Abstract: We demonstrated that the intraoperative dissemination of gastric cancer can occur during gastrectomy.

“…The detachment of cancer cells from the serosa of primary tumor followed by their attachment to peritoneal mesothelial cells is thought to be crucially important processes for metastasis formation. Meanwhile, recent studies have shown that cancer cell spillage occurs during surgery due to tumor manipulation or lymph node dissection, and such viable cancer cells can also be sources of peritoneal metastasis [ 4 9 ]. Therefore, effective intraoperative peritoneal lavage is important to prevent peritoneal recurrence of GC because it can directly remove and/or kill these viable cancer cells before their implantation on the peritoneum.…”

“…Free cancer cells spilled into the peritoneal cavity due to tumor manipulation and lymph node dissection during surgery can be a source of peritoneal metastasis [ 4 9 ]. Thus, intraoperative peritoneal lavage plays an important role to reduce the risk of peritoneal recurrence because it can directly remove and kill such viable cancer cells.…”

“…With the progression of gastrointestinal and gynecological tumors, cancer cells exfoliate from the serosal surface and scatter into the peritoneal cavity as IFCCs, which are a major cause of peritoneal recurrence [14] . Also, division of blood vessels and resection of lymph nodes during the surgery could make cancer cells spill into peritoneal cavity to form IFCCs [15] .…”

“…OPTC can be detected by conventional cytology and immunocytochemical staining of various tumor markers. 6 A few studies have suggested that surgery itself induces the spread of tumor cells into the peritoneal cavity in patients with gastric cancer 7,8 and colorectal cancer. 9,10 During open pancreatic resection, the tumor is regularly manipulated and potentially even compressed by hand during dissection along the superior mesenteric artery, although this differs depending on the surgical technique applied.…”
