Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic factors in T4b gastric cancer (GC) in order to improve future therapeutic strategies. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 43 patients with advanced GC who underwent surgery and were surgically or pathologically diagnosed with T4b GC. The overall survival (OS) rate of patients with T4b GC was analyzed, and univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify clinicopathological factors that were independently associated with OS. In addition, we assessed the relationship between postoperative chemotherapy and laboratory parameters 4 weeks post-surgery. RESULTS The proportion of patients with invasion of cancer in organs, including the pancreas, transverse colon, and liver, were 58.1%, 18.6%, and 14.0%, respectively. The proportion of patients who exhibited distant metastases was 44.2%, and R0 resection was achieved in 30.2% of patients. A total of 69.8% of patients underwent postoperative chemotherapy. The median survival rate was 12.3 months. Upon multivariate analysis, the presence of distant metastases (P = 0.01, HR; 3.48), the use of postoperative chemotherapy (P = 0.0004, HR; 0.12), and R0 resection (P < 0.0001, HR; 0.14) were significantly correlated with OS. Patients who did not undergo postoperative chemotherapy showed significantly higher levels of inflammatory parameters and lower levels of nutritional parameters 4 weeks after surgery than those who did. CONCLUSIONS We evaluated that the presence of distant metastases was significantly associated with a poor prognosis, and the use of postoperative chemotherapy and R0 resection was significantly associated with a better prognosis in patients with T4b GC. It would be more important for a T4b GC treatment to balance between therapeutic tolerance for postoperative chemotherapy and surgical therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Purpose The AJCC (the American Joint Committee on Cancer) ypTNM (post-neoadjuvant pathologic stage group) staging was established based on patients with lymphadenectomy scope less than D2 and did not include ypT0N0 patients with pathologically complete response (PCR). The purpose of this study was to construct a survival predictive model for gastric cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and gastrectomy combined with D2 lymphadenectomy. Patients and Methods The multicenter data of 838 gastric cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy and gastrectomy combined with D2 lymphadenectomy were analyzed retrospectively. These dual center patients were divided into training (n = 671, the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University) and validation (n = 167, Qingdao West Coast New Area Central Hospital) cohorts. Based on training cohort, univariate and multivariable COX regression analyses were performed to select the clinicopathological characteristics significantly correlating with overall survival and construct a nomogram. Based on training and validation cohorts, the distinguishing and calibrating capabilities of nomogram was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Harrell's concordance index (C-index), decision curve analysis (DCA) curve and calibration curve. Results Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), pathologic stage after neoadjuvant treatment: ypT and ypN stage, tumor regression grade (TRG) became independent variables intimately related to the prognosis and was used to construct nomograms of 3/5-year prognosis. The nomograms showed an accuracy in predicting OS (overall survival) rate, with area under the ROC curve (AUC) of 0.818 (95% CI = 0.753~0.883) and C-index of 0.801 (95% CI = 0.744~0.858) in validation cohort. Calibration curves showed satisfactory agreement between nomogram prediction and actual result, and DCA curves indicated the large positive net benefit and excellent clinical usefulness of nomogram. Conclusion This study successfully developed a nomogram to predict overall survival of gastric cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and gastrectomy combined with D2 lymphadenectomy, which might have excellent predictive performance and clinical application value.

Clinicopathological characteristics and treatment outcome of resectable gastric cancer patients with small para-aortic lymph node. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1131725. [PMID: 36923426 PMCID: PMC10009175 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1131725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Resectable gastric cancer (GC) patients with small para-aortic lymph node (smaller than 10mm in diameter, sPAN) were seldom reported, and existing guidelines did not provide definite treatment recommendation for them. Methods A total of 667 consecutive resectable GC patients were enrolled. 98 patients were in the sPAN group, and 569 patients without enlarged para-aortic lymph node were in the nPAN group. Standard D2 lymphadenectomy was performed. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant chemotherapy were administrated according to the cTNM and pTNM stage, respectively. Clinicopathological features and prognosis were compared between these two groups. Results The median size of sPAN was 6 (range, 2-9) mm and the distribution was prevalent in No. 16b1. cN stage (p=0.001) was significantly related to the presence of sPAN. sPAN was both independent risk factor for OS (p=0.031) and RFS (p=0.046) of all patients. The prognosis of patients with sPAN was significantly worse than that of patients with nPAN (OS: p=0.008; RFS: p=0.007). Preoperative CEA and CA19-9 were independent risk factors for prognosis of patients with sPAN. Furthermore, patients in the sPAN group with normal CEA and CA19-9 exhibited acceptable prognosis (5-year OS: 67%; RFS: 64%), while those with elevated CEA or CA19-9 suffered significantly poorer prognosis (5-year OS: 17%; RFS: 17%) than patients in the nPAN group (5-year OS: 64%; RFS 62%) (both p < 0.05). Conclusions Standard D2 lymphadenectomy should be considered a valid approach for GC patients with sPAN associate to normal preoperative CEA and CA19-9 levels. Patients with sPAN associated to elevated CEA or CA19-9 levels could benefit from a multimodal approach: neoadjuvant chemotherapy; radical surgery with D2 plus lymph nodal dissection extended to No. 16 station.

Preoperative chemotherapy combined with para-aortic lymph node dissection has clinical value in the treatment of gastric cancer with para-aortic lymph node metastases. BMC Surg 2022; 22:401. [PMID: 36404297 PMCID: PMC9677899 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-022-01844-0] [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: 05/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymph node metastases often occur in advanced gastric cancer, with some patients presenting with metastases in the para-aortic lymph nodes. There are persistent Controversies about the benefit of para-aortic lymph node dissection (PAND). Our purpose is to probe whether PAND following preoperative chemotherapy had any clinical significance in individuals with PALNs in gastric cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS To retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 86 gastric cancer patients (40 in the D2 + PAND group and 46 in the D2 group) who attended the abdominal surgery department of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital between September 1, 2008, and July 30, 2018. RESULTS In the D2 + PAND group (40 cases), the average number of lymph nodes cleared per case was 4.3 in group 16 (16a2, 16b1), and the postoperative pathology confirmed lymph node positivity in 16 cases, with a metastasis rate of 40%. The median overall survival times were 63 and 34 months for the patients in the D2 + PAND group and D2 group, respectively. The 3-year overall survival (OS) compared to the D2 group (D2 + PAND 69.1% vs. D2 50%, P = 0.012) and a statistically significant difference in 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) (D2 + PAND 69.6% vs. D2 38.3%, P = 0.007). Lymph node dissection extent and recurrence of para-aortic lymph nodes were independent prognostic variables for the patients. The recurrence rate was reduced in the D2 + PAND group compared to the D2 group (D2 + PAND 7.5% vs. D2 26.1%, p = 0.023). CONCLUSIONS For patients with gastric cancer whose imaging suggests metastasis in the para-aortic lymph nodes, preoperative chemotherapy combined with PAND is an effective and safe treatment that may benefit patient survival.

Abstract
Real-world study (RWS) is a method to draw conclusions by collecting and analyzing real-world data under a real clinical background. Compared with traditional randomized controlled trials (RCTs), RWSs are favored by clinicians because of their low cost and good extrapolation. In recent years, RWS has made remarkable achievements in the field of general surgery, especially in the drug treatment of advanced malignant tumors. Therefore, to further understand the main contents of the existing RWS and the application prospect of RWS in the future, this paper systematically reviews the clinical application of RWS in malignant tumors in general surgery in the past three years.

Abstract
Background: The effect of multidisciplinary team intervention (MDT) on the prognosis of advanced gastric cancer (GC) is still controversial. This study aims to analyze the effect of MDTs on the overall survival time of advanced gastric cancer patients. Methods: Patients with advanced GC who underwent surgical treatment between 2007 and 2014 were included in the study. They were divided into two groups; the MDT group received MDT treatment and the non-MDT group received conventional treatment. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare the overall survival (OS) of the two groups. The prognostic factors of advanced GC were evaluated by multivariate Cox regression analysis. Results: 394 patients were included in our study. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the prognosis of advanced GC patients with who underwent MDT intervention was better than those without (3-year OS of 55.6% vs. 46.1%, p = 0.005), Multivariate analysis indicated that MDT intervention could reduce mortality (HR = 0.493, p < 0.001). Conclusions: MDT intervention is an effective measure that improves the survival of patients with advanced GC.

Is D2 Lymphadenectomy Alone Suitable for Gastric Cancer With Bulky N2 and/or Para-Aortic Lymph Node Metastases After Preoperative Chemotherapy? Front Oncol 2021; 11:709617. [PMID: 34540676 PMCID: PMC8444230 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2021.709617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background For gastric cancer (GC) with extensive lymph node metastasis (bulky N2 and/or para-aortic lymph node metastases), there is no standard therapy worldwide. In Japan, preoperative chemotherapy (PCT) followed by D2 gastrectomy plus para-aortic lymph node dissection (PAND) is considered the standard treatment for these patients. However, in China, the standard operation for GC patients with only bulky N2 metastases was D2 gastrectomy. Besides, after PCT, whether doing PAND improves survival or not is debatable for GC patients with para-aortic lymph node (PAN) metastases. Therefore, we conducted this study to investigate whether D2 lymphadenectomy alone is suitable for these patients after PCT. Methods We retrospectively collected data on patients from our electronic medical record system. GC patients with bulky N2 and/or PAN metastases who underwent D2 lymphadenectomy alone after PCT were enrolled. The survival outcomes and chemotherapy responses were analyzed and compared with the results of the JCOG0405 study. Results From May 2009 to December 2017, a total of 83 patients met all eligibility criteria and were enrolled. The median survival duration for all patients was 40.0 months. The 3-year and 5-year OS rates for all patients were 50.3% and 45.6%, respectively. For patients with only bulky N2 metastasis, the 3-year and 5-year OS rates were 77.1% and 71.6%, respectively, which were similar to the results of the JCOG0405 study (82.7% and 73.4%). For patients with only PAN metastases, the 3-year and 5-year OS rates were 50.0% and 50.0%, respectively, which seemed to be lower than those of the JCOG0405 study (64.3% and 57.1%). For patients with bulky N2 and PAN metastases, the 3-year and 5-year OS rates were 7.4% and 0.0%, respectively, which were lower than those of the JCOG0405 study (20.0% and 20.0%). Conclusion The results of our study suggest that D2 lymphadenectomy alone is suitable for GC patients with only bulky N2 metastasis after PCT. However, D2 lymphadenectomy alone perhaps is not suitable for patients with bulky N2 and PAN metastases after PCT.

Abstract
The extent of lymph node (LN) dissection has been a topic of interest in gastric cancer (GC) surgery. D2 lymphadenectomy is considered the standard surgical procedure for most resectable advanced GC cases. The value and indications of more extended lymphadenectomy than D2 remain unclear. Currently, the controversial stations beyond the D2 range are mainly focused on no. 14v, no. 16a2/b1 and no. 13 LN stations. The metastatic rate of no. 14v LN is relatively high in advanced distal GC, particularly in patients with suspicious no. 6 LN metastasis. D2 plus no. 14v LN dissection may be attributed to improved survival outcomes for patients with obvious no. 6 LN metastasis. Although GC with para-aortic lymph node (PALN) metastases is considered an M1 disease beyond surgical cure, patients with limited PALN metastases may benefit from the treatment strategy of adjuvant chemotherapy followed by D2 plus no. 16a2-b1 LN dissection. In addition, D2 plus no. 13 LN dissection may be an option in a potentially curative gastrectomy for GC with duodenal invasion. The present review discusses the current status and future perspectives of D2 plus lymphadenectomy.

Initial experience of single-incision plus one port left-side approach totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with uncut Roux-en-Y reconstruction. World J Gastroenterol 2020; 26:4669-4679. [PMID: 32884224 PMCID: PMC7445872 DOI: 10.3748/wjg.v26.i31.4669] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2020] [Revised: 06/21/2020] [Accepted: 07/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Single incision plus one port left-side approach (SILS+1/L) totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) is an emerging technique for the treatment of gastric cancer. Reduced port laparoscopic gastrectomy has a number of potential advantages for patients compared with conventional laparoscopic gastrectomy: relieving postoperative pain, shortening hospital stay and offering a better cosmetic outcome. Nevertheless, there are no previous reports on the use of SILS+1/L TLDG with uncut Roux-en-Y (uncut R-Y) reconstruction.
AIM To investigate the initial feasibility of SILS+1/L TLDG with uncut Roux-en-Y digestive tract reconstruction (uncut R-Y reconstruction) to treat distal gastric cancer.
METHODS A total of 21 patients who underwent SILS+1/L TLDG with uncut R-Y reconstruction for gastric cancer were enrolled. All patients were treated at The Second Hospital of Shandong University. Reconstructions were performed intracorporeally with 60 mm endoscopic linear stapler and 45 mm no-knife stapler. The clinicopathological characteristics, surgical details, postoperative short-term outcomes, postoperative follow-up upper gastrointestinal radiography findings and endoscopy results were analyzed retrospectively.
RESULTS All SILS+1/L operations were performed by SILS+1/L TLDG successfully. The patient population included 13 men and 8 women with a mean age of 48.2 years (ranged from 40 years to 70 years) and median body mass index of 22.8 kg/m2. There were no conversions to open laparotomy, and no other port was placed. The mean operation time was 146 min (ranged 130-180 min), and the estimated mean blood loss was 54 mL (ranged 20-110 mL). The mean duration to flatus and discharge was 2.3 (ranged 1-3.5) and 7.3 (ranged 6-9) d, respectively. The mean number of retrieved lymph nodes was 42 (ranged 30-47). Two patients experienced mild postoperative complications, including surgical site infection (wound at the navel incision) and mild postoperative pancreatic fistula (grade A). Follow-up upper gastrointestinal radiography and endoscopy were carried out at 3 mo postoperatively. No patients experienced moderate or severe food stasis, alkaline gastritis or bile reflux during the follow-up period. No recanalization of the biliopancreatic limb was found.
CONCLUSION SILS+1/L TLDG with uncut R-Y reconstruction could be safely performed as a reduced port surgery.

Treatment of Locally Advanced Gastric Cancer (LAGC): Back to Lauren's Classification in Pan-Cancer Analysis Era? Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12071749. [PMID: 32630186 PMCID: PMC7409310 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12071749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2020] [Revised: 06/25/2020] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Guidelines recommend a perioperative approach in patients with stage II/III gastric cancer, but in real-life many patients receive immediate surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy (aCT). Although histologic subtypes may have different response to CT, no study has explored the influence of histotype on the efficacy of perioperative CT (pCT) or aCT. Materials and methods: The objective of the study was to evaluate the impact of clinicopathological features and histology (intestinal or diffuse) on survival according to strategy (pCT vs. aCT). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) and the secondary endpoint was event-free survival (EFS). Results: Out of 203 patients affected by LAGC, 83 received pCT and 120 aCT. At multivariate, histology and LVI in pCT cohort and positive resection margin in the aCT influenced both OS and EFS. No difference in EFS and OS was observed in relation to strategy. However, in the intestinal-type of pCT cohort survival outcomes were significantly higher compared to the aCT cohort, whereas in the diffuse-type were significantly worse in patients receiving pCT compared to those receiving aCT. Conclusions: Although retrospective and small-sized, this study suggests that the benefit of pCT might be limited to the intestinal-type. This hypothesis needs to be confirmed in prospective series.
