The short-term results of 1,605 gastrectomies performed for stomach cancer, using different types of esophagoenterostomy, are discussed. Anastomotic leakage is the main criterion for a choice of the most optimal procedure of forming an anastomosis. The contribution of the first and second rows of sutures to leakage is evaluated. An analysis of data on anastomotic leakage incidence points to the advantages offered by application of submerged esophagus-related anastomosis. A new modification of procedure of formation of muffle-type of esophagoenterostomy is presented. Leakage was registered in 1.3% which was due to technical errors during surgery. The non-reflux properties of the anastomosis are emphasized, with particular emphasis on its reliability, good functional characteristics, simplicity and wide range of application. The clinical applications are described.

Risk factors for anastomotic leakage in rectal cancer surgery reflecting current practices.
Surg Today
January 2025
Department of Surgery, Yokohama City University Hospital, 3-9, Fukuura, Kanazawa-Ku, Yokohama, Kanagawa, 236-0004, Japan.
Purpose: In recent years, major advancements have been made in rectal cancer surgery with the introduction of new techniques such as robotic surgery and indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI). This study aimed to evaluate the comprehensive risk factors for anastomotic leakage (AL) following rectal cancer surgery, incorporating recently introduced techniques and other existing factors, to reflect current practices.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 304 patients who underwent either robotic or laparoscopic anterior resection between January 2019 and December 2023.

Objective: Globally, over 50% of the population is affected by , yet research on its prevalence and impact in patients with obesity undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is inconclusive. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of infection in individuals with obesity undergoing LSG, evaluate the percentage of postoperative staple-line leaks, and explore the potential link between infection and staple-line leaks.
Methods: This retrospective analysis assessed adult patients with class III obesity who underwent LSG between 2015 and 2020 at a tertiary care hospital in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Usefulness of Serum Biomarkers in Predicting Anastomotic Leakage After Gastrectomy.
Cancers (Basel)
January 2025
Biomedical Research Group on Biomaterials and Wound Healing (Ciber-BBN), Traslational Research and Innovation in General and Digestive Surgery (Idipaz), 28046 Madrid, Spain.
Background/objectives: Anastomotic leakage (AL) is one of the most concerning complications following gastrectomy. The aim of this study was to assess and compare the predictive accuracy of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), fibrinogen, and the mean platelet volume (MPV) in the early diagnosis of post-gastrectomy AL.
Methods: A prospective bicentric observational study was conducted including all patients undergoing elective gastrectomy between August 2018 and December 2022.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols are evidence-based care improvement pathways which are perceived to expedite patient recovery following surgery. Their utility in the setting of oesophagectomy remains unclear. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised clinical trials (RCTs) to evaluate the impact of ERAS protocols on recovery following oesophagectomy compared to standard care.
