Journal of Practical Medicine 2002;435(11):8-10
A study on 24 patients with the relapsed gastric cancer /764 patients with gastric cancer operated in ViÖt §øc Hospital during 1993-1997 has shown that the number of the relapsed gastric cancer account for 3,1% total number of operation for gastric cancer. 38,3% patients received the second operation within the first 6 - 24 month of the first operation. 70,8% patients found the invasive tumor vegetation in connective edge. Only 16,7% patients found non- invasive relapsed cancer in connective edge., short cut (20,8%); biopsy testing operation and jejunum-open for eating (12,5%); biopsy testing operation (37,5%).The post operative mortality rate(12,5%).

Acute perforated gastric cancer (GC) is defined as an acute perforation of primary GC. It is a rare surgical acute abdominal disease that is mainly caused by advanced GC. The onset of acute perforation of GC is related to the depth of invasion. Preoperative diagnosis is very difficult for GC with acute perforation. The main method to confirm malignant perforation is intraoperative frozen section, which also is the primary clinical standard at present. The primary treatment for GC with acute perforation is surgical intervention, which is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Therefore, we should first consider short-term safety and choose the surgical approach based on the patient's condition, tumor stage and surgeon's experience. The physiological and operative severity score for the enumeration of mortality and morbidity (POSSUM) can provide a comprehensive assessment for patient's condition and surgical risk. Secondly, long-term survival should be considered and R0 resection is the most important. When R0 resection can not be achieved in the initial treatment phase, palliative gastrectomy should be avoided. A simple perforation repair can provide an opportunity for two-stage laparoscopic surgery, but the timing of the second stage operation is controversial. We advocate that advanced GC with acute perforation undergoing initial perforation repair can receive subsequent neoadjuvant therapy. A second stage surgery should depend on the response to therapy. Cases of acute perforation of gastric cancer are few. At present, high-level evidence is absent for surgical treatment at home and abroad, and there is no guideline or consensus for diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to explore and establish a comprehensive process of diagnosis and surgical treatment for acute perforated GC, which may be very helpful for first-line surgeons and can also improve the short-term outcomes and long-term survival for GC with acute perforation.

4.Current status and progress in gastric cancer with liver metastasis.
Chinese Medical Journal 2011;124(3):445-456
OBJECTIVEThis review discusses the current status and progress in studies on gastric cancer with liver metastasis (GCLM), involving the routes, subtypes, and prognosis of GCLM; the genes and molecules associated with metastasis; the feasibility and value of each imaging modality; and current treatment options.
DATA SOURCESThe data used in this review were mainly from Medline and PubMed published in English from 2005 to August 2010. The search terms were "gastric cancer" and "liver metastasis".
STUDY SELECTIONArticles regarding the characteristics, diagnostic modalities, and various therapeutic options of GCLM were selected.
RESULTSThe prognosis of GCLM is influenced by the clinicopathological characteristics of primary tumors, as well as the presence of liver metastases. Improved understanding of related genes and molecules will lead to the development of methods of early detection and targeted therapies. For the diagnosis of GCLM, each imaging modality has its relative benefits. There remains no consensus regarding therapeutic options.
CONCLUSIONSEarly detection and characterization of liver metastases is crucial for the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Multidisciplinary team discussions are required to design optimal treatment strategies, which should be based on the clinicopathological characteristics of each patient.

5.Clinical aspect of new international gastric cancer staging system.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2013;16(2):111-113
The 7th UICC/AJCC Gastric Cancer TNM Staging System includes major revisions of pT and pN classification. The Japanese Classification and UICC/AJCC TNM System have reached consistency in staging of gastric cancer. There are some new topics of lymphadenectomy in the new guidelines. The new TNM system accepts the database from Japan and Korea and it will be more accurate to predict the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. The rationality of splenectomy, total bursectomy, dissection of No.13 and No.14 lymph nodes is still not very clear and needs more evidences. D2 lymphadenectomy is the recommended surgical approach both in Eastern and Western countries. The benefit of paraaortic lymphadenectmoy for selected patients needs further evidences as well. The international gastric cancer staging project will collect the data from 23 countries and the new staging system will be applicable worldwide.

While endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is widely used to treat gastrointestinal tumors, it is rarely used for subepithelial tumors (SETs) originating from the muscularis propria of the esophagus and gastric cardia because of the risk of perforation and problems with inadequate space and field of view during procedures. Submucosal tunneling endoscopic resection (STER) is a new therapeutic method for treating SETs in specific locations in the esophagus and stomach. This technique is highly skill-dependent, using a mucosal flap that covers a deeper part of the gut wall, but is safe and minimally invasive compared with conventional endoscopic approaches such as ESD in SETs originating from the muscularis propria.We report a patient who underwent STER to remove a SET located at the gastric cardia. The patient recovered without any complications. We believe that our case shows the efficacy and safety of the STER technique for patients with a SET originating from the muscularis propria.

PURPOSE: The presence of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer and its treatment might aggravate patient nutritional status. Malnutrition is one of the major factors affecting the postoperative course. We evaluated changes in perioperative nutritional status and risk factors of postoperative severe malnutrition in the GI cancer patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nutritional status was prospectively evaluated using patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA) perioperatively between May and September 2011. RESULTS: A total of 435 patients were enrolled. Among them, 279 patients had been diagnosed with gastric cancer and 156 with colorectal cancer. Minimal invasive surgery was performed in 225 patients. PG-SGA score increased from 4.5 preoperatively to 10.6 postoperatively (p<0.001). Ten patients (2.3%) were severely malnourished preoperatively, increasing to 115 patients (26.3%) postoperatively. In gastric cancer patients, postoperative severe malnourishment increased significantly (p<0.006). In univariate analysis, old age (>60, p<0.001), male sex (p=0.020), preoperative weight loss (p=0.008), gastric cancer (p<0.001), and open surgery (p<0.001) were indicated as risk factors of postoperative severe malnutrition. In multivariate analysis, old age, preoperative weight loss, gastric cancer, and open surgery remained significant as risk factors of severe malnutrition. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of severe malnutrition among GI cancer patients in this study increased from 2.3% preoperatively to 26.3% after an operation. Old age, preoperative weight loss, gastric cancer, and open surgery were shown to be risk factors of postoperative severe malnutrition. In patients at high risk of postoperative severe malnutrition, adequate nutritional support should be considered.

9.Diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment of gastric remnant cancer.
Chinese Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery 2013;16(2):132-134
Gastric remnant cancer (GRC) is defined as cancer in the remnant stomach after partial gastrectomy. The incidence of GRC is rising in recent years. The carcinogenesis, development, and metastasis of GRC are different from primary gastric cancer. The early detection of GRC should be based on rational surveillance of patients following gastrectomy. For early stage GRC, endoscopic resection is one of the safe and effective methods. For advanced GRC, the primary treatment alternative is surgical resection. Minimally invasive procedures such as laparoscopic exploration, laparoscopic-assisted resection of GRC are still safe choices for experienced surgeons.

OBJECTIVETo compare the survival rate of proximal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy in the treatment of esophagogastric junction (EGJ) adenocarcinoma (Siewert II( types), and to provide reference for clinical choice.
METHODSA total of 533 patients with Siewet II( type EGJ adenocarcinoma were screened. All the patients underwent radical operations and were pathologically diagnosed as Siewet II( type EGJ adenocarcinoma in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases from May 2008 to March 2014. These patients all had complete followed-up data. Finally, 234 patients were enrolled into the retrospective study, and divided into proximal gastrectomy group(117 patients) and total gastrectomy group (117 patients) based on the matching of age, sex, tumor size, TNM staging, and differentiation. The survival rate was compared between the two groups.
RESULTSIn proximal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy group, the overall 3-year survival rate was 65.6% and 62.6% respectively, and the overall 5-year survival rate was 53.8% and 44.5% respectively. No significant difference was found between the two groups (P=0.768). In subgroup analyses of 3-year survival rate between proximal gastrectomy group and total gastrectomy group, the results were as follows: 72.8% and 80.4% respectively (P=0.423) for tumor diameter ≤4 cm, 57.9% and 46.5% (P=0.239) for tumor diameter >4 cm, 83.3% and 83.3% (P=0.998) for high differentiated EGJ adenocarcinoma, 68.2% and 53.3% (P=0.270) for moderate differentiated EGJ adenocarcinoma, 56.1% and 69.6% (P=0.280) for poorly differentiated EGJ adenocarcinoma, 64.8% and 56.0% (P=0.451) for mucinous EGJ adenocarcinoma, 80.0% and 76.9% (P=0.912) for T1-2 stage EGJ adenocarcinoma, 64.3% and 60.4% (P=0.610) for T3 stage, 50.0% and 62.5% (P=0.953) for T4a stage, 92.3% and 100% (P=0.380) for stage I( EGJ adenocarcinoma, 79.6% and 66.3%(P=0.172) for stage II(, 42.6% and 49.5% (P=0.626) for stage I I(. All above differences between the two groups were not significant(all P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONProximal gastrectomy and total gastrectomy are comparable in terms of 3-year and 5-year survival rates.
