Gastric remnant cancer: A distinct entity or simply another proximal gastric cancer?

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2015
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to compare outcomes following resection of gastric remnant (GRC) and conventional gastric cancer.MethodsPatients who underwent resection for gastric cancer in 8 academic institutions from 2000–2012 were evaluated to compare morbidity, mortality, and survival based on history of prior gastrectomy.ResultsOf the 979

Clinical Outcome of Proximal versus Total Gastrectomy for Proximal Gastric Cancer

World Journal of Surgery, 2002
AbstractTumors in the upper one‐third of the stomach has been increasing. Although the standard operation for proximal gastric cancer has been total gastrectomy, some have used proximal gastrectomy reconstructed by jejunum or gastric tube. The aim of this study was to evaluate the surgical results, hospital costs, and quality of life after gastrectomy ...

Proximal Gastrectomy and Gastric Tube Reconstruction for Early Cancer of the Gastric Cardia

Digestive Surgery, 1999
<i>Background:</i> Advances in diagnostics and techniques have increased the number of detections of early cancer of the gastric cardia. The aim of this report is to describe a new technique of proximal gastrectomy and gastric tube reconstruction using an autosuture stapler.

Defining the invasive phenotype of proximal gastric cancer cells

Cancer, 1994
Adenocarcinoma of the proximal stomach is now the most rapidly rising cancer among men in the United States. The development of metastases is the major cause of morbidity and mortality for this aggressive disease. The mechanisms by which tumor cells invade the basement membrane are unknown for this disease. We have identified and established 5 invasive

Pattern of Lymph Node Involvement in Proximal Gastric Cancer

World Journal of Surgery, 2009
AbstractBackgroundThe operative methods for proximal gastric cancer differ depending on the institution, thus there is no optimal therapeutic strategy. A splenic hilum lymph node (No. 10) dissection is necessary for D2 operation for proximal gastric cancer, which means it requires splenectomy. However, unnecessary splenectomy should be avoided.MethodsA

Diabetic biomarkers and the risk of proximal or distal gastric cancer

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2016
AbstractBackground and AimThe role of diabetes mellitus as a risk factor for gastric cancer has been controversial. We studied the association between diabetic biomarkers and the risk of gastric cancer and whether these associations depend on cancer location.MethodsIn this retrospective cohort study with subjects with negative initial ...

Characteristics and Clinical Outcome of Proximal-Third Gastric Cancer

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1998
It is generally accepted that the prognosis of patients with proximal gastric cancer (PGC) is worse than that of patients with more distal gastric cancer.The aim of this study was to compare the clinical features and outcomes of PGC with those of middle- and distal-third gastric cancers.

A new approach to the palliation of advanced proximal gastric cancer

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 1999
The operative mortality and morbidity rates of palliative total gastrectomy can be high, and survival is not extended. The quality of a foreshortened life is often marred by distressing postprandial symptoms and relentless weight loss. These problems can be attributed to the conventional manner of reconstruction after total gastrectomy, with small ...

Proximal gastric cancer—time for organ-sparing approach?

Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery
A steady increase in gastroesophageal junction and proximal gastric cancer (GC) incidence has been observed in the West. Given recent advances in neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC), we sought to characterize short- and long-term outcomes of patients with proximal GC who underwent total (TG) vs proximal gastrectomy (PG).Patients with stage II/III proximal ...

Gastric remnant cancer compared with primary proximal gastric cancer.

Hepato-gastroenterology, 2003
Recently, detections of early-stage gastric remnant cancer and small proximal gastric cancer are increasing. The aim of this study was to compare pathologic and prognostic data of gastric remnant cancer with those of primary proximal gastric cancer including upper gastric cancer based on a recent 15-year experience at a single institute in Japan.Among ...
