Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic/robotic distal gastrectomy (LDG/RDG) as a treatment for early gastric cancer has become increasingly and widely accepted for its minimal invasiveness and proportionate outcomes. Over the years, in addition to the LDG/RDG technique and the lymphadenectomy and gastrectomy procedures, various reconstruction methods have been developed and further improved upon. In particular, the number of minimally invasive intracorporeal anastomosis reconstruction techniques has been increasing. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of 445 patients with gastric cancer who underwent reconstruction following LDG/RDG via either trapezoidal-shaped gastroduodenostomy (TAPESTRY; n=126) or delta-shaped anastomosis (DSA; n=319) at our hospital between April 2012 and May 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Short-term surgical outcomes, including the operation time, blood loss, length of hospital stay, and complications, were compared between the 2 groups. Anastomosis-related complications, namely leakage, bleeding, stricture, and delayed gastric emptying, were monitored and graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification. RESULTS All operations were either performed or supervised by qualified surgeons. Patients' characteristics in the TAPESTRY group and the DSA group were biased in terms of the surgical approach, but they were well-balanced after propensity score matching. Overall anastomosis-related complications (Clavien-Dindo grade II or above) within 30 days after surgery in the TAPESTRY group were comparable with those in the DSA group, either all patients (1.5% vs. 5.0%, P=0.115) or after propensity score-matching analysis (2.1% vs. 6.5%, P=0.134). There were no records of reoperation or mortality during hospitalization in either group. CONCLUSIONS TAPESTRY was performed safely, with a low rate of anastomosis-related complications. These findings suggest that trapezoidal-shaped gastroduodenostomy could be a feasible option for reconstruction in patients undergoing LDG/RDG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We invented a simple and secure method of intracorporeal gastroduodenostomy, the delta-shaped anastomosis (DA), using endoscopic linear stapler only and standardized the DA procedure by resecting two-thirds of the stomach based on the anatomical landmarks. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the standardized DA as the standard reconstruction procedure after a laparoscopic distal gastrectomy assessing functional outcomes including postoperative complications, body weight loss, nutritional status, and endoscopic findings. METHODS The medical records of 349 patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy from April 2011 to December 2017 at our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Functional outcomes were assessed according to nutritional status and endoscopic findings. RESULTS The operation time was shorter and complication rate was lower in the standardized DA than those in Billroth-II (BII) and Roux-en-Y (RY). The body weight loss in DA was 10% 1 year postoperatively and remained stable during the follow-up period, which showed no significant difference. The endoscopic findings showed the ratio of residual food in DA was lower than that in RY (DA:RY = 13.3%:13.6% and 8.4%:33.3% at 1 and 3 years postoperatively, respectively). Severe gastritis was extremely rare in DA (6.7% at 1 year and 15.6% at 3 years postoperatively). Bile reflux was more often found in DA than RY (DA:RY = 19.9%:4.8% and 26.6%:0% at 1 and 3 years postoperatively, respectively). Reflux esophagitis was found 10% of DA only. CONCLUSIONS Functional outcomes of the standardized DA were satisfactory and feasible. Our intracorporeal Billroth-I reconstruction, by resecting two-thirds of the stomach, can be one of the standard reconstruction methods after a laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no consensus regarding which reconstruction methods are superior after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG). This study compared four reconstruction methods after LDG for gastric cancer. METHODS Literature in EMBASE, PubMed, and the Cochrane Library was screened to compare Billroth I (B-I), Billroth II (B-II), Roux-en-Y (RY), and uncut Roux-en-Y (URY) anastomoses after LDG for gastric cancer. A Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) was conducted to compare these methods. RESULTS Eighteen studies involving 4347 patients were eligible for our NMA. The operative time in RY anastomosis was longer than that in B-I and B-II anastomoses. Blood loss and risk of gastrointestinal motility dysfunction were greater with RY anastomosis than with URY or B-I anastomosis. Furthermore, URY anastomosis was superior to the other 3 reconstruction methods for preventing food residue. For remnant gastritis, RY anastomosis was significantly superior to B-I and B-II anastomoses, whereas URY anastomosis was significantly superior to B-II anastomosis. In addition, RY and URY anastomoses were better than B-I and B-II anastomoses for preventing bile reflux. CONCLUSIONS URY anastomosis tended to be a more favorable reconstruction method after LDG due to its operative simplicity and reduced long-term complications.

Abstract
Introduction Totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) for gastric cancer has gradually gained popularity. However, the learning curve of TLDG is rarely reported. Aim To determine the learning curve of TLDG for gastric cancer. Material and methods We retrospectively reviewed and analyzed the medical records of 80 patients with gastric cancer who underwent TLDG with lymph node dissection from January 2016 to December 2017. We divided the patients into four groups based on when they underwent TLDG: group A (cases 1–20), group B (cases 21–40), group C (cases 41–60), and group D (cases 61–80). Comparative analyses of clinical data, including clinicopathologic characteristics, operative data, and postoperative course, were performed for these groups. Results No significant difference was observed between the groups in various clinicopathologic characteristics. Total operative time for group A (168.3 ±14.6 min) was significantly longer than for groups B (152.5 ±10.5 min), C (154.2 ±11.6 min), and D (155.3 ±10.8 min), but there was no significant difference between groups B, C, and D. Anastomosis time for group A (27.5 ±12.4 min) was significantly longer than for groups B (15.3 ±4.6 min), C (16.6 ±5.7 min), and D (15.4 ±4.5 min), but there was no significant difference between groups B, C, and D. Non-anastomosis time, estimated blood loss, retrieved lymph nodes, time to first flatus, time to first oral intake, and postoperative hospital stay and complications showed no difference between the four groups. Conclusions An experience of approximately 20 cases of TLDG was required to complete the learning curve.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the short-term outcomes of intracorporeal anastomosis during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy retrospectively at multiple institutions. PATIENTS AND METHODS We collected data of the patients who had undergone totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy at 4 institutions. All patients received an intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy. RESULTS Of the 215 patients evaluated, 147 underwent functional end-to-end anastomosis (FEEA) as the intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy (FEEA group), and 68 patients received a circular stapler anastomosis (Circular group). The rate of tumor invasion to the esophagus was significantly higher in the Circular group than in the FEEA group (33% vs. 6%, respectively; P<0.0001). Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that the circular stapler anastomosis and high preoperative BMI were statistically significant risk factors for postoperative leakage. However, the rates of complications and mortality were not significantly different between groups. CONSIDERATION Our results showed that each type of esophagojejunostomy is safe and feasible for patients with gastric cancer with acceptable morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy is one of the major treatments for early stage gastric cancer, particularly in the East Asia. In this method, extracorporeal anastomosis is performed via a small laparotomy wound, but excessive tissue traction may be encountered during the anastomotic procedure. Therefore, we developed an original procedure for extracorporeal Billroth-I reconstruction: end-to-end stapling gastroduodenostomy with complete double stapling technique. This procedure aims to reduce the problems related to maneuvers through a small laparotomy. METHODS An end-to-end anastomosis is constructed on the transection line using a circular stapler inserted from the distal end of the greater curvature of the remnant stomach. Short-term outcomes were reviewed in 218 consecutive patients who underwent complete double stapling technique reconstruction after laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy between 2002 and 2012. Findings from GI endoscopy were reviewed in 110 patients. RESULTS The mean operative time was 216 min, and mean blood loss was 163 mL. There was no conversion to the open surgery and no operative death. Eight patients (3.6%) had anastomosis-related postoperative complications. In follow-up endoscopic examinations 1 year after surgery, grade 3 or higher residual food was seen in 17.2% of patients. Gastritis extending to the entire remnant stomach was observed in 8.2% of patients, and grade 3 gastritis was seen in 2.7%. Los Angeles classification grade A or higher reflux esophagitis was found in 10.9%. CONCLUSIONS Billroth-I reconstruction by the complete double stapling technique is a safe and feasible procedure. This method provides satisfactory short-term outcomes, including the incidence of reflex remnant gastritis and esophagitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy has become an established minimally invasive treatment for gastric cancer since it was first reported in 1994. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively assessed the clinical outcomes of 248 patients who had undergone open distal gastrectomy (ODG), laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG), and totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) for gastric cancer. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS TLDG showed superiority in terms of blood loss, reconstruction options, and postoperative recovery compared with ODG and LADG. Especially, the mean operating time in the TLDG group was significantly shorter than that of the LADG group (P=0.003). Book-binding technique used in TLDG was one of the reasons of this result. The only inferior aspect of TLDG was the longer operating time compared with ODG; TLDG had no disadvantages compared with LADG. Although the operating time and long-term outcome remain problems, we suggest that TLDG has the potential to serve as an optimal operative method.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Delta-shaped anastomosis has been recognized as a method of intracorporeal Billroth I anastomosis in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy. However, the technical aspects and outcomes of the delta-shaped anastomosis in totally robotic distal gastrectomy have never been reported. METHODS A single-institutional, non-randomized, retrospective study was performed between 2009 and 2013. During the study period, 47 patients underwent robotic distal gastrectomy followed by robotic delta-shaped Billroth I reconstruction, and 165 patients underwent conventional laparoscopic distal gastrectomy followed by laparoscopic delta-shaped Billroth I reconstruction. After 64 were excluded because of insufficient intraoperative video, 43 patients in the robotic group and 105 patients in the laparoscopic group were enrolled in the study. Short-term outcomes were determined from medical records and full-length operative videos. RESULTS There were no significant differences between the robotic and laparoscopic groups in terms of morbidity (4.7% vs 3.8%), anastomosis-related complications (0% vs 1.0%), non-anastomosis-related complications (2.3% vs 0%), or systemic complications (2.3% vs 0%). Time for reconstruction did not vary between the robotic group (16.6 min [8.8-42.9 min]) and the laparoscopic group (15.8 min [7.2-41.0 min]). There was no mortality in this series. In the conventional group, the morbidity rate was 3.8%. The anastomosis-related complication rate was 1.0% in the conventional group. CONCLUSIONS Given the excellent short-term outcomes related to anastomosis, delta-shaped anastomosis after robotic distal gastrectomy was at least as feasible and safe as delta-shaped anastomosis after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare body composition changes of patients undergoing totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) with delta-shaped anastomosis (DSA) versus conventional laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (CLDG). METHODS Data from gastric cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for histologically proven gastric cancer in KNUMC from January 2013 to May 2014 were collected and reviewed. We examined 85 consecutive patients undergoing TLDG or CLDG: 41 patients underwent TLDG and 44 patients underwent CLDG. Body composition was assessed by segmental multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis. We compared the changes in nutritional parameters and body composition from preoperative status between the two groups at postoperative 6 and 12 months. RESULTS All of the postoperative changes in the body composition and nutritional indices were similar between the two groups with the exception of visceral fat areas (VFAs) and albumin levels. VFAs increased at 6 months postoperatively in the TLDG group and a significant difference was shown at 12 months postoperatively between the TLDG and CLDG groups (86.7 ± 22.8 and 74.7 ± 21.9 cm(2), respectively, P < 0.05). Postoperative albumin levels were higher in the TLDG group with statistical significance at 6 and 12 months after surgery (6 months, P = 0.028; 12 months, P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS The influence of TLDG with DSA on nutrition and body composition seemed comparable to those of CLDG. Six months postoperatively, VFAs and albumin levels were recovered in the TLDG group but not in the CLDG group. Thus, TLDG seems to be a novel surgical method.

Surg Endosc 2014; 29:2545-52. [PMID: 25427413 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-014-3966-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2014] [Accepted: 10/21/2014] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Delta-shaped anastomosis (DA) is a new Billroth I reconstruction technique using only a laparoscopic linear stapler under a totally laparoscopic approach. The present study compared the outcomes of DA with those of laparoscopic conventional Billroth I anastomosis (cBIA). METHODS A total of 138 and 100 patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with DA and cBIA, respectively, were selected. Clinicopathological data and short- and long-term outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The mean operating time in the DA group was similar to that in the cBIA group. Short-term outcomes, such as bowel function recovery, morbidity, and mortality, did not differ between the DA and cBIA groups. There were no significant differences in the 5-year disease-free and overall survival rates between the two groups. All nutritional indices (body weight change, albumin level, transferrin level, and total lymphocyte count) were similar between the two groups with the exception of a few points in the early follow-up period. Endoscopic evaluation using the Residual food, Gastritis, Bile reflux classification revealed relatively better gastritis findings in the DA group despite worse bile reflux for 5 postoperative years. The food amount was significantly larger in the DA group for 2 postoperative years. CONCLUSIONS The outcomes of DA were comparable to those of cBIA. DA is a recommendable reconstruction method, especially in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Abstract
Gastric cancer with peritoneal dissemination may be diagnosed as unresectable. More recently, as a result of progress in chemotherapy, some patients with peritoneal dissemination have exhibited extended survival. We report on our experience with three patients in whom induction chemotherapy allowed for totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG). All three patients were diagnosed as having advanced gastric cancer with peritoneal dissemination using staging laparoscopy. As induction chemotherapy, S-1 combined with cisplatin was administered to two patients and trastuzumab plus capecitabine combined with cisplatin to one patient. TLTG was performed in all patients and there were no postoperative complications. Adjuvant chemotherapy was initiated within 3 weeks after surgery in all three patients. Laparoscopic gastrectomy undertaken after induction chemotherapy was found to be effective and safe; this treatment has the potential to achieve good treatment outcomes in patients with stage IV gastric cancer.

Comparison of three different minimally invasive procedures of distal gastrectomy for Nonoverweight patients with T1N0-1 gastric cancer. Int Surg 2013; 98:259-65.

Abstract
Laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy has recently come to be a standard procedure for the treatment of early gastric cancer (1 - 5) in select patients. The minimal invasiveness associated with laparoscopic procedures for the resection of gastrointestinal cancer has been repeatedly explained in part by the short incision that is required. (6 - 11) We used two different approaches to perform distal gastrectomies for the resection of gastric cancer as minimally invasive alternatives to a standard laparoscopic approach prior to our surgical team's complete mastery of the skills required for laparoscopic oncological surgery for gastric cancer. (9 , 12) If the minimal invasiveness associated with laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy can be explained by the small incision, a gastrectomy via a small incision without the use of a pneumoperitoneum may provide a similar outcome in patients. However, to our knowledge, such a comparison has not been previously made. We compared the minimal invasiveness of three different approaches (minilaparotomy, minilaparotomy approach with laparoscopic assistance, and standard laparoscopic-assisted approach) to performing a distal gastrectomy for T1N0-1 gastric cancer in nonoverweight patients (body mass index, ≤ 25 kg/m(2)) performed within a limited study period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The technique of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) has been developed for gastric cancer, but its feasibility and surgical outcomes remain unclear. This is the first study comparing the early surgical outcomes of TLTG with those of conventional open total gastrectomy (OTG) for gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between January 2011 and December 2011, 139 patients underwent TLTG, and 207 patients underwent OTG for gastric cancer; surgical procedures were selected by means of preoperative diagnostic tests under T3N2M0. Clinicopathologic characteristics and early surgical outcomes in the two groups were compared retrospectively. RESULTS There were no significant difference in preoperative characteristics between the two groups, and the durations of surgery were not significantly different. However, TLTG was superior to OTG in terms of time to first flatus, time to commencement of soft diet, pain score (visual analog scale), need for analgesics, length of hospital stay, and overall postoperative complications (each P<.05). The median number of lymph nodes harvested was significantly higher in the TLTG group (37 versus 34; P=.039). Resection margins were negative in all patients. CONCLUSIONS TLTG should be considered as a safe and practicable alternative to OTG for the treatment of gastric cancer. Moreover, it is less invasive and results in faster recovery than OTG.
