Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Cooperative Surgery for Gastric Cancer as an Alternative Treatment in Elderly Patients: A Prospective Observational Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a prospective study of 20 elderly gastric cancer patients who declined gastrectomy, laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (LECS) was technically safe and preserved postoperative function. However, as oncological curability cannot be assured in advanced cases, careful selection and informed consent are essential.

Revising Fascial Anatomy With a Focus on the Fusion Fascia in Mesenteric Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This review critically reassesses our prior hypothesis and proposes a revised anatomical model of the fusion fascia that is broadly applicable to GI cancer surgeries grounded in the principles of mesenteric resection. Our synthesis suggests that the fusion fascia is neither a dense connective tissue membrane nor a remnant of mesothelial fusion, but ...

Lymphatic Vessels in Inflammation

Journal of Clinical & Cellular Immunology, 2014
Lymphatic vessels are important for tissue fluid homeostasis and for the uptake of dietary lipids in the intestine. Moreover, lymphatic vessels are intimately linked with induction of the immune response, as they transport antigen, inflammatory mediators, and leukocytes from peripheral tissues to draining lymph nodes (dLNs).

Safety and Feasibility of Laparoscopic and Endoscopic Cooperative Surgery With Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Large Superficial Non‐Ampullary Duodenal Epithelial Tumors

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for large superficial non‐ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs) poses substantial technical challenges, primarily because of a heightened risk of adverse events (AEs). Laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery (D‐LECS) was introduced to address these risks, with recent ...
