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. The following data were analyzed: sex, age group, the interval between the first surgery and the diagnosis of gastric stump cancer, location of the ulcer that motivated the gastrectomy, type of reconstruction, tumor resectability, surgery performed, reconstruction of the digestive tract, associated surgical procedures, postoperative complications using the Clavien-Dindo classification, disease staging, and survival.
Results: There were 43 (83.3%) men, with a mean age of 66.9 years. The mean interval between the initial gastrectomy and surgery for the treatment of gastric stump neoplasia was 34.7 years. All had previously undergone Billroth II reconstruction. Most patients underwent total gastrectomy (35 cases - 68.6%), followed by subtotal gastrectomy (6 cases - 11.8%), and the remainder were considered unresectable (10 patients - 19.6%), undergoing jejunostomy for nutritional support. Multi-visceral resections consisted of splenectomies, cholecystectomies, hepatectomies, partial colectomies, pancreatectomies, enterectomies, and nephrectomies. Among the patients who had the lesion resected, the mean follow-up time was 34.2 months (standard deviation: 47.6 months), the overall survival at 3 years was 43.6%, and the survival at 5 years was 29.7%.
Conclusion: The treatment of gastric stump neoplasia is still challenging and difficult, and personalized follow-up strategies should be focused on high-risk patients, offering opportunities for early intervention, better clinical outcomes, and long-term survival.

Background: Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy is a safe and effective surgical method for treating benign and malignant tumors of the pancreatic body and tail. However, laparoscopic surgery requires good intraoperative exposure, and since the pancreas is obstructed by the stomach and duodenum, making surgical operations and the management of intraoperative emergencies challenging. Therefore, gastric traction is crucial in laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy.

Background: Duodenal stump leakage is one of the most critical complications following gastrectomy surgery, with a high mortality rate. The present study aimed to establish a predictive model based on machine learning for forecasting the occurrence of duodenal stump leakage in patients who underwent laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
Materials And Methods: The present study included the data of 4,070 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma who received laparoscopic gastrectomy.

Background: Gastrectomy for gastric cancer with duodenal invasion poses an oncologic (high positive rate of resection line infiltration) and a surgical (high risk of duodenal fistula) challenge. This study aimed to validate the safety of gastrectomy for gastric cancer with duodenal invasion.
Methods: A total of 82 patients with distal gastric cancer who underwent gastrectomy and reconstruction via the Billroth II or Roux-en-Y procedure at Kobe University Hospital between 2011 and 2021 were retrospectively reviewed.

Gastric remnant volvulus following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is rare, with only two previously reported cases. Herein, we present the first case of gastric remnant volvulus following gastric sleeve conversion to RYGB in a 32-year-old female. Management for gastric remnant volvulus has not been clearly described in the literature due to the rarity of cases; however, previously documented cases of gastric remnant volvulus following RYGB were managed with gastropexy or resection of the gastric remnant.
