Surgical Outcomes of Laparoscopic-assisted Distal Gastrectomy Versus Totally Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy Billroth I for Gastric Cancer.

Objective: The present study aimed to compare intraoperative and postoperative outcomes of laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy versus totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) Billroth I (BI) for gastric cancer and to assess the impact of the initial introduction phase of TLDG BI anastomosis.

Patients And Methods: The study analyzed the prospectively collected data of patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy BI from 2014 to 2021 at Seoul National University Hospital.

Results: Among 1116 patients, laparoscopic-assisted distal gastrectomy BI was performed in 566 patients and TLDG BI was performed in 550 patients.

Surgery for Locally Advanced GIT Cancers Has Potentially Good Postoperative Outcomes in a Tertiary Hospital.

Background: Adhesions and infiltration into adjacent tissues are present in about 12% of gastrointestinal (GIT) cancers. These adhesions have high potential risk of malignancy. Free resection margin is a predictor of good survival in such patients.

Impact of reconstruction methods and pathological factors on survival after pancreaticoduodenectomy.

Background: Surgery remains the mainstay of therapy for pancreatic head (PH) and periampullary carcinoma (PC) and provides the only chance of cure. Improvements of surgical technique, increased surgical experience and advances in anesthesia, intensive care and parenteral nutrition have substantially decreased surgical complications and increased survival. We evaluate the effects of reconstruction type, complications and pathological factors on survival and quality of life.

Pancreatic endocrine neoplasm can mimic serous cystadenoma.

A 57-yr-old female patient was referred to our hospital with a cystic lesion of the head of the pancreas that had been noted on abdominal computed tomography (CT). Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) showed a 3.0 cm rounded mass in the head of the pancreas.
