Abstract:
Objective:To study the relationship between gastric fundus size and postoperative gastroparesis and to find effective ways to prevent postoperative gastroparesis in high-risk patients.Methods:We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 276 gastric cancer patients undergoing radical gastrectomy from 2015 to 2016. The gastric fundus volume/total gastric volume (FV/TV) ratio was measured by computed tomography (CT) and comparative study between the gastroparesis group and the non-gastroparesis group was carried out in terms of postoperative gastroparesis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive performance. Single-factor and multiple-factor analyses were performed to filter clinically significant predictive factors of gastroparesis. Then, we increased the sample size to 304 patients whose FV/TV ratio was >19.4%. The different surgical methods and perioperative management of these patients were analysed. The chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were performed to identify effective independent factors for preventing gastroparesis.Results:The FV/TV ratio in the gastroparesis group was significantly higher than that in the non-gastroparesis group ( P<0.05). A cut-off value of 19.4% was selected by ROC curve analysis, at which the FV/TV ratio had a sensitivity of 76.2% and a specificity of 53.7%. In 304 patients in the second retrospective study, the incidence of gastroparesis was 9.2%. Gastroparesis was significantly reduced in patients with residual gastric size <1/3 ( P<0.05) and early postoperative gastrointestinal decompression ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The FV/TV ratio can effectively predict the risk of postoperative gastroparesis preoperatively. Small residual stomach and early postoperative gastrointestinal decompression are effective measures to prevent gastroparesis in high-risk patients.
