The utility of robotic surgery for remnant gastric cancer remains unclear. We report a case of a robotic gastrectomy for remnant gastric cancer after pancreaticoduodenectomy and Child reconstruction with Braun enteroenterostomy. Adhesiolysis, lymphadenectomy, and gastrectomy were robotically performed. Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging confirmed the tissue perfusion of the reconstructive tract. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. Robotic surgery facilitates safety for gastrectomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy because of its precise manipulation; its advantages can be further exploited by maximizing usage of the assistant's forceps. Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging capability of the da Vinci Xi Surgical System allows timely evaluation of tissue perfusion at the site of interest, leading to a more reliable procedure.

Lipid Profiles, Telomere Length, and the Risk of Malignant Tumors: A Mendelian Randomization and Mediation Analysis.

The relationship between lipid profiles, telomere length (TL), and cancer risk remains unclear. This study employed two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) with mediation analysis to investigate their causal relationships, examining lipid profiles as exposure, TL as mediator, and nine cancer types as outcomes. We conducted our analysis using two-stage least squares (2SLS) regression integrated with inverse variance weighted (IVW) methods to address potential endogeneity and strengthen our causal inference.

Background: Laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) with Billroth I (B-I) reconstruction is frequently performed for gastric cancer. However, the difference between the circular stapler technique (CS) and delta-shaped anastomosis (DA) remains unclear, especially regarding the postoperative endoscopic physiological findings.

Methods: Three hundred and one patients including 150 CS patients and 151 DA patients during LADG with B-I reconstruction between 2013 and 2019 at Saitama Medical University International Medical Center were chosen as study subjects.

Autoimmune gastritis (AIG) is a chronic condition in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the stomach lining, specifically targeting parietal cells that produce stomach acid and intrinsic factors. After the infection was eradicated, AIG developed in an elderly woman with symptoms of the disease. 1.

Background: Ensuring a pathologically negative distal margin (DM) and preserving a larger remnant stomach is important for proximal gastrectomy (PG) in patients with esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer. However, the minimum DM length for ensuring negative margins has not been identified.

Methods: We enrolled patients undergoing PG or total gastrectomy for EGJ cancer.

Background: Gastric stump neoplasia is defined as a neoplasia that arises in the gastric remnant after at least 5 years of interval from the first gastric resection.

Aims: The aim of this study was to analyze 51 patients who underwent total and subtotal gastrectomy and multi-visceral resections in patients with gastric stump cancer.

Methods: The hospital records of 51 patients surgically treated for gastric stump cancer between 1989 and 2019 were reviewed.
