Article Synopsis
- - This study analyzed the long-term survival rates of gastric cancer patients in Finland who underwent total or partial gastrectomy along with either splenectomy (removal of the spleen) or spleen preservation from 2005 to 2016.
- - Data from 2,196 patients were examined, revealing a 5-year survival rate of 38.7% for patients with minor spleen injury, 39.7% for those with splenectomy due to injury, and 30.8% for splenectomy due to cancer, indicating that the method of spleen management significantly impacted survival outcomes.
- - The results suggest that patients undergoing splenectomy for oncological reasons had worse survival rates compared to those
Background: The purpose of this study was to examine the rates of 90-day anastomotic complications and other postoperative complications after total or partial gastrectomy with antecolic versus retrocolic reconstruction in a population-based setting.
Methods: This population-based nationwide retrospective cohort study included all patients undergoing total or partial gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in Finland in 2005-2016, with follow-up until 31 December 2019. Logistic regression provided odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of 90-day mortality.
