AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study assessed the use and safety of staging laparoscopy (SL) for advanced gastric cancer treatment, reviewing cases from 2015 to 2019.
  • - Out of 59 patients, 47.5% showed peritoneal dissemination, and the false negative rate for detecting this condition was 6.7%, with only mild complications reported.
  • - The findings suggest that while SL is a valuable diagnostic tool for determining treatment strategies, there's a need for improvements to enhance accuracy and reliability in diagnosis.

Article Abstract

Objective: We examined the applicability and safety of staging laparoscopy(SL)in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the gastric cancer cases that were examined using SL between January 2015 and December 2019 at our hospital.

Results: Within this period, 59 gastric cancer patients underwent SL, of whom 53 were diagnosed with SL at first examination. The rare complications of SL were postoperative nausea and vomiting(1 case). In 47.5%(28/59)of patients, we observed peritoneal dissemination including positive lavage cytology. In 2 cases, peritoneal dissemination was found during curative resection despite not being detected by SL. Thus, the false negative rate of peritoneal dissemination discovery was 6.7%(2/30). Among the individuals who were diagnosed as P1 or CY1 at first, subsequent SLs were performed in 6 cases, and 5 patients were re-assigned as P0CY0, of whom 4 underwent conversion surgery.

Conclusions: SL is an essential and safe examination method for defining the treatment strategy in advanced gastric cancer. However, further improvements are needed to reduce the false negative discovery rate and to advance gastric cancer treatment by increasing reliability of diagnosis.

Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Internal Medicine, Incheon St. Mary's Hospital, College of Medicine, The Catholic University of Korea, Seoul, Korea.

The prevalence of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in Korea has not been reported largely because, it is a relatively rare disease. Gastric MALT lymphoma is clinically important because of the high prevalence of () in Korea. The endoscopic findings of gastric MALT lymphoma are diverse, and it is often challenging to differentiate from gastric adenocarcinoma.

Predicting early recurrence in locally advanced gastric cancer after gastrectomy Using CT-based deep learning model: a multicenter study.

Int J Surg

December 2024

Zhejiang Key Laboratory of Imaging and Interventional Medicine, Zhejiang Engineering Research Center of Interventional Medicine Engineering and Biotechnology, Lishui Hospital, School of Medicine, Zhejiang University, Lishui, China.

Background: Early recurrence in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LAGC) portends aggressive biological characteristics and a dismal prognosis. Prediction of early recurrence may help determine treatment strategies for LAGC. To develop a deep learning model for early recurrence prediction (DLER) based on preoperative multiphase computed tomography (CT) images and further explore the underlying biological basis of the proposed model.
