Because there is no gold standard tool, appropriate tools should be selected and applied depending on one's institutional conditions. And, it is recommended that nutritional assessment should be achieved for every patient at pre/post-operative period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To examine the effect and mechanism of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on the improvement of diabetes according to the length of anastomosis and the gastric pouch volume in an animal model. METHODS Glucose intolerance was induced with a high-fat diet for 3 months in Sprague-Dawley rats. The animals were subjected to conventional RYGB (cRYGB; 5% gastric pouch with 15-cm Roux limb, 40-cm biliopancreatic limb; n = 9), short-limb RYGB (sRYGB; 5%, 8, 4 cm; n = 9), fundus-sparing RYGB (fRYGB; 30%, 8, 4 cm; n = 9), or sham operation (n = 9). After 6 weeks, oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTTs) were performed, and gut hormones including insulin, total GLP-1, GIP, and ghrelin were analyzed. RESULTS The cRYGB group showed significantly decreased food intake, body weight, and random glucose (p < 0.05). sRYGB resulted in a similar change of body weight loss to that of cRYGB, but with no improvement of hyperglycemia. The fRYGB group showed similar changes of body weight and random glucose to those of the sham group. In cRYGB and sRYGB, the level of insulin steeply increased until 30 min during OGTT. GLP-1 was higher at 30 min in cRYGB than in other groups, without significance. The fRYGB group showed a slowly increasing pattern in OGTT and GLP-1, and the lowest peak point in insulin and GIP. CONCLUSION cRYGB with 95% gastric resection was needed to achieve not only weight loss but also diabetes improvement, which could be related to the increase in GLP-1.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate tolerance to adjuvant chemotherapy, and to compare survival between treatments using only surgery and using surgery with adjuvant chemotherapy, in elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer who were ≥75 years of age. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients ≥75 years of age who were diagnosed with pathological stage II or III gastric cancer were identified retrospectively and categorized into the surgery only and surgery with adjuvant chemotherapy groups. Clinicopathological and survival data were compared between these two groups. RESULTS Among the 130 patients studied, 67 patients underwent curative surgery only, and 63 patients received adjuvant chemotherapy after curative surgery. In the latter group, adverse events were reported in 24 patients (38.1%). The treatments were discontinued in 19 patients (30.2%) owing to any reason. The overall 5-year survival rates of the surgery only and the surgery with adjuvant chemotherapy groups did not differ significantly (44.1% vs. 30.7%, respectively; P=0.804). Among 90 death events, deaths from recurrences of gastric cancer occurred in 42 patients. Multivariate analyses revealed that the American Society of Anesthesiologists score and the depths of tumor invasions were related to survival, and the addition of adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery did not influence survival. CONCLUSIONS The decision for the addition of adjuvant chemotherapy for elderly patients should be taken after considering the condition of individual patients and their life expectancies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The number of elderly patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery has recently increased. We therefore evaluated the short- and long-term outcomes of elderly patients after curative gastrectomy. METHODS Overall, 824 patients were included in this retrospective study, which comprised of a non-elderly group (60-64 years; n = 558), an early-elderly group (75-79 years; n = 198), and a late-elderly group (≥80 years; n = 68) who underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer between 2005 and 2009. Postoperative complications, according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, and survival of both elderly groups were compared with the non-elderly group. Postoperative life expectancy of the late-elderly group was compared with the corresponding aged general population. RESULTS Overall and severe (grade III or higher) complications in the early-elderly group were comparable with the non-elderly group; however, those in the late-elderly group were significantly more common than in the non-elderly group (p = 0.013 and p = 0.043, respectively). Multivariable analysis revealed that age ≥80 years was an independent risk factor for severe complications (hazard ratio 3.02, 95 % confidence interval 1.12-8.17; p = 0.029), and the disease-specific survivals of both elderly groups were comparable with the non-elderly group in all TNM stages. Postoperative life expectancy of late-elderly patients eliminating death from recurrence was comparable with the corresponding aged general population eliminating death from gastric cancer. CONCLUSIONS Gastric cancer surgery in elderly patients aged ≥80 years achieves reasonable long-term survival despite the increased risk of severe complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The manual dexterity of a surgeon is known to be related with surgical proficiency. Recently, as an objective measurement of surgical skills, inanimate methods using several types of simulators have been introduced. Using these simulators, we aimed to investigate the impact of manual dexterity on laparoscopic and robotic surgical proficiency. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fellow surgeons, surgical residents, and medical students (n = 32) participated in this study. For the measurement of dexterity, the sums and differences of the right and left hand performance times for the Grooved Pegboard Test were used as an index of dexterity speed and ambidexterity, respectively. The performance times during three sessions of laparoscopic suturing using a D-box trainer and the performance scores during three sessions using two robotic suturing programs with different degrees of difficulty provided by the da Vinci® Skills Simulator™ (Intuitive Surgical Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) were analyzed according to the measured manual dexterity. RESULTS Manual dexterity was not a significant factor for performance time during laparoscopic suturing, which was more influenced by participants' surgical experiences. In robotic suturing, the performance score was impacted significantly by manual dexterity in terms of ambidexterity rather than dexterity speed. For an easy robotic suturing task, the gap of proficiency between the lower and higher ambidexterity groups was decreased successively with each of the three sessions. However, that gap in cases with a difficult task was maintained consistently throughout all three sessions. CONCLUSIONS The degree of ambidexterity was an initial predictor for proficiency with simulated robotic suture. However, this relation could be lessened through a few sessions of training, although for a more difficult task further repetitions would be needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been shown to improve the rate of complete (R0) resection and downstaging in patients with localized gastric cancer. There are few reports, however, regarding its impact on postoperative morbidity and mortality. The aims of this study were to analyse complication and mortality rates after neoadjuvant chemotherapy using a modified regimen of folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil and oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) for locally advanced gastric cancer (AGC), compared with rates in patients who underwent surgery without neoadjuvant chemotherapy. METHODS Data were collected from patients with AGC enrolled in a phase II trial of four cycles of neoadjuvant mFOLFOX6 followed by surgery, between January 2005 and June 2008 at two of three institutions, and compared with those from a cohort of patients with AGC who underwent surgery alone at one of the institutions in 2006. RESULTS Among 51 patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, there were no deaths and a morbidity rate of 24 per cent after surgery. Comparison of 48 patients in one institution who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 92 patients who had surgery alone in the same institution showed no increase in postoperative morbidity (23 versus 29 per cent; P = 0·417). Combined resection was the only risk factor for postoperative morbidity after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. CONCLUSION Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with mFOLFOX is a safe treatment for patients with localized AGC, and does not increase postoperative morbidity or mortality.
