The D-NOTES-group met in June 2009 for an evaluation of ongoing preclinical and clinical activities in natural orifice endoscopic surgery and the further coordination of research in Germany. Different working groups with various topics were formed. Consensus statements among various participants with different scientific and medical background were initiated. In summary, important topics were handled such as the correct handling of bacterial contamination and related complications, the question of the ideal entry point and a secure closure, interdisciplinary cooperation, and matters related to training and education. Furthermore, participants agreed on terminological basics. A to-do-list for medical engineering was formulated.

We present a pioneering case of a duplication of the common bile duct associated with agenesis of the dorsal pancreas in a 66-year-old man. After an episode of cholestatic jaundice, radiological investigations revealed complex vascular and biliary anomalies, redefining the therapeutic strategy. Instead of risky surgery, endoscopic biliopancreatic drainage resolved the symptoms.

Department of General surgery, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong, 510282, People's Republic of China.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the correlation between the tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) and peritoneal metastasis (PM) in gastric cancer (GC) and constructs a diagnostic model based on preoperative examination data.
Methods: To determine the feasibility of obtaining TSR in GC patients through preoperative examinations, the consistency of TSR between endoscopic biopsy tissues and postoperative histopathological tissues was evaluated. Additionally, the correlation between TSR and PM in GC was analyzed using Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets.
