Objective:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of robot assisted total gastrectomy plus hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy.Methods:The clinical data of 72 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer and undergoing total gastrectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University from Nov 2021 to May 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into two groups: robot-assisted total gastrectomy (RATG) group, consisting of 30 patients, and laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy (LATG) group, consisting of 42 patients . In the RATG group, the digestive tract was reconstructed by manual suture under the robot scope and Roux-Y reconstruction was performed . In LATG group, digestive tract reconstruction was performed using an in vitro stapler and Roux-Y. The clinicopathological data, perioperative indexes, and postoperative follow-up data of both groups were observed and analyzed.Results:All 72 patients successfully completed the operation without conversion to open laparotomy. The total operation time in RATG group was longer than that in LATG group [(235.2±25.8) min vs. (200.7±40.6) min, t=4.099, P<0.05)].RATG was superior to LATG group in terms of digestive tract reconstruction time, postoperative fluid intake time and hospitalization days,the difference was statistically significant [(36.9±3.0) min vs.(39.4±4.5) min, (4.2±0.5) d vs. (5.2±0.6) d、(9.5±1.6) d vs. (10.8±2.4)d, t=-2.554,-7.135,-2.595, all P<0.05]; In terms of postoperative pathology, the number of lymph node dissection in RATG group was higher than that in LATG group [(29.8±6.2) vs. (26.3±7.5), t=2.197, P<0.05]. Conclusion:The application of delayed disconnection hand-sewn esophagojejunostomy in Da Vinci robot total gastrectomy is safe and feasible for cure-intent total gastrectomy in patients of gastric carcinoma.

Objective:To compare the clinical value of stent assisted intestinal bypass and temporary loop ileostomy in laparoscopic low anterior resection of rectal cancer.Method:In this retrospective analysis, 57 patients undergoing laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University from Jan 2020 to Jan 2022 were divided into intestinal bypass group (36 cases) and loop ileostomy group (21 cases).Result:There were no significant differences in postoperative GI function recovery and postoperative complication rate between the two groups (all P>0.05). The levels of albumin, prealbumin and hemoglobin in the intestinal bypass group were better than those in the ileostomy group when evaluated on 3rd months after operation [(40.5±2.3) g/L vs. (38.1±2.6)g/L、(26.4±2.7)mg/dl vs. (24.5±2.0)mg/dl、(137.6±5.9) g/L vs. (134.0±7.0) g/L, t=3.605、2.743、2.085, all P<0.05]. Hospital expenses of the intestinal bypass group was lower [(571 000±7 500) yuan vs. (69 300±9 100) yuan, t=-5.477, P<0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with traditional ileostomy, the stent assisted intestinal bypass reduces trauma with lower expenses and improves patients' status after laparoscopic low anterior resection for rectal cancer.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of FOLFOX (5-fluorouracil + calcium folinate + oxaliplatin) hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (FOLFOX-HAIC) combined with immune and targeted therapy as triple combination therapy for patients with single China Liver Cancer Staging (CNLC) Ⅰb hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:A total of 20 patients with single CNLC Ⅰb hepatocellular carcinoma who received FOLFOX-HAIC combined with immune and targeted therapy as triple combination therapy in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from October 2021 to August 2022 were included. The clinical data of all patients was retrospectively analyzed. There were 18 males and 2 females, with the age of (55.1±9.9) years. Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 and Modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST) were used to evaluate the efficacy of FOLFOX-HAIC combined with immune and targeted therapy, and the clinical safety of triple combination therapy was evaluated by common terminology criteria for adverse events 4.0.Results:According to RECIST 1.1, objective response rate of 20 patients was 70.0% (14/20) and disease control rate was 100.0% (20/20) after 2 cycles of treatment (one cycle of FOLFOX-HAIC plus programmed death-1 antibody). According to mRECIST, objective response rate was 90.0% (18/20) and the disease control rate was 100.0% (20/20) after 2 cycles of treatment. Following the treatment, 12 patients (60.0%) received liver tumor resection, and all of them achieved R 0 resection, 2 patients (10.0%) received radiotherapy, 3 patients (15.0%) stopped drug treatment for surgery, 2 patients (10.0%) refused surgery, and 1 patient (5.0%) died of multiple organ failure caused by immune hepatitis. According to pathological results, 3 patients (25.0%, 3/12) achieved pathological complete response, and 4 patients (33.3%, 4/12) achieved major pathological response. In the safety evaluation, the overall incidence of adverse events was 100.0% (20/20). Seven patients (35.0%) had grade 3 adverse events and 1 patient (5.0%) died of multiple organ failure due to immune hepatitis (grade 5). Grade 1-3 adverse events could be relieved after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion:The triple combination therapy of FOLFOX-HAIC combined with immune and targeted therapy is safe and has high objective response rate and disease control rate, which could be a new strategy for the neoadjuvant treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma.
