Improvement of perioperative outcomes of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) resections and the influence of minimal invasive surgery. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2024; 50:108479. [PMID: 38901292 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejso.2024.108479] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Safety of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) for gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) is still under debate since it might increase the risk of tumour rupture, especially in larger tumours. The aim of this study was to investigate trends in treatment and perioperative outcomes of patients undergoing resections of gastric GISTs over time. METHODS This was a multicentre retrospective study of consecutive patients who underwent wedge resection or partial gastrectomy for localized gastric GIST at five GIST reference centres between January 2009 and January 2022. To evaluate changes in treatment and perioperative outcomes over time, patients were divided into four equal periods. Perioperative outcomes were analysed separately and as a novel composite measure textbook outcome (TO). RESULTS In total 385 patients were included. Patient and tumour characteristics did not change over time, except for median age (62-65-68-68 years, p = 0.002). The proportion of MIS increased (4.0%-9.8%-37.4%-53.0 %, p < 0.001). Postoperative complications (Clavien Dindo ≥2; 22%-15%-11%-10 %, p = 0.146), duration of admission (6-6-5-4 days, p < 0.001) and operating time (92-94-77-73 min, p = 0.007) decreased over time while TO increased (54.0%- 52.7%-65.9%-76.0 %, p < 0.001). No change was seen in perioperative ruptures (6.0%- 3.6%-1.6%-3.0 %, p = 0.499). MIS was correlated with less CD ≥ 2 complications (p = 0.006), shorter duration of admission (p < 0.001) and more TO (p < 0.001). Similar results were observed in tumours ≤5 cm and >5 cm. CONCLUSION A larger percentage of gastric GIST were treated with MIS over time. MIS was correlated with less complications, shorter duration of admission and more TO. Tumour rupture rates remained low over time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have demonstrated comparable outcomes between laparoscopic and open resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). We sought to compare outcomes among robotic, laparoscopic, and open resection of gastric GIST in the era of expanding minimally invasive surgery. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of adult patients with gastric GIST undergoing definitive surgery using the National Cancer Database from 2010 to 2020, excluding cases converted to open. Patients were stratified into minimally invasive surgery (MIS), (combined robotic (R) and laparoscopic (L)), and open (O). Hospital length of stay (LOS), 30-day mortality, 90-day mortality, and margin status were assessed. Subgroup analysis was performed to evaluate outcomes between R and L cohorts. Entropy balancing was used to adjust for intergroup differences. Kaplan-Meier survival estimates were used to compare unadjusted 5-year survival. RESULTS Of the 15,022 patients (R = 10.4%, L = 44.3%, O = 45.3%), 63.2% were stage I and 70.6% underwent partial gastrectomy. MIS approach was associated with shorter hospital LOS (β: - 2.58; 95% CI: - 2.82 to - 2.33) and lower odds of 30-day (OR 0.45; 95% CI: 0.30-0.68) and 90-day mortality (OR 0.54; 95% CI: 0.39-0.74) compared to O. Likelihood of R0 resection similar between groups (OR 1.00; 95% CI: 0.88-1.14). Hospital LOS (β: + 0.25; 95% CI: - 0.14-0.64), odds of 30-day (OR 0.99; 95% CI: 0.40-2.46) and 90-day mortality (OR 0.89; 95% CI: 0.47-1.70), and rate of R0 resection (OR 1.02; 95% CI: 0.82-1.27) were comparable between R and L cohorts. Compared to O, MIS approach was associated with improved 5-year OS (log rank p < 0.001). Overall survival was not significantly different between R and L (log rank p = 0.44). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that MIS approach may be considered for resection of gastric GIST in select patients. Among patients receiving an MIS approach, the robotic technique can be considered an oncologically safe alternative to laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
AIM Laparoscopic surgery is widely used for small gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) (≤ 5 cm) but remains a controversial approach for larger gastric GISTs (> 5 cm). This study aims to compare short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic resection in comparison with open resection for gastric GISTs measuring over 5 cm. METHOD All patients receiving surgery for gastric GIST > 5 cm between 2000 and 2021 in a single tertiary hospital were included. Data were collected from prospectively maintained records. Kaplan-Meier method and log rank test were used to compare survival outcomes. RESULTS Among 108 included patients, 59 patients had minimally invasive (MI) surgery (54.6%) whereas 49 patients had open surgery (46.4%). The rate of overall postoperative morbidity was 14.8% and the median length was significantly shorter in the MI group [4 (range 2-30) vs. 7 (range 4-33) days; P = 0.007]. The overall R0 resection rate was 98.2% and the rate of tumor rupture was 13%, not different between the two groups. Recurrence occurred in 24% of the whole population without any difference between groups (20.3% vs. 28.7%, p = 0.31). Minimally invasive surgery was not found as a negative prognostic disease-free survival factor. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic surgery could be a safe and feasible alternative to open surgery in large gastric GIST, bringing the benefits of minimally invasive surgery without compromising oncologic results.

[PMID: 38846924 PMCID: PMC11153673 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2024.1391387] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors in challenging anatomical locations are difficult to remove. Methods This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 12 patients with gastric GISTs in challenging anatomical locations who underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic combined with endoscopic partial gastrectomy (RALE-PG) and manual suturing of the gastric wall. Results This study included 12 patients with a mean age of 56.8 ± 9.8 years and a mean BMI of 23.9 ± 1.9 kg/m2. Tumors were located in the GEJ (n = 3), lesser curvature (n = 3), posterior gastric wall (n = 3) and antrum (n = 3). The cardia and pylorus were successfully preserved in all patients regardless of the tumor location. The mean tumor size was 4.5 ± 1.4 cm. The mitotic-count/50 mm2 was less than 5 in all patients (100%). There was no intraoperative tumor rupture (0%) and no conversion to open surgery (0%). The median operation time was 122 (97-240) min, and the median blood loss volume was 10 (5-30) ml. The median postoperative VAS score was 2 (2-4). The median time to first flatus was 2 (2-3) days. The median time to first fluid intake was 2 (2-3) days. The median time to first ambulation after the operation was 3 (2-4) days. No cases of anastomotic stenosis or leakage were found. The median time to drain removal for 6 patients was 5 (4-7) days. The median time to nasogastric tube removal for all patients was 2 (1-5) days. The median postoperative hospital stay was 5 (4-8) days. One patient (female/41 year) developed moderate anemia (Clavien-Dindo grade II complication). There was no unplanned readmission within 30 days after the operation. The median distance from the tumor to the resection margin was 1 (1-2) cm. R0 resection was achieved in all patients. The median follow-up period was 19 (10-25) months, and all patients survived with no recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions RALE-PG is a safe, feasible and advantageous technique for treating GISTs in challenging anatomical locations. It can be used to accurately remove the tumor while preserving gastric function to the greatest extent, but long-term oncologic outcomes need to be evaluated in a study with a larger sample size and longer follow-up period.

Abstract
Key Clinical Message Duodenal GISTs are rare and challenging tumors. Acute life-threatening upper GI bleeding is a possible presentation of duodenal GISTs. Surgery is the standard treatment for localized duodenal GISTs. Imatinib is an effective adjuvant therapy for duodenal GISTs. Abstract GIST is the most common mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract, accounting for 1%-2% of gastrointestinal tumors. They originate from the interstitial cells of Cajal and are rare in patients younger than 30 years. The stomach is the most common site, followed by the small intestine and colon. GISTs are caused by a gain-of-function mutation in the proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase, with activating mutations in KIT being the most common. Most GISTs are asymptomatic. Even if gastrointestinal bleeding is the most common complication life-threatening hemorrhage is extremely uncommon. We present a case of a 31-year-old male patient presented with massive active hematemesis and melena with hemorrhagic shock. The patient presented with massive hematemesis and melena of 1 h duration. Endoscopy showed pulsating active bleeding from the third part of the duodenum which was difficult to manage via endoscopy. Histopathologic evaluation showed spindle cell type GIST. Intraoperatively, there was a nodular mass with active bleeding on the third part of the duodenum. Duodenectomy with end-to-end anastomosis was done. Discharged with no postoperative complication and was put on imatinib. There are considerable challenges that arise in the diagnosis and treatment of duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) when they present with life-threatening upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. In order to achieve the best possible outcomes for patients, it is crucial to have a comprehensive understanding of the clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and treatment approaches.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the clinical and prognostic characteristics of primary gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). METHODS Patients who underwent resection for primary gastric GIST between January 2002 and December 2017 were included. Recurrence-free survival (RFS) was calculated by Kaplan-Meier analysis, and Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify independent prognostic factors. RESULTS Altogether, 653 patients were enrolled. The median patient age was 59 years (range 15-86 years). Open, laparoscopic, and endoscopic resections were performed in 394 (60.3%), 105 (16.1%), and 154 (23.6%) patients, respectively. According to the modified NIH consensus classification, 132 (20.2%), 245 (37.5%), 166 (25.4%), and 88 (13.5%) patients were categorized into very low-, low-, intermediate-, and high-risk, respectively. A total of 136 (20.8%) patients received adjuvant imatinib treatment. The median follow-up time was 78 months (range 4-219 months), and the estimated 5-year RFS rate was 93.0%. In all patients, tumor size and rupture, mitotic counts, and adjuvant imatinib treatment were independent prognostic factors. The prognosis of gastric GIST treated with endoscopic resection was not significantly different from that of laparoscopic or open resection after adjusting for covariates using propensity score matching (log-rank p = .558). Adjuvant imatinib treatment (HR = 0.151, 95%CI 0.055-0.417, p < .001) was a favorable prognostic factor for high-risk patients, but was not associated with prognosis in intermediate-risk patients. CONCLUSION Patients with small gastric GISTs who successfully underwent endoscopic resection may have a favorable prognosis. Adjuvant imatinib treatment improve the prognosis of high-risk gastric GISTs, however, its use in intermediate-risk patients remains controversial.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is the most common malignant neoplasm of mesenchymal origin. GIST spans a wide clinical spectrum that ranges from tumors with essentially no metastatic potential to malignant and life-threatening spread diseases. Gain-of-function mutations in KIT or PDGFRA receptor tyrosine kinases are the crucial drivers of most GISTs, responsible for tumor initiation and evolution throughout the entire course of the disease. The introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors targeting these receptors has substantially improved the outcomes in this formerly chemoresistant cancer. As of today, five agents hold regulatory approval for the treatment of GIST: imatinib, sunitinib, regorafenib, ripretinib, and avapritinib. This, in turn, represents a success for a rare neoplasm. During the past two decades, GIST has become a paradigmatic model in cancer for multidisciplinary work, given the disease-specific particularities regarding tumor biology and tumor evolution. Herein, we review currently available evidence for the management of GIST. This clinical practice guideline has been developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel (oncologist, pathologist, surgeon, molecular biologist, radiologist, and representative of patients' advocacy groups) from the Spanish Group for Sarcoma Research, and it is conceived to provide, from a critical perspective, the standard approach for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up.

Abstract
Organ sparing resection of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) located in the proximal stomach or esophagogastric junction can be challenging, resulting in proximal or total gastrectomy to facilitate a radical resection without tumor spill. We developed and evaluated a single incision surgical gastroscopy (SISG) procedure to provide a technically feasible alternative for the removal of gastric GISTs at these challenging locations. We developed an endoluminal resection of gastric GISTs through a small single abdominal incision and longitudinal ventral gastrotomy. Patients with a proximal tumor location, in whom a wedge resection was deemed challenging on pre-operative investigation were included in the current series. Safety, short-term oncological and surgical outcome were evaluated. We performed SISG in six consecutive patients with histopathological proven or suspected gastric GIST. In all patients, the procedure was performed successfully with no tumor rupture. The mean operative time was 61 min and there were no significant complications. Pathological examination showed a microscopically radical resection in all patients. Single incision surgical gastroscopy is a feasible technique with excellent short-term oncological and surgical outcomes. This technique serves as a good alternative for complicated resections for gastric GISTs at challenging locations.

Oncological outcomes of large gastrointestinal stromal tumors treated by laparoscopic resection. Surg Endosc 2023; 37:2021-2028. [PMID: 36284015 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09693-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/25/2022] [Indexed: 10/31/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The resection of large gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) by laparoscopic has been controversial. Extending from our prior study, the long-term oncological outcome of laparoscopic resection of large (5-8 cm) gastric GISTs was reported. METHODS From 2002 to 2018, a consecutive 66 patients with gastric GISTs of 5-8 cm were treated at National Taiwan University Hospital. Among them, 30 patients received open surgery, and 36 received laparoscopic surgery. The clinicopathological data, peri-operative and oncological outcomes were compared between groups. RESULTS The clinical demographics including sex, age, BMI, tumor locations and ratio of wedge resection were similar between groups. The mean tumor size was 6.0 ± 0.83 cm versus 6.3 ± 1.07 cm (Open vs. Laparoscopic, p = 0.3). The operation time, blood loss, and post-operative complications, were also similar. The mean hospital stay was shorter in the laparoscopic group (8.8 ± 2.5 days) than in the open group (12.0 ± 8.9 days), though not significantly different. The median follow-up time was 108 ± 58 months (97 ± 50 in laparoscopic group; 122 ± 64 in open group). All except three patients remain disease-free. One in the open group and two in the laparoscopic group had recurrence of tumor, and they were stable of disease under Imatinib treatment. Eight patients died in non-GIST causes during follow-up. The 5-year recurrence-free survival were 100% for the open and 94.2% for the laparoscopic group (p = 0.2). CONCLUSION Our data showed that laparoscopic surgery for gastric GIST between 5 and 8 cm was safe and oncologically feasible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical resection represents the main treatment for resectable nonmetastatic gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Despite the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic resection, its standard use in gastric tumors larger than 5 cm is yet to be established. AIMS This study aimed to compare the current evidence on laparoscopic resection with the classical open surgical approach in terms of perioperative, postoperative, and oncological outcomes. METHODS The PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were consulted. Articles comparing the approach to gastric gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors larger than 5 cm by open and laparoscopic surgery were eligible. A post hoc subgroup analysis based on the extent of the surgery was performed to evaluate the operative time, blood loss, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS A total of nine studies met the eligibility criteria. In the study, 246 patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery and 301 patients undergoing open surgery were included. The laparoscopic approach had statistically significant lower intraoperative blood loss (p=0.01) and time to oral intake (p<0.01), time to first flatus (p<0.01), and length of hospital stay (0.01), compared to the open surgery approach. No significant differences were found when operative time (0.25), postoperative complications (0.08), R0 resection (0.76), and recurrence rate (0.09) were evaluated. The comparative subgroup analysis between studies could not explain the substantial heterogeneity obtained in the respective outcomes. CONCLUSION The laparoscopic approach in gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors larger than 5 cm compared to the open surgical approach is a technically safe and feasible surgical method with similar oncological results.

Front Surg 2022; 9:1015126. [PMID: 36238859 PMCID: PMC9551255 DOI: 10.3389/fsurg.2022.1015126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To investigate the safety, efficacy, and selection strategy of laparoscopic local gastrectomy for stromal tumors in the esophagogastric junction. Methods Thirty-eight patients with mesenchymal tumors in the esophagogastric junction were retrospectively enrolled from April 2018 to July 2021 in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference. Surgical outcomes, complications, recover, and postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of both groups were compared. Results 27 patients underwent wedge resection, and 11 underwent resection by opening all of the layers of the stomach wall. Operative time (90.0 vs. 181.8 min, respectively, P = 0.001) was shorter for the WR group vs. RASW. Blood loss (20 vs. 50 ml, respectively, P = 0.012) was less for the WR group vs. RASW. Recovery of the RASW group was slower in terms of time to pass gas (2 vs. 3 days, P = 0.034), time to oral intake (2 vs. 4 days, P = 0.007), time to semi-liquid food intake (4 vs. 8 days, P = 0.003), and postoperative hospitalization (5 vs. 8 days, P = 0.001) vs. WR. In terms of short-term complications (≤30 days), no significant between-group differences were observed. Cardia stenosis did not occur in either group. In the WR group, one patient experienced mild reflux at 6 months and recovered 1 year after surgery. In the RASW group, one patient experienced severe gastroesophageal reflux at 6 months and 1 year after surgery, which was not entirely relieved by taking antacids. No other patients have gastroesophageal reflux. Conclusion Laparoscopic local gastrectomy is safe and feasible for mesenchymal tumors in the esophagogastric junction in which the upper edge of the tumor is less than 2 cm from the Z-line or has invaded the Z-line <1/2 circumference, and has achieved an excellent short-term effect. The choice of surgery is based on the relationship between the tumor and the position of the cardia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of laparoscopy-assisted resection for treating gastrointestinal stromal tumors >5 cm is still disputed. We aimed to assess the advantages of laparoscopy-assisted resection for treating gastrointestinal stromal tumors >5 cm. METHODS In total, 1,802 patients with primary gastrointestinal stromal tumors who underwent laparoscopy-assisted surgery or open surgery were retrospectively evaluated. Propensity score matching was performed to reduce confounders. RESULTS In total, 518 patients with tumor size >5 cm were enrolled in this study (males: 292, 56.4%; females: 226, 43.6%; median age: 58 years, range: 23-85 years). One hundred and twenty-three (23.7%) patients underwent laparoscopy-assisted resection, and 395 (76.3%) patients underwent open resection. After propensity score matching, 190 patients were included (95 in each group). The laparoscopy-assisted surgery group was superior to the open surgery group considering the blood loss (>200 mL: 6.3% vs 22.1%, P = .005), length of midline incision (6.0 ± 0.9 cm vs 9.6 ± 2.1 cm, P < .001), time to first flatus (49.7 ± 10.5 hours vs 63.9 ± 7.4 hours, P < .001), and shorter hospital stay (10.3 ± 3.2 days vs 11.9 ± 2.9 days, P < .001). The difference in relapse-free survival or overall survival between the laparoscopy-assisted surgery and open surgery groups after matching was not significant (all P > .05). On subgroup analysis, the relapse-free survival and overall survival of the laparoscopy-assisted surgery group were comparable to those of the open surgery group, irrespective of tumor location (gastric or nongastric locations) (all P > .05). CONCLUSION When performed by experienced surgeons, laparoscopy-assisted resection is feasible and safe for gastrointestinal stromal tumors >5 cm, which showed improved short-term outcomes and comparable oncological outcomes, regardless of whether the tumor had a gastric or nongastric location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety and feasibility of laparoscopic surgery for the management of rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors are unknown. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare the surgical and oncologic results of laparoscopic versus open surgery for the treatment of rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors. DESIGN This was a retrospective multicenter propensity score-matched study to minimize heterogeneity between groups and focus on the difference between surgery strategies. SETTINGS Eleven Chinese tertiary hospitals participated in this study. PATIENTS A total of 364 patients with pathologically confirmed rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors were retrospectively analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Relapse-free survival, postoperative hospital stay length, and 30-day postoperative complication rate were the main outcome measures. RESULTS We enrolled 214 patients who underwent surgical operation for primary localized rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors. After propensity score matching, 134 cases involved in the comparison (67 laparoscopic vs 67 open surgery) were randomly matched (1:1) by sex, age, tumor size, tumor site, and neoadjuvant therapy. The laparoscopic surgery group had superior relapse-free survival (χ2 = 4.46, p = 0.04), and fewer complications (6.0% vs 25.4%, p = 0.002). No significant difference was found in the length of postoperative hospital stay between the laparoscopic surgery and open surgery groups (9.66 ± 5.42 vs. 10.64 ± 4.93, p = 0.28). Subgroup analysis showed that the laparoscopic surgery group had superior relapse-free survival (χ2 = 4.14, p = 0.04) and fewer complications after surgery (2.9% vs 24.4%, p = 0.01) in the rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors ≤5 cm subgroup. LIMITATIONS This study was limited by the nature of retrospective reviews and relatively short follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic surgery offers a safe and feasible option for the radical resection of primary localized rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors, especially for patients with rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors ≤5 cm.

Abstract
The idea that perioperative outcomes may be improved through the implementation of measures that modify the surgical stress response has been around for several decades. Many techniques have been trialled with varying success. In addition, how the response to modification is measured, what constitutes a positive result and how this translates into clinical practice is the subject of debate. Modification of the stress response is the principal tenet behind the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) movement which has seen the development of guidelines for perioperative care across a variety of surgical specialties bringing with them significant improvements in outcomes.

Abstract
The advantages of laparoscopic resection over open surgery in the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) are not conclusive. This study aimed to evaluate the postoperative and oncologic outcome of laparoscopic resection for gastric GIST, compared to open surgery. We retrospectively reviewed the prospectively collected database of 1019 patients with gastric GIST after surgical resection at 13 Korean and 2 Japanese institutions. The surgical and oncologic outcomes were compared between laparoscopic and open group, through 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM). The laparoscopic group (N = 318) had a lower rate of overall complications (3.5% vs. 7.9%, P = 0.024) and wound complications (0.6% vs. 3.1%, P = 0.037), shorter hospitalization days (6.68 ± 4.99 vs. 8.79 ± 6.50, P < 0.001) than the open group (N = 318). The superiority of the laparoscopic approach was also demonstrated in patients with tumors larger than 5 cm, and at unfavorable locations. The recurrence-free survival was not different between the two groups, regardless of tumor size, locational favorableness, and risk classifications. Cox regression analysis revealed that tumor size larger than 5 cm, higher mitotic count, R1 resection, and tumor rupture during surgery were independent risk factors for recurrence. Laparoscopic surgery provides lower rates of complications and shorter hospitalizations for patients with gastric GIST than open surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumours of the digestive system, and complete resection is the only way to provide a radical cure for resectable GISTs. Open surgery and minimally invasive approaches, including laparoscopy, robotic surgery and endoscopy, consist of the mainstream GIST resection. However, there is still a lack of evidence regarding which surgical outcomes and long-term prognosis would be better. Thus, we are planning to conduct a network meta-analysis and systematic review aiming to determine the comparative effectiveness among laparotomy, laparoscopy, endoscopy, robotic surgery, and laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery in GISTs. METHOD AND ANALYSIS PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science will be searched for published studies to identify the proper literature comparing open resection, laparoscopy, endoscopy, robotic surgery, and laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery for resecting GISTs from inception to February 2021. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and non-randomised studies comparing at least two different interventions for GIST resection will be included. RCTs and non-randomised studies will be synthesised and analysed separately. Bayesian network meta-analysis will be performed to compare the surgical outcomes and long-term prognosis among the resection methods above. The included studies will be divided into several subgroups according to tumour location and size for further analysis. Sensitivity analysis will be performed to identify and explain heterogeneity to make our results robust. Meta-regression will serve as a supplementary method if data are available. The quality of evidence will be evaluated by the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION No ethical approval is required for this network meta-analysis, as it is based on already published data. The findings of the review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42021237892.

Oncol Lett 2021; 22:734. [PMID: 34429774 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2021.12995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Although the use of laparoscopic surgery is increasing, controversy still surrounds its application for malignant conditions. Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are less demanding in terms of lymphadenectomy, meaning that laparoscopic resection might have a more defined benefit when compared with open resection. To the best of our knowledge, no randomized study exists that compares the laparoscopic and open resection of GISTs. The current study aimed to examine the relevant literature by means of a systematic review. A systematic literature search was performed individually by two authors, in which three independent databases were searched using specific search-terms. Titles, abstracts and full texts were screened, as well as references to relevant articles, in order to comprise a comprehensive list of studies. Data were extracted using a detailed pre-agreed spreadsheet. Studies were evaluated according to the modified MINORS criteria. A total of 10 studies were included in the present review, yielding a total of 14 entries. The majority of studies reported significantly improved perioperative outcomes for the laparoscopic approach, including improved duration of operation, blood loss and length of hospital stay. Only four studies reported long-term outcomes and findings that were controversial, with some studies detecting no statistically significant differences, one reporting improved and one reporting worse disease-free and overall survival for the laparoscopic group. Three studies were deemed to be good quality, two of which had not reported significantly different long-term outcomes, while the third had reported significantly improved outcomes in the open resection group. While there is a clear benefit for performing laparoscopic surgery in patients with GIST with regards to perioperative outcomes, when it comes to long-term oncological outcomes, uncertainty over its application remains. The lack of randomized trials, as well as the poor reporting of retrospective studies, limits the amount of evidence that is currently available. Laparoscopic surgery for GIST is certainly safe, feasible and likely cost-effective; however, further studies are required to inform on whether this technique is superior to open resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although minimally invasive techniques are currently recognized as effective and validated treatment for small gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), the role of laparoscopy is not yet established. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of laparoscopic treatment of gastric GISTs compared to the results obtained in a group of patients treated with conventional surgery. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed, using a prospectively maintained comprehensive database of 100 patients treated for gastric GIST in the period from 2000 to 2015. Thirty-six patients were treated laparoscopically and 64 patients underwent conventional surgery. The analyzed medical data included clinical and pathological features of removed tumors, perioperative parameters as well as short and long-term results of surgical treatment. RESULTS Histopathological examination confirmed radical resection for all patients. No deaths were reported in the 90-day post-operative period. Patients in laparoscopic group had significantly shorter length of hospital stay (5.5 vs. 7 days, p<0.0001), fewer extended and combined surgical procedures (11.2% vs 34.4% and 2.8% vs 39%; p=0.02 and p<0.001, respectively), and a smaller tumor size compared to laparotomic group (3 vs 6 cm, p<0.0001). The median post-operative follow-up for the entire study population was 42 months. During this period, 11 patients died and 4 of them developed a tumor recurrence. None of them was in the laparoscopic group. CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopy in the treatment of gastric GISTs has unquestionable advantages, but its choice is strictly related to tumor features.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal surgical procedure for duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (D-GISTs) remains poorly defined. Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) allows for a wide resection but is associated with a high morbidity rate. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the short- and long-term outcomes of PD versus limited resection (LR) for D-GISTs and to evaluate the role of tumor enucleation (EN). METHODS In this retrospective European multicenter cohort study, 100 patients who underwent resection for D-GIST between 2001 and 2013 were compared between PD (n = 19) and LR (n = 81). LR included segmental duodenectomy (n = 47), wedge resection (n = 21), or EN (n = 13). The primary objective was to evaluate disease-free survival (DFS) between the groups, while the secondary objectives were to analyze the overall morbidity and mortality, radicality of resection, and 5-year overall survival (OS) and recurrence rates between groups. Furthermore, the short- and long-term outcomes of EN were evaluated. RESULTS Baseline characteristics were comparable between the PD and LR groups, except for a more frequent D2 tumor location in the PD group (68.3% vs. 29.6%; p = 0.016). Postoperative morbidity was higher after PD (68.4% vs. 23.5%; p < 0.001). OS (p = 0.70) and DFS (p = 0.64) were comparable after adjustment for D2 location and adjuvant therapy rate. EN was performed more in American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) stage III/IV patients with tumors < 5 cm and was associated with a 5-year OS rate of 84.6%, without any disease recurrences. CONCLUSIONS For D-GISTs, LR should be the procedure of choice due to lower morbidity and similar oncological outcomes compared with PD. In selected patients, EN appears to be associated with equivalent short- and long-term outcomes. Based on these results, a surgical treatment algorithm is proposed.

Abstract
AIM Duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) constitute a small rare subset. This study aims to analyze the prognostic differences between duodenal and jejunoileal GISTs and evaluate the clinical treatment and prognostic characteristics of patients with duodenal GISTs. METHODS Data of patients with primary duodenal or jejunoileal GISTs were collected. Patients were matched through propensity score matching (PSM). Perioperative and long-term outcomes of patients with duodenal GISTs were compared based on surgical approach. RESULTS Altogether, 101 duodenal and 219 jejunoileal GISTs were identified. In patients with duodenal GISTs, 79 (78%) underwent local resection (LR) and 22 (22%) underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). Patients undergoing PD had a longer postoperation stay (18.5 vs 13 days, P = 0.001) and more complications (Clavien-Dindo I-II complications for PD vs LR, 31.8 vs 15.2%; Clavien-Dindo III-V complications for PD vs LR, 22.7 vs. 2.5%; P < 0.001). There was no difference in recurrence-free survival (RFS) (P = 0.8) or overall survival (OS) (P = 0.9) when comparing patients who underwent LR versus PD. Multivariable analysis showed that tumor size >5 cm was the only independent predictor of shorter RFS (P = 0.004) and OS (P = 0.012). After matching, there was no significant difference in RFS and OS between patients with duodenal versus jejunoileal GISTs (both P > 0.05). CONCLUSION The prognosis of duodenal and jejunoileal GISTs are similar. Recurrence and OS of duodenal GISTs primarily depend on tumor size. For duodenal GISTs, LR is associated with comparable long-term survival when compared to PD, but with superior short-term outcomes.

Abstract
Objective Laparoscopic resection is increasingly performed for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). However, the laparoscopic approach for GISTs located in the esophagogastric junction (EGJ-GIST) is surgically challenging. This study compares the efficacy of laparoscopic surgery and the open procedure for EGJ-GIST through the propensity score weighting (PSW) method. Methods Between April 2006 and April 2018, 1,824 surgical patients were diagnosed with primary gastric GIST at four medical centers in South China. Of these patients, 228 were identified as EGJ-GISTs and retrospectively reviewed clinicopathological characteristics, operative information, and long-term outcomes. PSW was used to create the balanced cohorts. Results PSW was carried out in laparoscopic and open-surgery cohorts according to year of surgery, sex, age, body mass index (BMI), tumor size, mitotic rates and recurrence risk. After PSW, 438 patients consisting of 213 laparoscopic (L group) and 225 open surgery (O group) patients were enrolled. After PSW, the following measures in the L group were superior to those in the O group: median operative time [interquartile range (IQR)]: 100.0 (64.5−141.5)vs. 149.0 (104.0−197.5) min, P<0.001; median blood loss (IQR): 30.0 (10.0−50.0)vs. 50.0 (20.0−100.0) mL, P=0.002; median time to liquid intake (IQR): 3.0 (2.0−4.0)vs. 4.0 (3.0−5.0) d, P<0.001; median hospital stay (IQR): 6.0 (4.0−8.0)vs. 7.0 (5.0−12.0) d, P<0.001; and postoperative complications (10.3%vs. 22.7%, P=0.001). The median follow-up was 55 (range, 2−153) months in the entire cohort. No significant differences were detected in either relapse-free survival (RFS) [hazard ratio (HR): 0.372, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.072−1.910, P=0.236) or overall survival (OS) (HR: 0.400, 95% CI: 0.119−1.343, P=0.138) between the two groups.
Conclusions Laparoscopic surgery for EGJ-GIST is associated with the advantages of shorter operative time, reduced blood loss, shorter time to liquid intake, and shorter length of stay, all without compromising postoperative outcomes and long-term survival.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Robotic wedge resection for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) located in the stomach offers remarkable advantages, especially for lesions in unfavorable places. Although promising, long-term oncological results associated with this surgical procedure are poorly represented in literature. We present our experience of robotic wedge resection with gastrotomy for challenging gastric GISTs, in terms of both surgical outcomes and long-term oncological results. Methods: From April 2014 to February 2020, all consecutive patients affected by unfavorably located gastric GISTs (based on the Privette/Al-Thani classification system) underwent robotic wedge resection. Clinicopathological, surgical, and long-term oncological results were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Seventeen patients underwent full-thickness gastric wedge resection with primary robot-sewn closure of the defect. In 64.7% of cases, the lesion was ≥5 cm in diameter. No conversion nor tumor rupture were recorded and complete R0 resection was achieved in all cases. Median hospital stay was 5 days (range 3-18). At a median follow-up of 46 months (range 7-67), the disease-free survival rate and the overall survival rate were 94.1% and 82.3%, respectively. Conclusions: Robotic wedge resection with gastrotomy and robotic-sewn suture is a safe and feasible procedure for GISTs located in unfavorable anatomic positions, without compromising oncological outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis comparing the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic versus open resection for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) larger than 5 cm. METHOD We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Embase for relevant articles. Randomized and nonrandomized clinical trials were identified and included in this study. Searching for related articles on large GIST (>5 cm) for laparoscopic resection (laparoscopic group [LAPG]) and open resection (open group [OG]), RevMan 5.3 was used for data analysis, comparing 2 groups of operation time, intraoperative blood loss, complications, length of hospital stay, recurrence rate, disease-free survival, and overall survival. RESULTS Seven studies including 440 patients were identified for the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis revealed that LAPG had less bleeding, shorter postoperative hospital stay, and a better 5-year disease-free survival. There was no significant difference between LAPG and OG in operation time, postoperative complications, recurrence rate, and overall survival. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic resection of large (>5 cm) GIST is safe and feasible and has the advantages of less intraoperative blood loss and fast postoperative recovery, with a good outcome in the recent oncology.

Di Buono G, Maienza E, Buscemi S, Bonventre G, Romano G, Agrusa A. Combined endo-laparoscopic treatment of large gastrointestinal stromal tumor of the stomach: Report of a case and literature review. Int J Surg Case Rep 2020; 77S:S79-S84. [PMID: 32972889 PMCID: PMC7876734 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2020.09.053] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2020] [Revised: 09/05/2020] [Accepted: 09/05/2020] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
We report a case of 75-year-old Caucasian men with unknown voluminous gastric GIST, who came to our attention complaining melena. We decided to perform a laparoscopic-endoscopic combined surgical approach. Intraoperative endoscopy identified gastric GIST and confirmed the submucosal origin and the integrity of the capsule. A 10 cm laparoscopic gastrotomy was carried out along the gastric found in order to realize a laparo-endoscopic rendez-vous technique. Laparoscopy has rapidly become a preferable approach for gastric GISTs surgical treatment. The magnified view and the lesser invasiveness of laparoscopic technique allow the surgeon to perform a more meticulous dissection, preventing unexpected bleeding and causing less muscular trauma and less bowel manipulation. All these favourable short-term outcomes associated with laparoscopy do not compromise oncologic results.
Introduction Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are the most common malignant subepithelial lesions of gastrointestinal tract, originating from Cajal’s cells and characterized by the over expression of tyrosine kinase receptor C-KIT. The prognosis of this disease is associated with tumour size and mitotic index. Standard treatment of a GIST with no metastasis is surgical resection. Presentation of case We report a case of a 75-year-old Caucasian man with unknown voluminous gastric GIST, who came to our attention complaining black stool. We decided to perform a laparoscopic-endoscopic combined surgical approach. Intraoperative gastroscopy identified the gastric GIST and confirmed the submucosal origin and the integrity of the tumor capsule. A 10 cm laparoscopic gastrotomy was carried out along the gastric fundus in order to realize a laparo-endoscopic rendez-vous procedure. Discussion Laparoscopic approach is feasible and safe for Gastric GIST both in elective and urgent settings. Even for lesions greater than 5 cm, laparoscopy shows a recurrence rate similar to open surgery when radical resection are performed. An important point to take in consideration is surgical team experience, which seems to be one of the most important factors reducing the incidence of operative complications with better long-term outcomes, both postoperative and oncological. Conclusion Mini-invasive approaches for gastric GIST are safe and feasible. The combined approach both laparoscopic and endoscopic has shown to be an effective technique and it may allow a better exposure of the tumour which ensure a radical resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The best surgical approach to rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is still debated, and both nonanatomic rectal resection (NARR) and anatomic rectal resection (ARR) are applied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and oncological outcomes of NARR and ARR for rectal GISTs (R-GISTs). METHODS Through a large French multicentre retrospective study, 35 patients were treated for R-GIST between 2001 and 2013. Patients who underwent NARR and ARR were compared. RESULTS There were 23 (65.7%) patients in group ARR and 12 (34.3%) in group NARR. Significantly more patients in the group with ARR had a neoadjuvant treatment (86%) with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) (imatinib) compared to those with NARR (25%) (p < .01). The median preoperative tumor size was significantly different between the groups without and with neoadjuvant TKI: 30 ± 23 mm versus 64 ± 44.4 mm, respectively (p < .001). Overall postoperative morbidity was 20% (n = 7) (26% for ARR vs. 8% for NARR; p = .4). After a median follow-up of 60.2 (3.2-164.3) months, the 5-year disease-free survival rates were 79.5% (confidence interval [CI] 95%: 54-100) for the NARR group and 68% (CI 95%: 46.4-89.7) for the ARR group (p = .697), respectively. CONCLUSION The use of NARR for small R-GIST's does not seem to impair the oncological prognosis.

Abstract
Purpose The surgical or endoscopic resection is the current treatment modality for 2–5 cm gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). However, evidence is lacking as to which treatment modality is better. Our objective is to provide a new reference for the standardization of the treatment of 2–5 cm gastric GISTs. Patients and Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 177 patients who underwent resection for 2–5cm gastric GISTs between January 2007 and July 2019 at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University. The cases were divided into surgical group (n=118) and endoscopic group (n=59). The clinical data, pathological and genetic characteristics, short- and long-term outcomes were compared. Results Symptoms showed more obvious in the surgical group including abdominal pain and bleeding. In the endoscopic group, tumor size was smaller (p<0.001), and risk classification was lower (p<0.001). Patients in the endoscopic group had shorter anal exhaust time (p<0.001) and lesser hospital cost (p<0.001). However, the incidence rate of complications (25.42 vs 4.20%; p<0.001) and reoperation (22.03 vs 0.00%; p<0.001) in the endoscopic group was relatively higher than these in the surgical group. There was no significant difference in recurrence-free survival or overall survival between two groups. Conclusion Gastric GISTs of 2–5cm may be suitable to select laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the first choice for the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). With the development of new instruments and techniques, the popularity of laparoscopic resection of GISTs has increased rapidly. Previous studies on the advantages of laparoscopic resection over open surgery are generally limited by methodology or data capacity. This study evaluated the efficacy of laparoscopic resection and open surgery in gastric GISTs using the propensity score matching (PSM) method. METHODS Between January 2005 and December 2017, 1027 patients were diagnosed with primary GIST at our institution. Among them, 548 patients were enrolled in this study. Standard demographic and clinicopathological data were collected from our database. Selection bias was eliminated using the PSM methods. RESULTS After PSM, 256 cases involved in the comparison (128 laparoscopic (LAP) vs. 128 open surgery (OPEN)) were randomly matched (1:1) by age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, year of surgery, tumor location, tumor size, mitotic rate, and treatment with adjuvant tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The LAP group was superior to the OPEN group in blood loss (χ2 = 6.048, P = 0.049), time to first flatus (49.41 ± 7.56 vs. 71.31 ± 4.87 h, P < 0.001), and hospital stay (10.21 ± 6.05 vs. 12.56 ± 5.43 days, P = 0.001). No significant differences were seen in either the relapse-free survival or overall survival between the LAP and OPEN groups. In tumors located in favorable locations, the LAP group showed less blood loss (P = 0.008) and less multivisceral resection (17.8% vs. 5.5%, P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Laparoscopic resection for gastric GISTs is associated with improved surgical outcomes and postoperative courses and comparable oncological outcomes, regardless of favorable or unfavorable tumor location.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are rare mesenchymal tumors, most commonly arising in the stomach. Surgical resection remains the mainstay of cure, and can often be accomplished laparoscopically. Tumor size and location guide selection of appropriate resection technique. METHODS A retrospective review of all patients undergoing surgery at a single academic center between 2000 and 2018. Comparisons and descriptive statistics performed using student's t test and χ2 test. RESULTS 77 patients underwent resection for gastric GIST, 53 (68%) laparoscopic. Patients undergoing open operations had significantly larger tumors (4 cm vs 7 cm, p < 0.001). Operative time was not significantly different between the two groups (117 min vs 104 min, p = 0.26). Median length of stay was significantly shorter for laparoscopic resection, and postoperative complication rate was lower. A review of the operative notes revealed four types of resection: non-anatomic stapled wedge resection, resection of a full-thickness "disk" of stomach around the tumor with primary closure, formal partial gastrectomy with reconstruction, and laparoscopic transgastric (endoluminal) resection. CONCLUSION Non-anatomic resection (wedge or disk) is most feasible for tumors on the greater curve or gastric body, far enough from the pylorus and gastroesophageal junction to avoid narrowing inflow or outflow. A partial gastrectomy may be required for large tumors or those encroaching on the esophagus or pylorus. For small intraluminal tumors, a laparoscopic transgastric approach is ideal. This review of the technical details of each type of resection can aid in selecting the ideal approach for difficult tumors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To present the technique for and early results of laparoscopic intragastric resection (LIGR). BACKGROUND Treatment of confirmed or suspected submucosal gastric malignancies relies on clear margin resection, for which minimally invasive surgery is widely accepted. However, resection in some localization remains challenging. METHODS We present the steps of LIGR for gastric submucosal tumors (GSMTs). We report the results of LIGR in consecutive patients operated at 2 institutions, including intraoperative, pathologic, 30-day major morbidity and mortality characteristics. RESULTS After laparoscopic access to the abdominal cavity, cuffed gastric ports are placed to approximate the anterior gastric wall to the abdominal wall. A pneumogastrum is created. The tumor is resected in the submucosal plane and the deficit closed with intragastric suturing. Specimen extraction is performed perorally or through a gastrotomy site. In 8 proximal intraluminal GSMTs with median size of 3.1 cm (range: 1.8-6.0 cm), median operative time was 167.5 minutes (range: 120-300 mins). There was no major morbidity and no mortality. All resections were R0. CONCLUSIONS We illustrate the technique of a novel, feasible, and safe minimally invasive approach to GSMTs. LIGR is an alternative to resect challenging GSMTs by limiting surgical invasiveness and preserving gastrointestinal function.

Abstract
PURPOSE Few studies of robotic gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) resection have been conducted. This study was aimed to evaluate the robotic gastrotomy with intracorporeal suture for patients with GISTs located at cardia and subcardiac region. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2014 to August 2016, 11 patients with GISTs located at cardia and subcardiac region underwent robotic gastrotomy with intracorporeal suture. Data of these patients were collected. RESULTS The mean operative time was 82.7 minutes and the mean blood loss was 30.0 mL. No complication was reported. The postoperative length of stay was 3.3 days. On postoperative day 14, inflammation recovered to preoperative level. On postoperative month 6, the nutritional status was similar to that before the surgery. After 25.5 months follow-up, all patients survived with no recurrence or metastasis. CONCLUSIONS Robotic gastrotomy with intracorporeal suture for patients with GISTs located at cardia and subcardiac region is safe and feasible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In general, laparoscopic resection for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) >5 cm is not recommended. However, there is a lack of evidence to support this recommendation. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study included 108 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for gastric GISTs. Of the 108 patients, 23 had GISTs>5 cm. The aim of this study is to evaluate the oncological safety of laparoscopic surgery for large gastric GISTs. In addition, we performed a rapid systematic review of laparoscopic surgery for large gastric GISTs. RESULTS In our cases, all patients were performed R0 resection without capsular rupture and surgical margins were negative on pathologic examination. In all studies, en bloc resection was achieved without capsular rupture in all patients. The average positive surgical margins rate was 1.6% in total reports. CONCLUSIONS The laparoscopic approach for large gastric GISTs>5 cm has been proposed as safe when performed by experienced surgeons.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) most commonly originate from the stomach. Their treatment is dependent on size and whether they are symptomatic. Curative treatment requires surgery, which may be preceded by neoadjuvant imatinib if it is felt that this will aid in achieving clear (R0) resection margins. The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes from patients that underwent a "local" organ-preserving operation, with those that required a more radical resection, and the influences on selecting a more radical resection. A retrospective review of patients undergoing surgery for symptomatic gastric GISTs from a single institution over 9 years was carried out. Patients were divided into three cohorts dependent on whether they had a "local" resection, "anatomical" resection, or "extended" resection. 71 patients were included. Overall, 5-year survival was 92%. Operating time, blood loss, and length of stay were significantly lower in the group undergoing local resection (p < 0.05). Tumour size was also smaller in the local group (median 4 cm versus 5 cm p < 0.05). Tumour location also influenced the type of surgery performed, with tumours at the cardia, gastroesophageal junction, and antrum all having "anatomical" resections. Lymphadenectomy did not appear to impact on outcomes. These findings indicate that local excision, where possible, does not impair oncological outcomes.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors located in the alimentary tract. Its usual manifestation is gastrointestinal bleeding. However, small asymptomatic lesions are frequently detected as incidental finding. Characteristically, most GISTs (> 95%) are positive for the KIT protein (CD117) by IHC staining and approximately 80%-90% of GISTs carry a mutation in the c-KIT or PDGFRA genes. Mutational analysis should be performed when planning adjuvant and neoadjuvant therapy, due to its possible resistance to conventional treatment. The arise of tyrosine kinase inhibitor has supposed a revolution in GISTs treatment being useful as adjuvant, neoadjuvant or recurrence disease treatment. That is why a multidisciplinary approach to this disease is required. The correct characterization of the tumor at diagnosis (the diagnosis of recurrences and the evaluation of the response to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors) is fundamental for facing these tumors and requires specialized Endoscopist, Radiologists and Nuclear Medicine Physician. Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment for suspected resectable GIST. In the case of high risk GISTs, surgery plus adjuvant Imatinib-Mesylate for 3 years is the standard treatment. Neoadjuvant imatinib-mesylate should be considered to shrink the tumor in case of locally advanced primary or recurrence disease, unresectable or potentially resectable metastasic tumors, and potentially resectable disease in complex anatomic locations to decrease the related morbidity. In the case of Metastatic GIST under Neoadjuvant treatment, when there are complete response, stable disease or limited disease progression, complete cytoreductive surgery could be a therapeutic option if feasible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic resection (LAP) for small bowel gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) is not as common as for stomach. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LAP for small bowel GISTs with systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS The Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, and PubMed databases before December 2016 were comprehensively searched to retrieve comparative trials of LAP and conventional open resection (OPEN) for GISTs of small bowel with a relevance of review object. These researches reported intraoperative and postoperative clinical course (operation time, blood loss, time to first flatus and oral intake, hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality), oncologic outcomes, and long-term survival status. RESULTS Six studies involving 391 patients were identified. Compared to OPEN, LAP had associated with a shorter operation time (weighted mean difference [WMD] = -27.97 min, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -49.40--6.54, P < 0.01); less intraoperative blood loss (WMD = -0.72 ml; 95% CI: -1.30--0.13, P = 0.02); earlier time to flatus (WMD = -0.83 day; 95% CI: -1.44--0.22, P < 0.01); earlier time to restart oral intake (WMD = -1.95 days; 95% CI: -3.31--0.60, P < 0.01); shorter hospital stay (WMD = -3.00 days; 95% CI: -4.87--1.13, P < 0.01); and a decrease in overall complications (risk ratio = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.33-0.97, P = 0.04). In addition, the tumor recurrence and long-term survival rate showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups of patients. CONCLUSIONS LAP for small bowel GISTs is a safe and feasible procedure with shorter operation time, less blood loss, less overall complications, and quicker recovery. Besides, tumor recurrence and the long-term survival rate are similar to open approach. Because of the limitations of this study, methodologically high-quality studies are needed for certain appraisal.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are relatively common mesenchymal tumors. They originate from the wall of hollow viscera and may be found in any part of the digestive tract. The prognosis of patients with stromal tumors depends on various risk factors, including size, location, presence of mitotic figures, and tumor rupture. Emergency surgery is often required for stromal tumors with hemorrhage. The current literature suggests that stromal tumor hemorrhage indicates poor prognosis. Although the optimal treatment options for hemorrhagic GISTs are based on surgical experience, there remains controversy with regard to optimum postoperative management as well as the classification of malignant potential. This article reviews the biological characteristics, diagnostic features, prognostic factors, treatment, and postoperative management of GISTs with hemorrhage.

Abstract
PURPOSE Surgery remains the mainstay of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) treatment. The aim of our study was to compare postoperative outcomes and long term oncologic results of GISTs resection. An analysis of laparoscopic versus open surgery for GISTs and a subgroup analysis of lesions larger than 5 cm were realized. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 2005 and December 2014, 143 patients with primary GISTs were treated with radical resection in two tertiary centers. Eight patients with metastatic disease were excluded. The remaining patients were assigned to 2 groups: laparoscopy and open surgery. A separate analysis of tumors larger than 5 cm was realized for the laparoscopy group. Long-term follow-up was used to analyze the oncologic and surgical results. Relevant clinical variables were evaluated using univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS With similar oncological outcomes(p = 0.09) and morbidity(p = 0.56), laparoscopy compared to open surgery significantly reduced length of hospitalization (p = 0.01). For lesions >5 cm laparoscopic resection is associated with similar short-term outcomes with resection for small tumors without compromising oncological outcomes (p = 0.89). For all patients, the probability of remaining disease free at 3 years, and 5 years was 97, 6% and 95%, respectively. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic resection is a technically and oncologically safe and feasible approach for GISTs compared with open resection. Resection of lesions superior of 5 cm by laparoscopy has efficacy and recurrence rates similar to open surgical controls. Large tumor resection should only be attempted by surgeons with a large experience with minimally invasive surgery in order to avoid operative complications and unfavorable long term outcome.

Abstract
Minimally invasive surgery has been increasingly performed for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). In this review we discuss and summarize the current evidence on minimally invasive surgery for gastric GISTs. Laparoscopic resection for gastric GIST has been consistently shown to be associated with superior perioperative outcomes with no compromise in oncological outcomes when compared to open resection in numerous retrospective case-control studies. It has also been shown to be safe and feasible for large tumors or tumors located in unfavorable sites. However, to date, there remains a lack of level 1 evidence from prospective randomized control trials in support of laparoscopic resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic versus open resection for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) larger than 5 cm are limited. Therefore, the aim of this meta-analysis was to compared laparoscopic and open resection for gastric GISTs larger than 5 cm. METHODS We perform a literature search on PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Embase. Review Manage version 5.1 (RevMan 5.1) was used for data analysis. The GRADE profiler software (version 3.6) was used to estimate the level of evidence. RESULTS A total of 6 observational studies and one unpublished retrospective cohort study met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis: 203 patients in LAP and 214 patients in OPEN group. The pooled result revealed that laparoscopic resection was associated with a same operative time (WMD = -0.87 min; 95% CI: -47.50 to 47.75; P = 0.97), intraoperative blood loss (WMD = -34.38 ml; 95% CI: -79.60 to 10.84; P = 0.14), overall complications (RR = 0.65; 95% CI: 0.38 to 1.12; P = 0.12), better 5-year disease-free survival (HR = 0.40; 95% CI: 0.17 to 0.91; P = 0.03) and overall survival (HR = 0.09; 95% CI: 0.02 to 0.40; P = 0.002) compared with open resection. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic resection is a technically and oncologically safe and feasible approach for large-sized gastric GISTs (≥ 5 cm) compared to open resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The technical feasibility and oncological safety of laparoscopic surgery for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) larger than 5 cm has not been adequately studied. Therefore, we performed this retrospective study to investigate the clinical outcomes of gastric GIST patients treated with laparoscopic surgery compared with those who underwent open surgery. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the outcomes of 48 consecutive patients who underwent gastric resection for gastric GISTs larger than 5 cm. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the surgery performed: the laparoscopic resection group (LAPG) and the open resection group (OG). We assessed all available patient data, including baseline information, tumor characteristics, surgical outcomes, pathological results, postoperative complications, and long-term patient survival. RESULTS The 2 groups had similar baseline data. No differences were found in tumor size, location, mitotic count, and risk grade according to Fletcher's risk classification. The LAPG was superior to the OG in blood loss, time to first flatus, time to oral intake, and length of postoperative hospital stay. Perioperative complications, recurrence rate, and long-term survival, however, did not differ significantly between the groups. The mean operation time in the LAPG was 28 minutes longer than that in the OG. CONCLUSIONS In patients with primary gastric GISTs larger than 5 cm, laparoscopic resection is a technically feasible and oncologically safe surgery when performed by experienced surgeons.

Abstract
AIM To compare the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic (LR) vs open resection (OR) for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (gGISTs).
METHODS In total, 301 consecutive patients undergoing LR or OR for pathologically confirmed gGISTs from 2005 to 2014 were enrolled in this retrospective study. After exclusion of 77 patients, 224 eligible patients were enrolled (122 undergoing LR and 102 undergoing OR). The demographic, clinicopathologic, and survival data of all patients were collected. The intraoperative, postoperative, and long-term oncologic outcomes were compared between the LR and OR groups following the propensity score matching to balance the measured covariates between the two groups.
RESULTS After 1:1 propensity score matching for the set of covariates including age, sex, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiology score, tumor location, tumor size, surgical procedures, mitotic count, and risk stratification, 80 patients in each group were included in the final analysis. The baseline parameters of the two groups were comparable after matching. The LR group was significantly superior to the OR group with respect to the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative first flatus, time to oral intake, and postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.05). No differences in perioperative blood transfusion or the incidence of postoperative complications were observed between the two groups (P > 0.05). No significant difference was found in postoperative adjuvant therapy (P = 0.587). The mean follow-up time was 35.30 ± 26.02 (range, 4-102) mo in the LR group and 40.99 ± 25.07 (range, 4-122) mo in the OR group with no significant difference (P = 0.161). Survival analysis showed no significant difference in the disease-free survival time or overall survival time between the two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION Laparoscopic surgery for gGISTs is superior to open surgery with respect to intraoperative parameters and postoperative outcomes without compromising long-term oncological outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the short-term and oncologic outcomes of patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergoing laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP). METHODS Consecutive cases of distal pancreatectomy (DP) (n = 422) were reviewed at a single high-volume institution over a 10-year period (2005-2014). Inclusion criteria consisted of any patient with PDAC by surgical pathology. Ninety-day outcomes were monitored through a prospectively maintained pancreatic resection database. The Social Security Death Index was used for 5-year survival. Two-way statistical analyses were used to compare categories; variance was reported with standard error of the mean; * indicates P value <0.05. RESULTS Seventy-nine patients underwent DP for PDAC. Thirty-three underwent LDP and 46 ODP. There were no statistical differences in demographics, BMI, and ASA classification. Intraoperative and surgical pathology variables were comparable for LDP versus ODP: operative time (3.9 ± 0.2 vs. 4.2 ± 0.2 h), duct size, gland texture, stump closure, tumor size (3.3 ± 0.3 vs. 4.0 ± 0.4 cm), lymph node harvest (14.5 ± 1.1 vs. 17.5 ± 1.2), tumor stage (see table), and negative surgical margins (77 vs. 87%). Patients who underwent LDP experienced lower blood loss (310 ± 68 vs. 597 ± 95 ml; P = 0.016*) and required fewer transfusions (0 vs. 13; P = 0.0008*). Patients who underwent LDP had fewer positive lymph nodes (0.8 ± 0.2 vs. 1.6 ± 0.3; P = 0.04*) and a lower incidence of type C pancreatic fistula (0 vs. 13%; P = 0.03*). Median follow-up for all patients was 11.4 months. Long-term oncologic outcomes revealed similar outcomes including distant or local recurrence (30 vs. 52%; P = 0.05) and median survival (18 vs. 15 months), as well as 1-year (73 vs. 59%), 3-year (22 vs. 21%), and 5-year (20 vs. 15%) survival for LDP and ODP, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results of this series suggest that LDP is a safe surgical approach that is comparable from an oncologic standpoint to ODP for the management of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Background This meta-analysis compared laparoscopic surgery (LAP) and open resection (OPEN) for the treatment of gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) with regard to feasibility and safety. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science for studies published before March 2016 comparing the LAP and OPEN procedures for GISTs. RevMan 5.1 software was used for the meta-analysis. Results In total, 28 studies met the inclusion criteria for the meta-analysis. The mean tumor sizes in the OPEN and LAP groups were 4.54 and 5.67 cm. Compared with the OPEN patients, the LAP patients experienced shorter surgical times (P = 0.05), less blood loss (P<0.01), earlier time to flatus (P<0.01) and an oral diet (P<0.01), and shorter hospital stays (P<0.01). The LAP patients also exhibited a decrease in overall complications (P<0.01). In addition, regarding the subgroup of larger GISTs (>5 cm), the present study did not report significant differences in operation time (P = 0.93), postoperative complications (P = 0.30), or recurrence rate (P = 0.61) between the two groups, though LAP was associated with favorable results regarding blood loss (P = 0.03) and hospital stay (P<0.01). Conclusions Compared with the OPEN procedure, the LAP procedure is associated with preferable short-term postoperative outcomes and does not compromise long-term oncological outcomes. For gastric GISTs >5 cm, no significant difference was detected between LAP and OPEN if patient selection and intraoperative decisions were carefully considered.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract. The stomach is the most common site of origin. Management of GISTs changed after the introduction of molecularly targeted therapies. Although the only potentially curative treatment of resectable primary GISTs is surgery, recurrence is common. Patients with primary GISTs at intermediate or high risk of recurrence should receive imatinib postoperatively. Imatinib is also first-line therapy for advanced disease. Cytoreductive surgery might be considered in advanced GIST for patients with stable/responding disease or limited focal progression on tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy. GIST requires multidisciplinary management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The first International conference on Minimally Invasive Pancreas Resection was arranged in conjunction with the annual meeting of the International Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (IHPBA), in Sao Paulo, Brazil on April 19th 2016. The presented evidence and outcomes resulting from the session for minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) is summarized and addressed perioperative outcome, the outcome for cancer and patient selection for the procedure. METHODS A literature search was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines to compare MIDP and open distal pancreatectomy. Patient selection was discussed based on plenary talks, panel discussions and a worldwide survey on MIDP. RESULTS Of 582 studies, 52 (40 observational and 12 case-matched) were included in the assessment for outcome for LDP (n = 5023) vs. ODP (n = 16,306) whereas 16 observational comparative studies were identified for cancer outcome. No randomized trials were identified. MIDP resulted in similar outcome to ODP with a tendency for lower blood loss and shorter hospital stay in the MIDP group. DISCUSSION Available evidence for comparison of MIDP to ODP is weak, although the number of studies is high. Observed outcomes of MIDP are promising. In the absence of randomized control trials, an international registry should be established.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic wedge resection (LWR) for small gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) is now widely accepted, but its application for large GISTs remains controversial. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and safety of LWR for suspected large (≥5 cm) gastric GISTs. METHODS Retrospective review of 82 consecutive patients who underwent attempted LWR for suspected gastric GIST. LWR for large (≥5 cm) (n = 23) tumors was compared with LWR for small (<5 cm) tumors (n = 59). The 23 patients with LWR for large tumors were also compared to 36 consecutive patients who underwent open wedge resection (OWR) for large tumors. RESULTS Comparison between patients who underwent LWR for large versus small tumors demonstrated that resection of large tumors was associated with a longer operating time. There was no difference in other perioperative outcomes, and oncological outcomes such as frequency of close margins (≤1 mm) and recurrence-free survival. Comparison between patients who underwent LWR versus OWR for large tumors showed that LWR was associated with decreased median time to fluid or solid diet, shorter postoperative stay but longer operating times. There was no difference in oncological outcomes. CONCLUSION LWR for suspected large gastric GIST is feasible and safe. It is associated with similar short-term outcomes with LWR for small tumors and favorable short-term outcomes over OWR for large tumors without compromising on oncological outcomes.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) of the stomach presenting as an intra-abdominal abscess are extremely rare. We herein report a case that underwent successful laparoscopic resection of gastric GIST presenting with an intra-abdominal abscess. A 70-year-old man presented with a 3-day history of acute upper abdominal pain with a fever. Laboratory data showed an elevated white blood cell count and C-reactive protein level. A CT scan revealed a mass of mixed solid and fluid components, measuring 5.5 cm, in the adjacent lesser curvature of the stomach. He was diagnosed as having an intra-abdominal abscess, and antibiotic therapy was administered. Consequently, his symptoms were relieved and a CT scan on the 7th day showed that the mass reduced and became homogenous. According to the results of a fine-needle aspiration biopsy, the tumor was suspected to be a GIST. Laparoscopic surgery with the 5-port approach was performed. The tumor existed in the lesser curvature of the stomach, and was excised en bloc with the omentum and gastric wall by wedge resection. The tumor measured 3.0 cm in diameter and originated from the serosal layer of the stomach. Histological findings showed spindle cells with a stromal growth pattern that was positive for c-kit (CD 117) and CD 34. The postoperative course was uneventful, and no recurrence has been noted in the 2 years since the operation. This is the first report of a case with gastric GIST with an intra-abdominal abscess that was successfully treated by laparoscopic surgery.
