The patient is a 90-year-old man. Three years and 3 months after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for early gastric cancer, pT1b(SM2)pN1M0, Stage Ⅰ, the patient visited our hospital with abdominal pain, and a large amount of ascites and stenosis of transverse colon were pointed out. He underwent a right hemicolectomy under laparotomy. Histopathologically, it was diagnosed as peritoneal recurrence of previous gastric cancer. Postoperatively, he died of aspiration pneumonia. As for the cause of death after surgery of early gastric cancer, there are many causes of death from other diseases and few from primary malignancy. Furthermore, recurrence of peritoneal dissemination is extremely rare and considered to be a valuable case.

Single-incision plus one-port laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy with double-channel anastomosis (SILT-DT) is a minimally invasive surgical approach for treating proximal gastric cancer. This technique includes comprehensive laparoscopic resection of the proximal stomach, lymph node dissection, and double-tract anastomosis. By integrating single-port laparoscopic surgery with an auxiliary operating hole, SILT-DT reduces procedural difficulty while facilitating the placement of an abdominal drainage tube.

No established method currently exists for evaluating tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in gastric cancer (GC), and their clinical significance based on infiltration site in GC remains unclear. In this study, we developed a method to evaluate TILs according to their infiltration site as a prognostic marker for GC. We retrospectively analyzed 103 patients with advanced GC who underwent curative resection.

Betel nut chewing, common in several Asian populations, is linked to increased cancer risk, including oral, esophageal, gastric, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Aspirin shows potential as a chemopreventive agent. This study investigates the association between aspirin use and cancer risk among betel nut chewers.

Gastric cancer is a common malignant tumor with high incidence and mortality. The overexpression of Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is associated with increased metastatic potential and poor clinical outcome in gastric cancer. Despite the proven clinical response rates of approved HER2-targeted therapies, including Trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy, their limited long-term clinical benefits and inevitable disease progression still pose significant challenges to the clinical treatment of gastric cancer.
