Short‐term outcomes of intracorporeal anastomosis in laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer: A nationwide, multi‐institutional cohort study in Japan (ICAN study)

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We retrospectively compared intracorporeal and extracorporeal anastomosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer in 46 institutions by using propensity‐score matching. Intracorporeal anastomosis showed advantages over extracorporeal anastomosis in terms of blood loss, intraoperative vascular injury, bowel recovery, and length of

Clinical significance of preoperative Glasgow prognostic score in patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous peritoneal metastases

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative GPS2 is an independent poor prognostic factor in patients with colorectal cancer and synchronous peritoneal metastases, and surgical resection does not improve prognosis in patients with GPS2. Preoperative GPSs may be used as indicators for surgical resection of synchronous peritoneal metastases.

Clinical role of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma concomitant with occult peritoneal dissemination: A multicenter retrospective study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The effectiveness of intraperitoneal chemotherapy using paclitaxel (i.p.‐PTX) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients with peritoneal dissemination remains elusive. This study indicated that the i.p.‐PTX therapy may improve survival in selected patients with PDAC, in particular those with occult peritoneal dissemination.
