Abstract:
Objective:To investigate whether elderly patients over 70 years of age with gastric stump carcinoma should be treated with operation and which surgical approaches should be selected.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 36 patients with gastric stump carcinoma without any significant surgical contraindications hospitalized in lanzhou general hospital of lanzhou military area from January 2001 to January 2013.All these patients were over 70 years of age,with an active score of 0-3.The patients were divided into surgical and non-surgical treatment groups,and the surgical treatment group was further subdivided into radical surgery group and palliative surgery group.The treatment modalities,complications and survival of each group were analyzed.Results:A one-year and a three-year survival rate of surgical treatment group was 45.5% and 22.7%,respectively,whereas the one-year and three-year survival rate of non-surgical treatment group was only 18.2% and 0%,the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05).In the surgical treatment group,the radical surgery subgroup had a better survival rate than palliative surgery subgroup,with a one-year and a three-year survival rate of 58.3% and 33.3% respectively for the former,and 30% and 10% for the latter.The incidence of complications of radical surgery group and palliative surgery group was of no significant difference (P > 0.05).Conclusions:Elderly patients over 70 years of age with gastric stump carcinoma can still benefit from radical surgery;while palliative surgery does not improve the survival rate of the patients,radical surgery is appropriate for elderly patients with gastric stump carcinoma.
