Total Gastrectomy With Roux-en-Y Esophagojejunostomy in Treatment of Gastric Cancer

Robotic-assisted laparoscopic Roux-en-Y choledochojejunostomy in pigs

“…Mean operating time was 140 min — compared to 81.5 min in the open procedure. In our study, we reconnected the proximal jejunum approximately 40 cm distal to the stapling line, in accordance with prior studies that demonstrated reflux up to 35 cm . Gallbladder removal was included to provide a setup for possible future robotic‐assisted radical surgery for tumors of the CBD.…”

Sarcoidosis in gastric cancer at the time of diagnosis: A case report

“…The patient was referred to the Department of General Surgery at the first Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, having provided the appropriate informed consent, and received radical total gastrectomy combined with a Roux-en-Y procedure ( 5 ). A superficial ulcerative mass was identified inside the small curved side below the cardia and multiple enlarged lymph nodes were identified around the stomach and liver duodenum ligament, the largest of which was 2.5×2.0 cm in diameter.…”

Clinical results of various reconstructions employed after total gastrectomy

“…1). This was first applied by Orr (1947) [4], but later utilized in a large series by Scott and Weidner (1956) [5]. The comparisons made in these reports were anecdotal, and without major evidence for a change in nutritional state or symptom control, but there was clear-cut evidence of a decrease in esophageal reflux after total gastrectomy with this Roux-en-Y reconstruction.…”
