Impact of Intraoperative Fluid Volume on Complications After Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: Analysis of 8782 Patients From the Japanese National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter cohort study of 8782 esophagectomies in Japan found that higher intraoperative fluid volume significantly increased the risk of pneumonia after minimally invasive esophagectomy. Avoiding fluid overload may help reduce postoperative pneumonia.

Impact of Tumor Location on the Efficacy of Lateral and Mesenteric Lymph Node Dissection in Patients With Rectal Cancer Treated by Upfront Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study examined the impact of tumor location on lymph node metastasis (LNM) patterns and the efficacy of lymph node dissection in rectal cancer. Analyzing 882 patients who underwent total mesorectal excision with lateral lymph node dissection, we found that mesenteric LNM rates were higher in tumors located more orally, whereas lateral LNM rates ...

Non‐Flap Tunnel Technique (NFTT): A Novel Minimally Invasive Reconstruction Method After Proximal Gastrectomy for Gastric and Esophagogastric Junction Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study introduces the non‐flap tunnel technique (NFTT) as a simplified method for esophagogastrostomy following minimally invasive proximal gastrectomy. Compared with the conventional double‐flap technique, NFTT significantly reduces reconstruction time and the incidence of anastomotic stenosis, while maintaining comparable anti‐reflux outcomes ...

Gastric Distension Index: A Novel Radiographic Marker Associated With Postoperative Gastric Stasis After Gastrectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study introduces the Hiki Index (HI), a novel radiographic metric based on upright abdominal X‐rays, to objectively assess postoperative gastric dilatation after gastrectomy. The HI demonstrated strong predictive value for gastrointestinal symptoms and the need for therapeutic intervention, offering a practical tool for early detection and ...
