Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an antiadhesion membrane in preventing postoperative small bowel obstruction (SBO) in patients undergoing open gastrectomy for gastric cancer, following prior evidence of its use in other surgeries. !* -
- Out of 1204 participants in the JCOG1001 trial, 1200 were analyzed, identifying that factors like total gastrectomy and significant blood loss heightened the risk of SBO, but the antiadhesion membrane offered no protective benefit against it. !* -
- The findings concluded that the antiadhesion membrane does not lower the incidence of SBO following open gastrectomy in gastric cancer patients, indicating it should not be used for SBO prevention in this surgical context
Purpose: The impact of postoperative complications on survival after radical surgery for esophageal, gastric, and colorectal cancers remains controversial. We conducted a systematic review of recent publications to examine the effect of postoperative complications on oncological outcome.
Methods: A literature search of PubMed/MEDLINE was performed using the keywords "esophageal cancer," "gastric cancer," and "colorectal cancer," obtaining 27 reports published online up until the end of April 2016.
