This study examined the impact of tumor location on lymph node metastasis (LNM) patterns and the efficacy of lymph node dissection in rectal cancer. Analyzing 882 patients who underwent total mesorectal excision with lateral lymph node dissection, we found that mesenteric LNM rates were higher in tumors located more orally, whereas lateral LNM rates ...

Non‐Flap Tunnel Technique (NFTT): A Novel Minimally Invasive Reconstruction Method After Proximal Gastrectomy for Gastric and Esophagogastric Junction Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study introduces the non‐flap tunnel technique (NFTT) as a simplified method for esophagogastrostomy following minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy. Compared with the conventional double‐flap technique, NFTT significantly reduces reconstruction time and the incidence of anastomotic stenosis, while maintaining comparable anti‐reflux outcomes ...

Indications for Surgical Resection in Patients With Neuroendocrine Tumor Liver Metastases: An Intensive Surgical Experience of a High‐Volume Center

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In patients with NELM, those with < 8 liver metastases and G1/2 tumors are the favorable candidates for liver resection. The important point of this study is that the patients who do not meet the above criteria should be considered for multidisciplinary treatment because of their extremely shorter recurrence‐free period.

Efficacy of Sequential Hepatic Vein Embolization Following Portal Vein Embolization in Promoting Regeneration of Liver Volume and Function Before Right‐Sided Major Hepatectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Sequential hepatic vein embolization (HVE) following portal vein embolization (PVE) significantly improves both the volume and function of the future remnant liver (FRL) compared to PVE alone. In this study, the FRL regeneration rates for volume and function were markedly higher and faster in the PVE–HVE group, with no differences in surgical outcomes ...
