Objective: To compare short-term surgical outcomes including financial cost of robotic and laparoscopic gastrectomy. Background: Despite a lack supporting evidence, surgery has been increasingly adopted as minimally invasive modality for the treatment gastric cancer because its assumed technical superiority over conventional laparoscopy. Methods: A prospective, multicenter comparative study was conducted. Patients were matched according to surgeon, extent resection, sex. The primary endpoint...
In Brief Objective: To evaluate the technical feasibility, effectiveness, and safety of robot-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) with lymphadenectomy, using da Vinci system through analyses our initial series 100 consecutive patients. Summary Background Data: The application robotic surgery was proven to be one best cutting-edge technologies for successful minimally invasive by providing solutions many drawbacks laparoscopic surgery, yet few reports have studied in gastric cancer. Methods: A review...
Background— We sought to investigate the mechanism of geometric changes after main branch (MB) stent implantation and identify predictors functionally significant “jailed” side (SB) lesions. Methods Results— Seventy-seven patients with bifurcation lesions were prospectively enrolled from 8 centers. MB intravascular ultrasound was performed before implantation, fractional flow reserve measured in jailed SB. The vessel volume index both proximal distal increased implantation. plaque decreased...
Strong evidence is lacking as no confirmatory randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have compared the efficacy of totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (TLDG) with laparoscopy-assisted (LADG). The authors performed an RCT to confirm if TLDG different from LADG.
<i>Background:</i> The purpose of this study was to clarify the clinical significance macroscopic Borrmann type in advanced gastric cancer. <i>Methods:</i> From 1987 2001, we retrospectively studied clinicopathological features and prognoses 3,966 patients with cancer according classification type. <i>Results:</i> Multivariate analysis showed that gender, depth invasion were all associated status nodal involvement. There statistically significant...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects D2 lymphadenectomy with spleen preservation on surgical outcomes in locally advanced proximal gastric cancer.Between January 2000 and December 2004, a total 366 patients who underwent curative gastrectomy were studied retrospectively from prospectively designed database.The spleen-preservation group experienced shorter operation times, lower incidence perioperative transfusion, postoperative hospital stays. Perioperative transfusion...
Retroperitoneal liposarcoma is a rare tumor. The dimension and weight of are variable; those over 20 kg called 'giant liposarcoma'. Herein, we report giant retroperitoneal measuring 45 cm in diameter 25 encasing the entire left kidney adherent to adjacent structures. A 71-year-old woman presented for regular checkup. Image study revealed huge mass probably indicative We performed an organ-preserving surgical removal. pathologic was liposarcoma. At postoperative month 16, follow-up CT locally...
We report an unusual case of synchronous triple primary cancer the stomach, kidney, and thyroid in a 50-year-old male patient. Initial esophagogastroduodenoscopy with biopsy for medical check-up revealed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. performed abdominal/pelvic computed tomography scan staging incidentally found 1.7-cm exophytic hypervascular mass left kidney. Thyroid ultrasonography showed suspicious malignant nodules multiple lymph nodes (LNs) metastasis right side neck. Subsequent...
Purpose: The prevalence of gastric cancer in the elderly is increasing.The purpose this study was to clarify factors related morbidity following surgery patients.Materials and Methods: For study, data from 411 patients who underwent curative gastrectomies with lymph node dissections between March 2010 January 2013 were retrospectively studied using a prospectively designed database.Patients divided into 2 groups (<70 years vs. ≥70 years).For each group, perioperative analyzed determine if...
We conducted a randomized prospective trial (KLASS-07 trial) to compare laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) and totally laparoscopic (TLDG) for gastric cancer. In this interim report, we describe short-term results in terms of morbidity mortality. The sample size was 442 participants. At the time analysis, 314 patients were enrolled randomized. After excluding who did not undergo planned surgeries, performed modified per-protocol analysis 151 145 LADG TLDG groups, respectively....
Currently, circumferential resection margins (CRM) are used as a clinical endpoint in studies on the prognosis of rectal cancer. Although concept margin extraperitoneal cancer differs from that intraperitoneal due to differences anatomical and biologic behaviors, previous reports have provided information CRM involvement all types including lesions. Therefore, aim this study was analyze risk factors cancer.From January 2005 December 2008, 306 patients with were enrolled prospectively...
The prevalence of being overweight has risen remarkably in Korea. This study sought to clarify the relationship between and surgical outcomes gastric cancer patients.A total 410 patients who underwent curative gastrectomies with D2 dissection from January 2000 December 2003 were retrospectively studied a prospectively designed database. assigned two groups based upon their body mass index (BMI): non-overweight, BMI < 25 kg/m(2); overweight, >or= kg/m(2). Perioperative outcomes, postoperative...
