Summary: This study compared outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) vs. open total gastrectomy (OTG) for gastric adenocarcinoma using a national cancer database. The results indicated that LTG and OTG have comparable 30-day mortality, 90-day mortality, and long-term survival for total gastrectomy cases performed for gastric adenocarcinoma.

Summary: Analysis of the National Cancer Database found that LG is associated with advantages in lymph node yield, hospital stay, and unplanned re-admission rate, with no significant differences in postoperative complications and mortality rates. Median survival was similar between LG and OG. This study demonstrates that equivalent long-term outcomes are being achieved between LG and OG.

Summary: In a multicenter randomized trial conducted in the Netherlands, laparoscopic gastrectomy did not show a significant advantage over open gastrectomy in terms of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and oncological outcomes for Western patients with predominantly advanced gastric cancer undergoing multimodality treatment. Both procedures demonstrated similar results in postoperative complications and oncological efficacy.

Summary: In this study, laparoscopic radical distal gastrectomy (LDG) was found to be a safe and effective procedure for elderly patients with locally advanced distal gastric cancer (AGC-lap). LDG resulted in faster recovery, lower complication rates, and similar oncological outcomes compared to open distal gastrectomy (ODG).

Summary: This study compared perioperative outcomes between 3D and 2D laparoscopic distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients, and found that the 3D group had significantly shorter total operation time and lower postoperative complication rates compared to the 2D group.

Summary: This meta-analysis aims to compare laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) in terms of short-term and long-term surgical outcomes, recovery, and oncological results. The results show that LDG leads to less intraoperative blood loss, faster patient recovery, and fewer complications. Moreover, LDG meets the clinical requirements in terms of lymph node yield, adequacy of resection, and survival.

Summary: This multicenter cohort study compared the surgical and oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) and open total gastrectomy (OTG) in advanced gastric cancer (AGC) patients. The study found that LTG was not inferior to OTG in terms of survival outcomes, and LTG was associated with fewer postoperative complications and shorter hospitalization time.

Summary: This study compared the short-term surgical and oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic versus open gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer. The results showed that laparoscopic gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy is a safe and feasible option with comparable oncological outcomes to traditional open surgery.

Summary: This retrospective study compared the outcomes of laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) in patients with early gastric cancer. The results showed that both approaches had satisfactory surgical results, with LDG being a reasonable option for patients with early gastric cancer.

Summary: This study compared short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic distal radical gastrectomy (LDG) with open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for T4a gastric cancer (GC). The results showed that LDG is feasible and safe for T4a GC and is comparable to ODG in terms of short- and long-term outcomes. LDG may be a favorable option for T4a GC smaller than 5 cm.

Summary: A large-scale multicenter retrospective cohort study compared the outcomes of robotic gastrectomy (RG) and laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) for gastric cancer. The study found that RG had advantages in terms of postoperative complications, blood loss, and lymph node retrieval, while long-term oncological outcomes were similar between the two groups. The study suggests that RG may be an alternative surgical treatment to LG.

Summary: LG is a feasible and safe alternative to OG for patients with locally advanced GC receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy. LG group had significantly lower hospital stay time and intraoperative blood loss compared to OG group, and had comparable mortality rate, 3-year survival rate, recurrence rate, and metastasis rate.

Summary: This study evaluated the benefits and risks of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) compared to open gastrectomy (OG) for the treatment of gastric cancer. The results showed that LG had advantages such as less blood loss, fewer postoperative complications, and faster recovery, but had disadvantages such as shorter proximal resection margin length, longer operation time, and fewer retrieved lymph nodes compared to OG. LG can be an alternative approach to OG for experienced surgeons, and patients with lower BMI and older age may benefit most.

Summary: This meta-analysis found that laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) for Siewert type II/III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) achieved significantly less estimated blood loss and shorter postoperative hospital stay compared to open gastrectomy (OG). Although there was no significant difference in operation time, number of retrieved lymph nodes, time to first flatus, and time to ambulation between LG and OG groups, LG had fewer overall postoperative complications than OG.

Summary: This study confirms the safety and oncologic feasibility of robotic gastrectomy for selected patients with gastric cancer. Proficiency can be achieved within 20 cases and mastery within 60-80 cases. Ideal candidates for this approach are patients with few comorbidities, BMI < 31kg/m², and tumors < 6cm.

Summary: Surgeons consistently underestimate the importance non-surgeons place on surgical topics in their practice. These results highlight the importance of a broad exposure to surgery in the surgical clerkship for all medical students, with potential variations depending on acute or non-acute non-surgical care career plans.

Summary: Searching English language articles on PubMed between January 2019 and June 2020 for the keywords Propofol TIVA, IV anesthesia, cancer surgery, and surgical oncology, revealed that in-vitro and translational data suggest inhalational anesthetics promote metastasis, while propofol prevents it. Some retrospective single institution clinical studies suggest that TIVA is associated with improved disease-free interval and overall survival in certain solid tumors. Further research through prospective randomized trials is needed to define this association.
