Abstract:
Segmental gastrectomy is a common function preserving operation, and its combination with sentinel lymph node navigation technology shows a broad prospect in the treatment of early gastric cancer. Commonly anastomosis methods include the follows: (1) Hand-sewn anastomosis: this method is relatively simple, reduces the use of stapler, and can effectively reduce surgical cost. However, laparotomy or small-incision assisted laparoscopic surgery is required to accomplish anastomosis, so the surgical wound is relatively large. (2) Delta anastomosis: this anastomosis is entirely endoscopic, requiring no small incision with less surgical trauma. However, due to the presence of residual cavities in the small curvature of the side-to-side anastomosis, and the possibility of excessive incision of the posterior wall of the stomach, which may shorten the pyloric sleeve, there is an increased risk of gastric stasis after the operation. (3) Hybrid technique: this anastomosis method is safe and effective. However, it requires total endoscopic gastric anterior wall suture, which represents higher requirements for surgeons. Therefore, surgeons experienced in minimally invasive surgeries are recommended to perform this anastomosis. (4) Puncture technique: this anastomotic method is end-to-end anastomosis with low risk of gastric stasis, and is applicable for entirely endoscopic anastomosis. However, the stapler is not typically used for gastrointestinal surgery, which brings certain limitations to clinical promotion. These anastomoses have their own advantages and disadvantages, and their effects on gastric function are also controversial. In conclusion, the development of segmental gastrectomy is still in its infancy, and prospective multicenter randomized controlled trials are awaited to confirm the safety of oncology and standardize the techniques.
