The pathological changes of the gastric rumen produced by rocking stress in 38 young male albino rats fed on low protein diet for a short period and in 20 young male albino rats fed on low protein diet only as the control rats, were investigated macroscopically and histologically. The ulcerative lesions of the gastric rumen were observed in 17 out of 38 experimental rats accompanied with hyperplasia and cornification of the ruminal epithelial layer and more or less edematous changes of the tunica propria near the ulcer site. The authors, finding of the ruminal ulcer in albino rats produced by rocking stress associated with feeding on a low protein diet for a short period were compared with the results of others. The authors discussed other opinions concerning of the gastric ruminal ulcer of the albino rats produced in various ways.

The Korean Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery 2001;34(2):189-193
Gastrobronchial fistula is an extremely rare condition. It is usually associated with trauma, esophagogastric surgery, subphrenic abscess, gastric ulcer, and neoplasm. A case of recurrent gastrobronchial fistula secondary to a benign gastric ulcer 2 and 3 years after Ivor Lewis procedure for treatment of esophageal carcinoma is described. The literature of this subject is reviewed and discussed.

A gastropericardial fistula, defined as penetration of a gastric lesion into the pericardium, is a rare occurrence. Such a fistula is usually associated with a huge ulcer in the gastric fundus, an ulcer within a hiatus hernia, a history of esophagogastric surgery, the concurrent use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The patient in this case presented with shoulder pain and melena, caused by a gastropericardial fistula that had occurred as a late complication of postoperative esophagogastrostomy and a refractory gastric ulcer. Despite the severity of the condition, the patient showed great improvement after medical treatment and the fistula was cured at the end.

A 47-year-old man was referred to Seoul National University Bundang Hospital with an ulcerative lesion in the midbody of the stomach. Computed tomography revealed that he was a situs inversus totalis (SIT) patient. Robot-assisted distal gastrectomy with D1+beta lymph node dissection and Billroth II anastomosis were performed. With the aid of robotic surgery, the surgeon didn't need to change his position and could perform the surgery without any confusion resulting from the patient's reversed anatomy. The operation took 300 minutes, with no intraoperative complications. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 8. The final pathologic report was pT3N3a by American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th tumor-node-metastasis staging. We successfully performed robot-assisted distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer in a SIT patient. We believe that this is the first case of robotic surgery reported in a SIT patient with gastric cancer.

PURPOSE: The treatment of choice for gastric submucosal tumors (SMT) is surgical resection. Recent advanced techniques has facilitated more extensive application of laparoscopic surgery to most types of resectable gastric SMTs. The aim of this study was to verify the efficacy of laparoscopic resection for treatment of gastric SMT through analysis of outcomes obtained at a single center. METHODS: A total of 141 patients who underwent laparoscopic resection for treatment of gastric SMT were enrolled between April 2003 and June 2011. Analysis of the demographics, tumor characteristics, and surgical or oncological outcomes of these patients was performed. RESULTS: Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) were the most common pathologic findings (90 cases), and the upper third of the stomach was the most common location (70 cases). Wedge resections were performed in 128 patients and major gastrectomies were performed in 13 patients. The mean surgical time was 102 minutes, which was reduced to a stable 70 minutes after the 30th case. The surgical time for tumors located on the posterior or lesser portion of the upper third of the stomach was longer than that for other lesions. Twelve postoperative complications, including two cases of intra-abdominal bleeding, one case of marginal ulcer bleeding, and one case of leakage occurred. However, there was no occurrence of complications after the 70th case. During the follow-up period, two patients suffered recurrent GIST. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic surgery for treatment of gastric SMT is safe and feasible, particularly as the surgeon develops greater skill with increased experience. Laparoscopic resection is useful for treatment of any type of gastric SMT.

BACKGROUND: Gastric cancer that occurs 5 or more years after a partial gastric resection for benign disease is defined as gastric remnant cancer. The purpose of this study was to examine the clinicopathologic features and the treatment results of sixteen cases of gastric remnant cancer following partial gastrectomies for benign gastroduodenal diseases. METHODS: Sixteen patients who underwent operations for gastric cancer in the remnant stomach from January 1980 to December 1996 were evaluated retrospectively. RESULTS: The mean age was 51.5 years, and 15 patients were male. All of them had undergone surgical treatment for benign disorders, including gastric ulcers (14 cases) and duodenal ulcers (2 cases), and the mean time interval between the primary operation and the diagnosis of gastric cancer was 24.5 years. Most patients presented vague, nonspecific symptoms, except two cases of early diagnosis without symptom. Surgical resection of the remnant stomach was performed in 13 patients of which 11 patients underwent a curative resection with curative intent. Of these 13 patients, a combined resection of adjacent organs was performed in 10 cases. Fifteen patients had advanced gastric cancer, most of which involved depth of invasions to seromuscular layers, and lymph-node metastases were found in 8 patients. Most of patients who underwent bypass surgery or palliative resection died within 1 year of the operation. Among the 11 patients who underwent a curative resection, 3 patients died within 1 month of the operation due to postoperative complications, 2 patients died of recurrent cancer, and another 6 patients are alive without evidence of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Eearly detection of gastric cancer in the remnant stomach by periodic follow up is important, especially in high-risk groups, and the application of aggressive surgical treatment will provide for better patient survival.

PURPOSETo compare the therapeutic effects of different doses of intravenous esomeprazole on treating trauma patients with stress ulcer bleeding.
METHODSA total of 102 trauma patients with stress ulcer bleeding were randomly divided into 2 groups: 52 patients were assigned to the high-dose group who received 80 mg intravenous esomeprazole, and then 8 mg/h continuous infusion for 3 days; 50 patients were assigned to the conventional dose group who received 40 mg intravenous esomeprazole sodium once every 12 h for 72 h.
RESULTSCompared with the conventional dose group, the total efficiency of the high-dose group and conventional dose group was 98.08% and 86.00%, respectively (p < 0.05), the hemostatic time was 22.10 h ± 5.18 h and 28.27 h ± 5.96 h, respectively (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONBoth doses of intravenous esomeprazole have good hemostatic effects on stress ulcer bleeding in trauma patients. The high-dose esomeprazole is better for hemostasis.
