Objective To investigate the changes of gastrointestinal hormone and body composition in patients with gastric cancer after gastrectomy. Methods Thirty-eight patients with gastric cancer were divided into three groups: distal gastrectomy group, proximal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group and 9 volunteers as control group. The nutrition status and gastrointestinal function were evaluated by four times. The time of postoperative first anal exsufflation and defacation, hospital stay and complications were recorded, and the pre-meal and the post-meal level of gastrointestinal hormones 1 month after operation were detected. Results Compared with control group, the basic levels of somatostatin (SS), cholecystokinin (CCK) and motilin (MTL) of distal gastrectomy group, proximal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group significantly increased (Plt;0.01). The post-meal level of gastrointestinal hormones significantly increased as compared with the pre-meal level in each group (Plt;0.01). The CCK in proximal gastrectomy group was lower than that of distal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group (Plt;0.01). The postoperative body weight and body composition in each group decreased. One month after operation, patients of total gastrectomy group got the lowest body weight (Plt;0.01). The decreasing level of fat free mass (FFM) was listed by total gastrectomy group, proximal gastrectomy group and distal gastrectomy group. The edema index had significant difference in distal gastrectomy group, proximal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group (Plt;0.01), and total gastrectomy group was the most obvious. The postoperative passing flatus and defecation time and average hospital stay in total gastrectomy group were significantly prolonged (Plt;0.05). The gastrointestinal symptoms score among three groups was significantly different (Plt;0.05). Conclusion There are different changes of gastrointestinal hormone and body composition in patients with gastric cancer after different gastrectomy, the basic levels of SS, CCK and MTL of distal gastrectomy group, proximal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group are higher than those of control group. The CCK of proximal gastrectomy group is lower than that of distal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group. Patients received total gastrectomy lose much body weight and FFM and get higher edema index.

Objective To analyze the clinicopathologic characteristics of remnant gastric cancer （RGC）. Methods The clinical data of 114 patients with RGC treated in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Northern Sichuan MedicalCollege and The General Hospital of Chinese People’s Liberation Army from March 2000 to May 2008 were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The clinicopathologic characteristics between the patients with primary benign diseases and those with malignant diseases were evaluated. Results A total of 114 cases，the age was （62.6±11.3） years，and the males versus females was 4.7∶1.0. Most patients （76.2%，64/84） were diagnosed at advanced stages （consistent with pT），and the proportion of pT1 stage cases was only 23.8% （20/84），tumor invasion pT4 was 60.7% （51/84）. It was more common that tumor directly invaded adjacent organs or structures （27.4%，23/84），lymph nodes positive （42.9%，36/84），and distant metastasis （27.2%，31/114）. The location of distant metastasis was usually confined in the abdominal cavity （93.5%，29/31），and the peritoneum disseminated was the most commonly structures （67.7%，21/31）. Histologically，the incidence of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma （76.7%，79/103） was the mostly histologic grade as well as the diffuse type （78.6%，81/103） was the mostly Laurén classification. Between the patients with primary benign diseases and those with initial malignant disease，the initial gastrectomy or the methods of reconstruction had significantly differences （both P=0.000）. The median time from initial resection to development of RGC was 30.0 years in the patients with original benign disease，contrary to 3.3 years in those with previous malignant disease （P=0.000）. Both primary diseases （benign or malignant） and the age at initial gastrectomy were the major influencing factors for the time of RGC developed （P＜0.05）. For pathohistology characters，except signet-ring cell carcinoma （P=0.045）， pT4b （P=0.049），pN stage （P=0.025），and Borrmann classification （P=0.005），there were no significant differences between the patients with previous benign diseases and those with original malignant disease，as well as the resectability rate，curative resection （R0） rate，and overall survival rate （P＞0.05）. Conclusions It is almost unaffected by originalbenign diseases or malignant diseases for clinicopathologic characteristics including the treatment option and prognostic factors.It is necessary and feasibility to form a pattern of endoscopic follow-up for RGC.
ObjectiveTo explore feasibility and advantages of hand-assisted laparoscopic radical resection for remnant gastric cancer. MethodsThe clinical data of 26 patients with remnant gastric cancer who underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic (hand-assisted group, n=13) or open (open group, n=13) radical resection from December 2007 to May 2016 in this hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The perioperative outcomes were compared between these two groups. ResultsThere was no conversion to open surgery in the hand-assisted group. Compared with the open group, the incision length was significantly reduced (P=0.000), the intraoperative blood loss was significantly decreased (P=0.038), postoperative the first anal exhaust time was significantly shortened (P=0.025) in the hand-assisted group. The operation time, the number of lymph nodes dissection, and the incidence of postoperative complications had no statistically significant differences between these two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionThe preliminary results of limited cases in this study show that hand-assisted laparoscopic radical resection for remnant gastric cancer is safe and feasible, it has several advantages including small incisions, mild intraoperative hemorrhage, rapid postoperative recovery, better recent clinical therapeutic outcome and so on as compared with open surgery.
To find the relation between the damage of gastric remnant mucosal barrier and the precancerous lesion of gastric remnant mucosa, in the process of the canine gastric remnant precarcinogenesis induced by N-methyN’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), we performed regularly the esophagogastroscopy and the mucosal biopsy.At the same time, we also measured gastric transmucosal potential difference and intracellular DNA content of remnant mucosa.We found that the more severe the damage of gastric remnant mucosal barrier was , the greater the malignant capacity of gastric remnant mucosal was.Our study suggests that the damage of gastric remnant mucosal barrier plays an important role in the gastric remnant mucosal precarcinogenesis.
Eight cases of gastric remnant carcinoma are reported and its possible etiology, course of disease, prevention and treatmant are discussed together with literature review. Duodenal ulcer, except with serious complications, should be treated conservatively. For benign gastric ulcer gastrectomy may be considered in individual case, but the operative indication can be controlled by its lesions. Regular follow-up study should be performed on patients who had gastrectomy for more than five years.
Objective To study the features of lymph node metastasis in gastric stump cancer （GSC） in order to provide the basis for the reasonable lymph node dissection in the GSC lymphadenectomy. Methods Twenty-two GSC patients accepted residual radical gastrectomy and 50 primary gastric cancer patients accepted distal D2 lymphadenectomy by the same surgeon from June 2004 to June 2012 at the department of general surgery-pediatric surgery of the People’s Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were included in this retrospective study. And the clinicopathologic factors and lymph node metastasis were compared in two groups. Results The combined organ resection rate in the primary gastric cancer patients was significantly lower than that in the GSC patients 〔14.00% （7/50） versus 54.55% （12/22），χ2=12.929，P=0.000〕. In the lymph node metastasis，the total positive rate and No.10 positive rate of lymph node metastasis in the GSC patients were significantly higher than those in the primary gastric cancer patients 〔30.56% （103/337） versus 22.13% （208/940），χ2=9.583，P=0.002；52.17% （12/23） versus 17.39% （4/23），χ2=6.133，P=0.013〕. The positive rate of lympl node micrometastasis between the GSC patients and primary gastric cancer patients was no significant difference〔2.97% （10/337） versus 1.49% （14/940），χ2=2.939，P=0.086〕 . There was 4/12 lymph node micrometastasis in the GSC patients，which was 0/4 in the primary gastric cancer patients. The positive rate of the jejunal mesentery lymph node metastasis was 35.71% （5/14） in the GSC patients. Conclusions GSC has a unique pattern in lymph node metastasis. D2 dissection and jejunsl mesentery lymph node dissection should be performed for these patients，especially，on No.10 lymph nodes. If needed，en bloc resection with invaded adjacent organs should be considered．

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of the remnant stomach after gastric bypass (GB) surgery on the weight loss and glucose metabolism in rats with obese and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsHigh fat feeding for one month combined with intraperitoneal injection of low-dose streptozotocin was used to induce obese rats with T2DM. Twenty-four rats with obese and type T2DM successfully established were randomly divided into resectional gastric bypass (R-GB) group, GB surgery (GB group), and sham operation (SO) group, eight rats in each group. The weight loss and anti-diabetic effect of the R-GB and GB were compared. Body weight, food intake, and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were measured at week 1 before operation and week 1–8 after the operation. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and insulin tolerance test (ITT) were performed using tail venous blood at week 1 before operation and on week 8 after operation (at 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min). The levels of serum glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1), gastrin, insulin, and glucagon at week 1 before operation and at week 8 after operation were detected, meanwhile the homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index was calculated.Results① The body weight and food intake of the rats in the R-GB group and GB group were lower than those in the SO group after operation (P<0.05) and which were lower than before operation (P<0.05), but the differences were not significant between the R-GB group and GB group after operation (P>0.05). ② The levels of FBG in the R-GB group only at week 1–4 after operation were lower than those before operation (P<0.05), while which in the GB group at week 1–8 after operation were lower than those before operation and were lower than in the SO group (P<0.05), but which in the R-GB group only at week 2–4 after operation were lower than in the SO group and which were higher than that in the GB group from 3 to 8 weeks after operation (P<0.05). ③ The area under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUCs) of blood glucoses of OGTT and ITT and HOMA-IR index at week 8 after operation were lower than those before operation (P<0.05) in the GB group and which were lower than those the other two groups (P<0.05). ④ The AUC of gastrin level at week 8 after operation was lower than that before operation in the R-GB group and which lower than that in the other two groups (P<0.05). The AUC values of insulin and glucagon levels at week 8 after operation were lower than those before operation in the GB group and which lower than those in the other two groups (P<0.05). The AUC of GLP-1 level at week 8 after operation was higher than that before operation in the GB group and which higher than that in the other two groups (P<0.05).ConclusionsGB could remarkably improve glucose metabolism and weight loss in obese rat with T2DM. Gastric remnant gastrectomy following GB has a remarkable anti-diabetic effect, but it doesn’t effect on weight loss.
