Diagnosis and Treatment of Abdominal Arterial Bleeding After Radical Gastrectomy: a Retrospective Analysis of 1875 Consecutive Resections for Gastric Cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Massive abdominal arterial bleeding is an uncommon yet life-threatening complication of radical gastrectomy. The exact incidence and standardized management of this lethal morbidity are not known.

Methods

Between January 2003 and December 2013, data from 1875 patients undergoing radical gastrectomy with D2 or D2 plus lymphadenectomy were recorded in a prospectively designed database from a single institute. The clinical data and management of both early (within 24 h) and late (beyond 24 h) postoperative abdominal arterial hemorrhages were explored. For late bleeding patients, transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) and re-laparotomy were compared to determine the better initial treatment option.

Results

The overall prevalence of postoperative abdominal arterial bleeding was 1.92 % (n?=?36), and related mortality was 33.3 % (n?=?12). Early and late postoperative bleedings were found in 6 and 30 patients, respectively. The onset of massive arterial bleeding occurred on average postoperative day 19. The common hepatic artery and its branches were the most common bleeding source (13/36; 36.1 %). All the early bleeding patients were treated with immediate re-laparotomy. For late bleeding, patients from the TAE group had a significantly lower mortality rate than that of the patients from the surgery group (7.69 vs. 56.25 %, respectively, P?=?0.008) as well as a shorter procedure time for bleeding control (2.3?±?1.1 vs. 4.8?±?1.7 h, respectively, P?ConclusionAbdominal arterial bleeding following radical gastrectomy tends to occur during the later phase after surgery, with further complications such as abdominal infection and fistula(s). For late bleeding, TAE can be considered as the first-line treatment when possible.

Project description:ImportanceFluorescent imaging with indocyanine green can be used to visualize lymphatics. Peritumoral injection of indocyanine green may allow for visualization of every draining lymph node from a primary lesion on near-infrared imaging.ObjectivesTo evaluate the role of fluorescent lymphography using near-infrared imaging as an intraoperative tool for achieving complete lymph node dissection and compare the number of lymph nodes retrieved with the use of near-infrared imaging and the number of lymph nodes retrieved without the use of near-infrared imaging.Design, setting, and participantsThis prospective single-arm study was conducted among 40 patients who underwent robotic gastrectomy between August 30, 2013, and July 21, 2014, at a single-center, tertiary referral teaching hospital. After propensity score matching, the results of these 40 patients were compared with the results of 40 historical control patients who underwent robotic gastrectomy without indocyanine green injection between January 1, 2012, and August 31, 2013. Statistical analysis was performed from January 1, 2015, to July 31, 2016.InterventionsRobotic gastrectomy with systemic lymphadenectomy and retrieval of lymph nodes under near-infrared imaging after peritumoral injection of indocyanine green to the submucosal layer 1 day before surgery.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary outcome was the number of retrieved lymph nodes in each nodal station.ResultsAmong the 40 patients in the study (19 women and 21 men; mean [SD] age, 52.2 [11.7] years), no complications related to indocyanine green injection or near-infrared imaging were observed. On completion of the lymphadenectomy, the absence of fluorescent lymph nodes in the dissected area was confirmed. A mean (SD) total of 23.9 (9.0) fluorescent lymph nodes were recorded among a mean (SD) total of 48.9 (14.6) overall lymph nodes retrieved. The mean number of overall lymph nodes retrieved was larger in the near-infrared group than in the historical controls (48.9 vs 35.2; P < .001), with a significantly greater number of lymph nodes retrieved at stations 2, 6, 7, 8, and 9. In the near-infrared group, 5 patients exhibited lymph node metastases, and all metastatic lymph nodes were fluorescent.Conclusions and relevanceThis study's findings suggest that fluorescent lymphography may be useful intraoperatively for identifying and retrieving all necessary lymph nodes for a complete and thorough lymphadenectomy.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and clinical effect of tubular esophagogastric anastomosis in laparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy.MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted involving 191 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from January 2017 to October 2020. Patients were divided into tubular esophagogastric anastomosis group (TG group) and traditional esophagogastric anastomosis group (EG group) according to the digestive tract reconstruction. Their intraoperative conditions, perioperative recovery and postoperative follow-up were compared. Patients were also divided into indocyanine green group and non-indocyanine green group according to whether or not indocyanine green tracer technology was used during the operation. Their intraoperative condition and perioperative recovery were compared and analyzed after propensity score matching.ResultsThe operation was successfully completed in all patients. Compared with the EG group, the TG group had less volume of gastric tube drainage, shorter gastric tube drainage time and proton pump inhibitors application time, and lower reuse rate of proton pump inhibitors. However, the TG group had a higher anastomotic stenosis at three months after surgery, as measured using anastomotic width and dysphagia score. Nevertheless, the incidence of reflux esophagitis and postoperative quality of life score in the TG group were lower compared with the EG group at 1st and 2nd year after surgery. In the indocyanine green analysis, the indocyanine green group had significantly shorter total operation time and lymph node dissection time and less intraoperative blood loss compared with the non-indocyanine green group. However, compared with the non-indocyanine green group, more postoperative lymph nodes were obtained in the indocyanine green group.ConclusionLaparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy is safe and effective treatment option for upper gastric cancer. Tubular esophagogastric anastomosis has more advantages in restoring postoperative gastrointestinal function and reducing reflux, but it has a higher incidence of postoperative anastomotic stenosis compared with traditional esophagogastrostomy. The application of indocyanine green tracer technique in laparoscopic radical proximal gastrectomy has positive significance.

Project description:BackgroundAfter radical surgery, early detection of recurrence and metastasis is a crucial factor in enhancing the prognosis and survival of patients with gastric cancer (GC). Therefore, assessing the risk of recurrence in gastric cancer patients and determining the timing for postoperative recurrence is crucial.MethodsThe clinicopathological data of 521 patients with recurrent gastric cancer, who underwent radical gastrectomy at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital between January 2010 and January 2017, were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were randomly divided into two groups: a training group (n = 365) and a validation group (n = 156). In the training set, patients were further categorized into early recurrence (n = 263) and late recurrence (n = 102) groups based on a 2-year boundary. Comparative analyses of clinicopathological features and prognoses were conducted between these two groups. Subsequently, a nomogram for predicting early recurrence was developed and validated.ResultsIn this study, the developed nomogram incorporated age, serous infiltration, lymph node metastasis, recurrence mode, and the tumour marker CA19-9. In the training cohort, the area under the curve (AUC value) was 0.739 (95% CI, 0.682-0.798), with a corresponding C-index of 0.739. This nomogram was subsequently validated in an independent validation cohort, yielding an AUC of 0.743 (95% CI, 0.652-0.833) and a C-index of 0.743. Furthermore, independent risk factors for prognosis were identified, including age, absence of postoperative chemotherapy, early recurrence, lymph node metastasis, abdominal metastasis, and vascular cancer embolus.ConclusionIndependent risk factors for gastric cancer recurrence following radical surgery were utilized to construct a nomogram for predicting early relapse. This nomogram effectively assesses the risk of recurrence, aids in treatment decision-making and follow-up planning in clinical settings, and demonstrated strong performance in the validation cohort.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most malignant diseases and threatens the health of individuals across the globe. Hitherto, the identification of prognosis risk stratification on GC has mainly depended on the TNM staging, but owing to its inaccuracy and incompleteness, the prognostic value it offers remains controversial in the current clinical setting. Thus, an effective prognostic model for GC after radical gastrectomy is still needed.MethodsPatients with pathologically confirmed GC who underwent radical gastrectomy from 2 different centers were retrospectively enrolled into a training and the validation cohort, respectively. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm was applied to select variables among multiple factors, including clinical characteristics, pathological parameters, and surgery- and treatment-related indicators. The multivariate Cox regression method was used to establish the model to predict 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival. Both internal and external validations of the nomogram were then completed in terms of discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. Finally, prognostic risk stratification of GC was conducted with X-tile software.ResultsA total of 1,424 patients with GC were eligible in this study, including 1,010 in the training cohort and 414 in the validation cohort. Seven indicators were selected by LASSO to develop the nomogram, including the number of positive lymph nodes, tumor size, adjacent organ invasion, vascular invasion, the level of carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA 125), depth of invasion, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status. The nomogram demonstrated a robust predictive capacity with favorable accuracy, discrimination, and clinical utility both in the internal and external validations. Moreover, we divided the population into 3 risk groups of survival according to the cutoff points generated by X-tile, and in this way, the nomogram was further improved into a risk-stratified prognosis model.ConclusionsWe have developed a prognostic risk stratification nomogram for GC patients after radical gastrectomy with 7 available indicators that may guide clinical practice and help facilitate tailored decision-making, thus avoiding overtreatment or undertreatment and improving communication between clinicians and patients.
