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.
Several surgical procedures have been reported for the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). We compared results treatments CSDH obtained from one burr-hole craniostomy with closed system drainage or without irrigation, two and small craniotomy irrigation closed-system drainage.Eighty-seven patients underwent surgery at our institution January 2004 to December 2008. Our were classified into three groups according operative procedure; group I, (n = 25), II, 32), III, 30).Age...
The microtubule-associated protein, tau, is involved in numerous neuronal processes such as vesicle transport, microtubule-plasma membrane interaction and the intracellular localization of proteins. Tau known to be phosphorylated by several kinases mitogen activated protein kinase, microtubule affinity regulating kinase A. We found a putative serum- glucocorticoid-induced 1 (SGK1) phosphorylation site within 207GSRSRTPSLP216 tau amino acid sequence. report here that SGK1 phosphorylates...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the short-term surgical and long-term functional outcomes Billroth I, II, Roux-en-Y reconstruction after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.Materials Methods: We retrospectively collected data from 697 patients who underwent gastrectomy for operable gastric cancer between January 2009 December 2012.The were classified into three groups according methods: Roux-en-Y.The parameters evaluated included patient tumor characteristics, operative details,...
The septal cartilage is the most useful donor site for autologous graft material in rhinoplasty. For successful nasal surgery, it necessary to understand developmental process of septum and predict amount harvestable before surgery.One hundred twenty-three Korean patients who underwent three-dimensional (3D) facial bone computed tomography (CT) were selected evaluation midsagittal view septum. Multiple parameters such as area each component measured using Digimizer software.The total showed...
The objective of the present retrospective analysis was to describe experience intraperitoneal (IP) paclitaxel and systemic chemotherapy in patients with peritoneal metastasis (PM) advanced gastric cancer (AGC) a multicenter setting Korea.The medical records AGC, who were diagnosed PM between January 2015 December 2018, reviewed. IP catheter placed pouch Douglas used for administration chemotherapy.We reviewed clinical outcomes 82 at six institutions Korea. Mean number cycles 6.6. mean index...
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....
Purpose Patients who have undergone gastrectomy unique symptoms that are not appropriately assessed using currently available tools. This study developed and validated a symptom-focused quality of life (QoL) questionnaire for patients received gastric cancer. Materials Methods Based on literature review, patient interviews, expert consultation by the KOrean QUality in Stomach cancer Study group (KOQUSS), initial item pool was developed. Two large-scale developmental studies were then...
The purpose of this study was to retrospectively compare clinical results, including proprioceptive function, after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between 2 groups using techniques that preserve and eliminate the tibial remnant. Forty-eight patients who were followed for at least 24 months ACL with 4-strand hamstring tendon autografts enrolled in study. They then divided into groups: remnant-preserving group (group A, 26 patients), whom more than 7 mm remnant stump...
To compare long-term disease-free survival (DFS) between patients receiving tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1) or capecitabine plus oxaliplatin (CAPOX) adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) for gastric cancer (GC).This retrospective multicenter observational study enrolled 983 who underwent curative gastrectomy with consecutive AC S-1 CAPOX stage II III GC at 27 hospitals in Korea February 2012 and December 2013. We conducted propensity score matching to reduce selection bias. Long-term oncologic...
This study aimed to compare the incidence of bile reflux, quality life (QoL), and nutritional status among Billroth II (BII), with Braun anastomosis (BII-B), Roux-en-Y (RY) reconstruction after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG).
Tumors of the small bowel are rare, accounting for about 3-6% all gastrointestinal neoplasms, though they cover more than 90% intestinal surface. However, diagnosis and treatment difficult present an ongoing challenge both surgeons gastroenterologists. The aim this study was to investigate clinical features tumors.Between November 1994 2007, 81 patients underwent treatments primary tumors in jejuno-ileal region at Department Surgery, Kangnam St. Mary's Hospital, Catholic University Korea. A...
Purpose:The aim of this study was to investigate the impact preoperative low body mass index (BMI) on both short-and long-term outcomes in patients with gastric cancer.Materials and Methods: A total 510 cancer were divided into following 3 groups: BMI group (≤18.5 kg/m 2 , n=51), normal (18.6-24.9kg/m n=308), high (≥25.0 n=151).Results: There significantly more stage III/IV than other groups (P=0.001).Severe postoperative complications frequent (P=0.010) survival worse (P<0.001) group.The...
Although there are many articles about single incision laparoscopic (SIL) hernioplasty, a large-scale study or article its long-term outcome has not been reported yet. The aim of this is to assess short- and outcomes SIL totally extraperitoneal (TEP) hernia repair with large number cases.A prospectively collected database containing details 1,231 procedures in 1,129 consecutive patients who underwent SIL-TEP between June 2010 December 2017 at institution was retrospectively analyzed....
Bone flap resorption (BFR) is a complication of cranioplasty (CP) that increases the risk brain damage and can cause cosmetic defects. In this study, factors for BFR were examined to improve prognosis patients after CP traumatic injury (TBI).This study was conducted in 80 with TBI who underwent decompressive craniectomy an autologous bone graft between August 2006 2017. defined as >0.1 ratio difference initial area last size <0.5 thickness contralateral region on computed tomography scans...
Background/Aims: Several studies have shown that colorectal neoplasms (CRN) including cancer (CRC) may be prevalent in patients with gastric cancer. However, most of these studies, colonoscopy to investigate the prevalence CRN was performed prior surgery. We aimed whether more postgastrectomy than healthy individuals.Methods: reviewed medical records those within a cohort gastrectomy who underwent between 2016 and 2017. Controls age- sex-matched at 2:1 ratio were identified among...
