The stomach resection according to Billroth I (B I) is very rarely done. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate our experience with diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in patients after stomach resection according to Billroth I. In patients with a condition after stomach resection according to B I, a study of the group of 20 years (November 1994 - December 2014) took place. Three patients were evaluated retrospectively after B I stomach resection with biliary obstruction. For the ERCP was used the Olympus therapeutic videotheroscop in all cases with the standard (as in normal anatomical situation). Cannulation success in diagnostic ERCP was achieved in 3 out of 3 patients - 100% success rate of ERC diagnosis. For all these 3 patients CDL was found in the ERCP. In addition, endoscopic treatment was performed immediately after ERCP diagnosis in all 3 patients with a CDL pathologic ERCP diagnosis, the initial endoscopic papillotomy (EPT) performed in the standard procedure (as in normal anatomy). Subsequently, endoscopic extraction of all CDL from hepatocholedocus to duodenum was performed. Overall the ERCP was completely successful in all 3 of the 3 (100% of 3) patients who initially started endoscopic therapy. There were no complications in our group of 3 patients. For ERCP in patients with BI stomach resection, we had 100% success rate of diagnostic and therapeutic ERCP in all of these patients (3 CDL patients).

Background: Despite efforts to expand insurance coverage, substantial inequalities persist, particularly in cancer treatment. We aimed to evaluate whether quality disparities exist across major insurance plans for patients undergoing curative-intent resection for gastrointestinal (GI) cancers.
Methods: This is a retrospective study of adult patients in the National Cancer Database (NCDB) diagnosed with GI malignant neoplasms between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2020.

In recent years, the incidence of gastric cancer (GC) has been on the rise, surgical procedures usually require the removal of part of gastric tissue connected with the tumor lesion, which leads to poor postoperative health and adverse prognosis in patients. Probiotics, as an active microorganism, play an important role in improving gastrointestinal function and enhancing immunity. In this study, we randomized 135 GC patients into a control group, a probiotic group and a combination group.

Background: Obesity is a growing health issue that contributes to numerous diseases and lowers quality of life. In patients with super obesity (BMI > 50 kg/m²), bariatric surgery, particularly laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), is a common treatment option. However, the role of antral resection (AR) in LSG remains unclear, especially in this high-risk population.

Rationale: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are spindle cell tumors that typically occur in the pleura and peritoneum, but very rarely in the stomach. To our best knowledge, there are only 10 cases reported in English literature. We reported a case of primary stomach SFT and summarized the characteristics of all previous cases, suggesting that pathologists and surgeons should include this disease in the differential diagnosis list of primary mesenchymal tumor of the stomach.

Background: The aim of this study was to verify the safety and efficacy of endoscopic resection (ER) for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
Methods: Among a consecutive series of resections for gastric GISTs performed in a single center, the outcomes of patients who had ER were compared to standard surgical resection (SR).
Results: In the cohort, 329 consecutive primary localized gastric GISTs patients (, ER/SR = 251/78) were enrolled.
