Comparing open and minimally invasive surgical procedures for oesophagectomy in the treatment of cancer: the ROMIO (Randomised Oesophagectomy: Minimally Invasive or Open) feasibility study and pilot trial [PDF]

, 2015
Localised oesophageal cancer can be curatively treated with surgery (oesophagectomy) but the procedure is complex with a risk of complications, negative effects on quality of life and a recovery period of 6-9 months. Minimal-access surgery may accelerate

Proximal gastrectomy with jejunal interposition and TGRY anastomosis for proximal gastric cancer

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2014
To compare the short-term outcomes of patients who underwent proximal gastrectomy with jejunal interposition (PGJI) with those undergoing total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y anastomosis (TGRY).From January 2009 to January 2011, thirty-five patients underwent PGJI, and forty-one patients underwent TGRY.

Gastric Peroral Endoscopic Tunneled Stricturotomy for Post‐Sleeve Gastrectomy Stenosis: Case Series and Literature Review

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Gastric peroral endoscopic tunneled stricturotomy (G‐POETS) has emerged as a novel procedure to treat post‐sleeve gastrectomy stenosis. We present a case series highlighting the use of G‐POETS to treat sleeve stenosis. Clinical success was assessed using the Dakkak‐Bennett Dysphagia Score and the Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index.

Minimally invasive Merendino procedure for a small gastroesophageal junction tumor with ArtiSential articulated instruments (with video)

Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery
A proximal gastrectomy is sufficient for patients with small gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) tumors. Continuity can be restored with an esophagojejunostomy with jejunal interposition, offering significant functional advantages.

Comparative Study on the Difference in Functional Outcomes at Discharge between Proximal and Total Gastrectomy

Case Reports in Gastroenterology, 2012
Several studies have regarded proximal gastrectomy (PG) as optimal compared to total gastrectomy (TG) for upper stomach cancer. In addition to the traditional outcomes of complication and mortality, change in functional status should be considered as ...

Adjuvant nivolumab after chemoradiotherapy and resection for patients with esophageal cancer: A real‐world matched comparison of overall survival

International Journal of Cancer, Volume 158, Issue 5, Page 1292-1301, 1 March 2026.
What's New? Patients with esophageal or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer with residual disease after treatment with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and resection frequently experience poor survival. Improvements in outcome, however, may be possible using adjuvant treatment with nivolumab.

Genomic alterations in primary gastric adenocarcinomas correlate with clinicopathological characteristics and survival. [PDF]

, 2004
Background & aimsPathogenesis of gastric cancer is driven by an accumulation of genetic changes that to a large extent occur at the chromosomal level. In order to investigate the patterns of chromosomal aberrations in gastric carcinomas, we performed
