Billroth II With Braun Anastomosis Versus Roux‐En‐Y Reconstruction Following Distal Gastrectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
The efficacy of Billroth II with Braun (BIIB) anastomosis in laparoscopic distal gastrectomy remains uncertain. We aimed to perform a systematic review and meta‐analysis comparing BIIB with Roux en Y (RY) for distal laparoscopic gastrectomy. ABSTRACT Introduction The efficacy of Billroth II with Braun (BIIB) anastomosis in laparoscopic distal ...

Is AMP‐activated protein kinase activation a central mechanism of cardio‐metabolic outcomes after metabolic and bariatric surgery?

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective treatment for severe obesity. It usually results in spectacular weight loss, associated with improvements of obesity‐associated comorbidities. The mechanisms underlying these benefits are not fully understood but could involve a postoperative activation of the enzyme 5′ AMP‐activated ...

Diagnosis and treatment of gastric abscess by endoscopic ultrasound: A mini‐review of the preliminary application

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
Abstract Gastric abscess is a rare condition caused by gastric barrier damage. It is easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice as a cancer recurrence or submucosal tumor, especially after surgery or endoscopic submucosal dissection. With a relatively high mortality rate, the cause and clinical characteristics of gastric abscesses are obscure.

Two-stage esophagojejunal anastomosis: An alternative reconstruction in emergency gastrectomy for high-risk gastric cancer patients

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2022
Emergency total gastrectomy for patients with gastric cancer who are in shock carries a high risk of esophagojejunal anastomosis leakage. No alternatives have been reported to reduce this risk. This study reports two patients with gastric cancer who were

Efficacy and Safety of a 6‐Month Placement of a Fully Covered Self‐Expanding Metal Stent for Refractory or Recurrent Hepaticojejunostomy Anastomotic Stricture via Balloon Enteroscopy‐Assisted Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography

DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (BE‐assisted ERCP) is performed for hepaticojejunostomy anastomotic stricture (HJAS) after biliary‐enteric anastomosis. Although endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) and plastic stent (PS) placement are commonly performed, they result in high recurrence rates ...
