Minimally Invasive Surgery for Upper Abdominal Cancer

Minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer has rapidly gained popularity due to the early detection of early gastric cancer. As advances in instruments and the accumulation of laparoscopic experience increase, laparoscopic techniques are being used for less invasive but highly technical procedures. Recent evidence suggests that the short-and long-term outcomes of minimally invasive surgery for early gastric cancer and advanced gastric cancer are comparable to those of conventional open surgery. However, these results should be confirmed by large-scale multicenter prospective randomized controlled clinical trials.© 2014 Baishideng Publishing Group Inc. All rights reserved.

In the early 2000s, robot-assisted surgery emerged as one of the treatment modalities for EGC, and the first robot-assisted gastrectomy (RAG) for EGC was reported by Hashizume et al [11] in 2003. In 2011, singleincision laparoscopic surgery was described for EGC [12] . MIS has revolutionized the surgical approach to gastric cancer for the past two decades, leading to improvements in patients' quality of life by producing less pain, less blood loss, earlier postoperative recovery, and a shorter hospital stay [13][14][15][16][17][18][19] .Currently, MIS is evolving in two major directions [20] . First, MIS techniques are being used in more radical but less invasive procedures, such as totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy or laparoscopic total gastrectomy with D1+ or D2 lymphadenectomy. These procedures are comparable to conventional open surgery and can be performed even in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC) [21][22][23] . Second, MIS is being employed for function-preserving surgery, including pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (PPG), proximal gastrectomy, and limited gastrectomy with sentinel node navigation surgery. These procedures can assist in improving patients' late postoperative function and quality of life [20,[24][25][26] . RECENT ADVANCES IN LAPAROSCOPIC GASTRECTOMYAs advances in instruments and the accumulation of laparoscopic experience increase, laparoscopic techniques are being used for less invasive but highly technical procedures. Totally laparoscopic gastrectomy (TLG) is one example. TLG has gained popularity since Kanaya et al [27] reported the first delta-shaped anastomosis. A recent meta-analysis (five studies, 652 patients) showed that totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy has less bleeding, shorter time to first flatus, and lower rates of postoperative complicat...

“…Among NIR fluorophores, the most used is indocyanine green (ICG), that in addition to its NIR fluorescent emission, it is the only dye that has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for noninvasive NIR-fluorescence imaging for clinical application (to determine blood flow, to perform ophthalmic angiography, and to evaluate sentinel lymph nodes [31–32]). In order to study by FLI the expression of folate receptor (and as a consequence, the proliferation process), FA was conjugated with ICG in different designs [33–34].…”

Cancer is a complex disease, characterized by alteration of different physiological molecular processes and cellular features. Keeping this in mind, the possibility of early identification and detection of specific tumor biomarkers by non-invasive approaches could improve early diagnosis and patient management.Different molecular imaging procedures provide powerful tools for detection and non-invasive characterization of oncological lesions. Clinical studies are mainly based on the use of computed tomography, nuclear-based imaging techniques and magnetic resonance imaging. Preclinical imaging in small animal models entails the use of dedicated instruments, and beyond the already cited imaging techniques, it includes also optical imaging studies. Optical imaging strategies are based on the use of luminescent or fluorescent reporter genes or injectable fluorescent or luminescent probes that provide the possibility to study tumor features even by means of fluorescence and luminescence imaging. Currently, most of these probes are used only in animal models, but the possibility of applying some of them also in the clinics is under evaluation.The importance of tumor imaging, the ease of use of optical imaging instruments, the commercial availability of a wide range of probes as well as the continuous description of newly developed probes, demonstrate the significance of these applications. The aim of this review is providing a complete description of the possible optical imaging procedures available for the non-invasive assessment of tumor features in oncological murine models. In particular, the characteristics of both commercially available and newly developed probes will be outlined and discussed.

“…7 which is defined as LNs along the trunk of left gastric artery between its root and the origin of its ascending branch by Japanese Gastric Cancer Association. Yano et al[34] investigated 130 patients with gastric cancer (3381 LNs) who underwent SNNS by IREE with ICG injection and evaluated LNs by immunohistochemistry (IH) with anti-cytokeratin antibody staining. They reported that 15 patients (27 nodes) were diagnosed without metastasis by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, which turned to metastatic by IH staining.…”

Accurate prediction of lymph node (LN) status is crucially important for appropriate treatment planning in patients with early gastric cancer (EGC). However, consensus on patient and tumor characteristics associated with LN metastasis are yet to be reached. Through systematic search, we identified several independent variables associated with LN metastasis in EGC, which should be included in future research to assess which of these variables remain as significant predictors of LN metastasis. On the other hand, even if we use these promising parameters, we should realize the limitation and the difficulty of predicting LN metastasis accurately. The sentinel LN (SLN) is defined as first possible site to receive cancer cells along the route of lymphatic drainage from the primary tumor. The absence of metastasis in SLN is believed to correlate with the absence of metastasis in downstream LNs. In this review, we have attempted to focus on several independent parameters which have close relationship between tumor and LN metastasis in EGC. In addition, we evaluated the history of sentinel node navigation surgery and the usefulness for EGC.
