Redefining the Role of Splenectomy in Scirrhous Gastric Cancer: Toward a Selective Multimodal Strategy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Scirrhous gastric cancer, characterized by diffuse infiltration and a high propensity for peritoneal dissemination, remains one of the most aggressive subtypes of gastric cancer. Despite a relatively high incidence of splenic hilar lymph node (No. 10) metastasis, the oncologic benefit of splenectomy remains controversial, while its association

Radical Resection of the Third Portion of the Duodenum for Secondary Aortoduodenal Fistula

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Secondary aortoduodenal fistula most commonly involves the third portion of the duodenum and requires definitive management of both vascular and gastrointestinal components. We demonstrate a step‐by‐step technique for radical duodenal resection and reconstruction performed in structured collaboration with cardiovascular surgeons.

Carcinoembryonic Antigen Messenger RNA in Pelvic Lavage Fluid Predicts Local Recurrence After Curative‐Intent Resection of Rectal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Pelvic lavage carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) mRNA was quantified in 178 patients undergoing curative‐intent resection for rectal cancer. Positive pelvic lavage CEA mRNA was significantly associated with local recurrence and provided additional prognostic information beyond circumferential resection margin (CRM) status.

Age‐Dependent Prognostic Significance of Preoperative Transthyretin After Curative Resection for Stage I–III Colorectal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Preoperative malnutrition and systemic inflammation are established determinants of adverse outcomes in colorectal cancer (CRC). Transthyretin (TTR), a rapid‐turnover hepatic protein, reflects both nutritional and inflammatory status; however, its clinical utility may be influenced by age‐ and sex‐related variability.
