Prognostic relevance of MMP-2 (72-kD collagenase IV) in gastric cancer [PDF]
The association of MMP-2 (matrix metalloproteinase 2, 72-kD collagenase IV) with invasive and metastatic capacity of tumor cells has implicated a potential role in the prognosis for cancer patients.

Efficacy of prophylactic splenectomy for proximal advanced gastric cancer invading greater curvature
Background For proximal gastric cancer invading the greater curvature, concomitant splenectomy is frequently performed to secure the clearance of lymph node metastases. However, prognostic impact of prophylactic splenectomy remains unclear.

Redefining the Role of Splenectomy in Scirrhous Gastric Cancer: Toward a Selective Multimodal Strategy. [PDF]
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

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

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Endoscopic Resection of Undifferentiated-type Early Gastric Cancer
Early detection of gastric cancer is crucial because the survival rate can be improved through curative treatment. Although surgery and gastrectomy with lymph node dissection remain as the gold standard for curative treatment, early gastric cancer (EGC ...

The Indication of Proximal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer
はじめに:我々の施設では過去の胃全摘後標本のリンパ節転移状況の検討から上部胃癌に対する根治術式として,術前評価が胃上部に限局する直径4 cm以下の深達度MP以浅の症例を対象に脾温存の噴門側胃切除(以下,噴切)を施行してきた.今回,これらの症例をretrospectiveに検討し,特にリンパ節転移の観点から再評価し,上部胃癌への噴切の至適適応基準を再考することを目的とした.方法:1992年7月から2007年9月までに行われた上部胃癌術前深達度評価MP以浅の噴切症例206例を対象とし,その予後,再発様式について検討した.結果:病理組織学的検査での深達度はpM:49例,pSM:121例,pMP:28例,pSS:7例,pSE:1例であった.pN1をpSMに10例,pMPに9例,pSSに3例 ...
