Laparoscopic versus open resection for stage II/III rectal cancer in obese patients: A multicenter propensity score‐based analysis of short‐ and long‐term outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 71-80, January 2023., 2023
Kaplan‐Meier plot for relapse‐free survival (RFS) after propensity score (PS) matching. Abstract Aim Whether a laparoscopic procedure can contribute to the improvement of clinical outcomes in obese patients with stage II/III rectal cancer compared to an open procedure remains unclear.

A phase II study of neoadjuvant capecitabine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan (XELOXIRI) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 81-90, January 2023., 2023
XELOXIRI neoadjuvant chemotherapy appears to be feasible and efficacious for patients with LARC. Although neoadjuvant XELOXIRI alone did not yield our expected pCR rate, the local recurrence rate, 3‐year DFS and measures of safety met current standards.

Frailty and surgical outcomes in gastrointestinal cancer: Integration of geriatric assessment and prehabilitation into surgical practice for vulnerable patients

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 27-41, January 2023., 2023
Accumulating evidence demonstrates that the integration of preoperative geriatric assessment and prehabilitation for frail patients into clinical practice may improve perioperative and long‐term outcomes in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. We proposed an example for the integration of older patients‐specific care into treatment strategies for ...

A prospective randomized controlled study on the role of restoring liver diaphragm surface tension and pain control at port sites in optimizing pain management following laparoscopic cholecystectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 131-137, January 2023., 2023
The cornerstone of treatment for symptomatic gallbladder stones is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Pain is the commonest cause of extended hospital stay. Disturbance of liver—diaphragm surface tension is the main cause of pain. Retained CO2 is a major concern post laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Tumor budding may be a promising prognostic indicator in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma: A multicenter retrospective study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 138-146, January 2023., 2023
High tumor budding is a new candidate for an additional determinant of the T category in staging ICC. An LCSGJ staging system containing an additional evaluation of tumor budding may lead to improved staging accuracy. Abstract Purpose This retrospective study evaluated our hypothesis that high tumor budding (≥10 buds) may help determine the appropriate

Survival outcomes of laparoscopic versus open total gastrectomy with nodal dissection for gastric cancer in a high‐volume Japanese center: A propensity score‐matched analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 53-62, January 2023., 2023
To compare the survival outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) with those of open total gastrectomy (OTG), 580 patients were enrolled and 1:1 propensity score matching was implemented to reduce selection bias. Five‐year overall survival was better in the LTG group, and there was no significant difference in overall survival according to ...
