Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional advantages of pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG) in comparison with distal gastrectomy with Billroth I anastomosis (DG) in early gastric cancer (EGC). Between 2005 and 2007, 24 patients underwent PPG and 30 underwent DG. Subjective global assessment, objective data assessment, and endoscopic findings of the remnant stomach were compared between the two groups. Two years after surgery, the patients' body weights recovered to 97% in PPG, but they continued to decrease in DG. Postoperative blood lymphocyte counts remained low in DG, but recovered to preoperative levels 6 months after surgery in PPG. Food residue in the gastric remnant was frequently observed in PPG (71.4%) than in DG (15.8%, P = 0.001). In nutritional aspect, PPG may be a more ideal operation than DG. However, food residue in the gastric remnant should be considered in PPG.

Background: Sodium polystyrene sulfonate (SPS) is a cation-exchange resin used to treat hyperkalemia. Although colorectal ulcers are known side effects of long-term SPS use, few studies have reported SPS-associated gastric ulcers. Herein, we report a case of repeated gastric ulcers during SPS administration.

Introduction: Pancreaticoduodenectomy after proximal gastrectomy (PG) presents technical challenges owing to the need to preserve blood flow in the remnant stomach. Considering the oncological factors and preservation of the remnant stomach blood supply, it is crucial to preserve or reconstruct the right gastric artery (RGA) and/or right gastroepiploic artery (RGEA). In cases where the RGEA is preserved, technical considerations for reconstruction arise owing to the poor motility of the remnant stomach.

Background: Blood supply to the remnant stomach should be preserved during pancreatectomy in patients with a history of gastrectomy. Moreover, ischemic complications should be considered when performing pancreatoduodenectomy in patients with celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) stenosis. However, whether these surgical procedures can be safely performed remains unclear.

Digestive tract reconstruction for gastric cancer has gone through a century and gradually formed a mature and complete system. Reasonable digestive tract reconstruction is one of the key factors in minimizing functional disorders after gastrectomy and enhancing quality of life. Therefore, this article summarizes the history and current situation of digestive tract reconstruction both domestically and internationally, including distal gastrectomy, total gastrectomy, proximal gastrectomy, and pylorus preserving gastrectomy, in order to seek the future development direction of digestive tract reconstruction and benefit gastric cancer patients.
