RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI) reduces anastomotic leakage (AL) in rectal cancer surgery. However, no studies investigating risk factors for anastomotic leakage specific to the group using ICG-FI have ever previously been conducted. The purpose of this retrospective multicenter study was to ascertain the risk factors for AL in the group using ICG-FI. METHODS: A total of 638 patients who underwent laparoscopic or robotic anterior resection for rectal cancer between April 2018 and March 2023 were included in this study. Patients were divided into two groups: the ICG-FI group (n = 269) and the non-ICG-FI group (n = 369) for comparative analysis. The effects of clinicopathological and treatment-related factors on AL in the ICG-FI group were evaluated using both univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: The incidence of AL in the ICG-FI group was 4.8%. Although there was no significant difference in the incidence of AL between the two groups, it was observed to be lower in the ICG-FI group. A multivariate analysis revealed a preoperative C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio (CAR) ≥ 0.049 (odds ratio, 3.73; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-13.70; p = 0.048) as an independent risk factor for AL in the ICG-FI group. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, CAR was the only identified risk factor for AL in the ICG-FI group. It was suggested that CAR could be a criterion for early surgical intervention, prior to the escalation of risks, or for considering interventions such as diverting stoma creation.

PURPOSE: There have been no adequate comparisons of the efficacy, safety, and efficiency of analgesia after laparoscopic colorectal resection (LAC), with and without epidural anesthesia (EDA). METHODS: This was a multicenter prospective observational study of patients undergoing LAC. The primary end point was the mean visual analog scale (VAS) score on postoperative days (PODs) 1-7. The secondary end points were the highest VAS, complication rate, days to first ambulation and fatigue, length of hospital stay, and time to commencement of surgery. RESULTS: We compared an EDA group (Group E, n = 48) and a no-EDA group (Group O, n = 48) after matching. The mean VAS was not significantly different between the groups (28.7 vs. 30.1, p = 0.288). On assessing the secondary end points, the highest VAS was not significantly different between the groups. In fact, the VAS was lower in Group E only on POD 2. There was no difference in the incidence of complications, the time to first postoperative evacuation was shorter in Group E, and postoperative hospitalization was similar. The time to surgery was shorter in Group O. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that LAC without EDA is a feasible option, but with the early and regular use of adjunctive measures to provide more stable analgesia.
RESUMEN
AIM: There are well-known methods for decompressing the colorectal tract before surgery, including transanal decompression tubes (TDT) and self-expanding metallic stents (SEMS). This study aimed to compare the short and long-term results in patients with malignant large bowel obstruction in whom TDT or SEMS were placed before surgery. METHODS: This retrospective observational study enrolled 225 patients with malignant large bowel obstruction in whom TDT or SEMS were placed preoperatively and underwent R0 resection between 2008 and 2020. One-to-two propensity score matching was performed according to patient characteristics. Short- and long-term outcomes were compared. The primary endpoint was relapse-free survival (RFS). The secondary endpoints were the overall survival (OS) and postoperative complication rate. RESULTS: Fifty-seven patients in the TDT group and 114 in the SEMS group were matched. The 3-year RFS rates were 66.7% in the TDT group and 69.9% in the SEMS group (p = 0.54), and the 3-year OS rates were 90.5% in the TDT group and 87.1% in the SEMS group (p = 0.52). No significant differences in the long-term results were observed between the two groups. Regarding short-term results, the SEMS group had significantly fewer stoma construction (p = 0.007) and shorter postoperative hospitalization (p < 0.001). The incidence of postoperative complications (grade ≥ 2) was significantly lower in the SEMS group (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION: No significant differences in the long-term results were observed between the TDT and SEMS group. The SEMS showed significant usefulness in terms of improving short-term outcomes.

AIM: During surgery for mid-transverse colon cancer (MTC), surgeons often face the dilemma of whether to mobilize the hepatic or splenic flexure. There is no established optimal minimally invasive surgical procedure for MTC. METHODS: We present our novel minimally invasive surgical technique, called the 'moving the left colon' technique for MTC, along with a video demonstration. The procedure involves four main steps: (i) mobilization of the splenic flexure using a medial-to-lateral approach, (ii) dissection of lymph nodes around the middle colic artery from the left side of the superior mesenteric artery approach, (iii) separation of the pancreas and transverse mesocolon and (iv) 'moving the left colon' and performing an intracorporeal anastomosis. By mobilizing the splenic flexure, anatomical landmarks are revealed, which enables safer dissection. Combining this technique with intracorporeal anastomosis allows for a safe and easy anastomosis. RESULTS: Between April 2021 and January 2023, a single-skilled colorectal surgeon performed laparoscopic transverse colectomies using our new approach on three consecutive patients with MTC. The patients had a median age of 75 years (range 46-89 years). The median operative time was 194 min (range 193-228 min) and blood loss was 8 mL (range 0-20 mL). None of the patients experienced any perioperative complications and the median postoperative hospital stay was 6 days. CONCLUSION: We introduced a novel approach for laparoscopic surgery for MTC. This technique can be performed safely and may help standardize minimally invasive surgery for MTC.

PURPOSE: This study compared the surgical outcomes between laparoscopic colectomy (LC) and open colectomy (OC) for mid-transverse colon cancer (MTC). METHODS: This multicenter retrospective study compared the short- and long-term surgical outcomes for patients with advanced MTC (T3 and T4 with or without nodal involvement) who underwent LC or OC between January 2008 and December 2019 using a propensity score-matched analysis. RESULTS: A total of 177 patients with advanced MTC were enrolled. After matching, 58 cases for the OC and LC groups were selected. No significant differences in age, sex, tumor progression, or procedure type (extended resection or segmental resection) existed between groups. The LC group had significantly less blood loss (20 mL vs. 50 mL, p=0.048) and a shorter postoperative hospital stay (8 days vs. 12 days, p<0.001) than the OC group. Postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ 2) occurred in 27.6% and 25.9% of the OC and LC groups respectively (p=1). Three patients (5.2%) and one patient (1.7%) of the OC and LC groups respectively developed anastomotic leakage (p=0.62). Re-operation was required in five patients (8.6%) in the OC group and one patient (1.7%) in the LC group (p=0.21). No surgery-related deaths occurred in either group. The 3-year overall survival rates (stage II: LC 100% vs. OC 92.8%, p=0.15; stage III: 88.9% vs. 84.3%, p=0.88, respectively) were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSION: LC is a minimally invasive technique with lesser blood loss, shorter postoperative hospital stays, and oncologic equivalence to OC. Hence, LC is useful for MTC treatment.

Laparoscopic and endoscopic cooperative surgery(LECS)for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)has become a popular surgery with both curability and functional preservation. In this study, we examined the outcomes of 14 patients who underwent classical LECS or CLEAN-NET in our hospital. Until March 2022, classical LECS was performed in patients with intraluminal growth tumors or tumors close to the gastroesophageal junction. After April 2022, classical LECS was performed in patients with intraluminal growth tumors without ulceration, and CLEAN-NET was performed in patients with ulceration or intramural growth tumors. There were 10 males and 4 females with a median age of 80.5 years. Intraluminal growth tumor were 8 patients, close to the gastroesophageal junction tumor were 3, and intramural growth tumor were 4, respectively. Five of these patients had tumors with ulceration. Classical LECS was performed in 10 patients and CLEAN-NET in 4 patients, and the median operative time was 165.5 minutes. All patients underwent R0 resection, and no postoperative complications or recurrences were observed. LECS was performed safely, and it is important to select the surgical procedure according to the tumor site and growth type.

We report a case of a patient with locally recurrent esophageal cancer after chemoradiation therapy(CRT)who responded to nivolumab. The patient was an 86-year-old man with advanced esophageal cancer. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (EGD)revealed a type 2 lesion in the middle thoracic esophagus, and biopsy revealed squamous cell carcinoma(SCC). Contrast- enhanced CT showed invasion of the left main bronchi. The patient was diagnosed as Stage â £a advanced esophageal cancer, and was treated with 5-FU plus cisplatin chemotherapy, and 60 Gy of radiation therapy. The tumor disappeared by CT and EGD, and the patient was followed up for observation. The patient experienced a feeling of tightness again, and EGD revealed an ulcerative lesion in the middle thoracic esophagus, and a biopsy detected SCC. Because of the early recurrence after CRT, the patient was judged to be resistant to 5-FU plus cisplatin chemotherapy, and 8 courses of nivolumab were administered as second-line treatment. Follow-up EGD confirmed disappearance of ulcerative lesions, and no tumors have been observed to date.

A 77-year-old man presented to our hospital with diarrhea and weight loss. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed advanced Type 3 gastric cancer measuring 40 mm in the lower greater curvature of the stomach. Biopsy from a gastric tumor revealed moderately differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma overexpressing HER2. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography(CT)showed multiple liver metastases in S3 and S5. We diagnosed HER2-positive gastric cancer with liver metastasis. Systemic chemotherapy was administrated, with a total of 13 courses of combination therapy with S-1, oxaliplatin and trastuzumab. After chemotherapy, the primary tumor was significantly reduced and liver metastases were almost undetectable. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and partial hepatectomy were performed as conversion surgery. The patient was discharged on the 9th day without any postoperative complications. Postoperative pathological findings showed no residual tumor in either gastric and hepatic specimens, and the therapeutic effect of chemotherapy was diagnosed as pathological complete response. We report a case of HER2-positive advanced gastric cancer with multiple liver metastases that achieved a pathologically complete response to chemotherapy followed by conversion surgery. Laparoscopic surgery would be one of an effective option for conversion surgery.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Contrary to the Japanese guidelines recommendations regarding lateral lymph node dissection (LatLND) for rectal cancer, its omission is common in clinical practice without reliable omission criteria. Negative pathological mesorectal lymph node metastasis (MesLNM) is reportedly highly correlated with negative pathological lateral lymph node metastasis (p-LatLNM); however, this cannot be used as a criterion because pathological features are revealed postoperatively. Herein, we prospectively evaluated the negative predictive value (NPV) of MesLNM diagnosed via the one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) method for p-LatLNM. METHODS: This prospective study was conducted at a single academic study group in Japan. The key eligibility criterion was mid-to-low rectal cancer planned to be treated using mesorectal excision with LatLND. According to the study protocol, the OSNA method was considered useful if the point estimate of the NPV exceeded 95%. RESULTS: Preoperative case registration was conducted between 2018 and 2020; 34 patients were registered. Among these, 16 were negative for OSNA-MesLNM, and negative p-LatLNM was confirmed in all cases. The point estimate of the NPV was 100%, with the 95% confidence interval ranging from 79.4% to 100.0%. CONCLUSIONS: The OSNA method is useful in selecting patients in whom LatLND can be omitted in real-world clinical practice.

PURPOSE: The laparoscopic surgery approach for mid-transverse colon cancer (MTC) varies depending on tumor characteristics and the guidelines implemented by each surgeon; the optimal surgical procedure for MTC has not been established. This study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes of laparoscopic extended right hemicolectomy (Lap-ERHC) and laparoscopic transverse colectomy (Lap-TC) for MTC. METHODS: This was a multicenter, retrospective study. We surveyed eight hospitals, by questionnaire, on MTC surgery policies and retrospectively compared the short- and long-term surgical outcomes for patients with MTC who underwent Lap-ERHC or Lap-TC between January 2008 and December 2019. RESULTS: A total of 129 patients were enrolled, of whom 35 underwent Lap-ERHC and 94 underwent Lap-TC. There were no significant differences in tumor progression between the two groups. Operation time was significantly longer (202 min vs. 185 min, p = 0.026). We observed a higher complication rate (≥ grade 3) in the Lap-ERHC group than in the Lap-TC group (11.4% vs. 3.2%, p = 0.086). Three patients (8.6%) who underwent Lap-ERHC developed anastomotic leakage; none of the patients who underwent Lap-TC had this complication (p = 0.018). The 3-year overall survival rates (stage I: 100% vs. 91.9%, p = 0.64; stage II: 100% vs. 95.5%, p = 0.46; stage III: 100% vs. 88.2%, p = 0.91, respectively) were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSION: Lap-ERHC for MTC has the same long-term outcomes as Lap-TC. However, Lap-ERHC for MTC has a higher complication rate. Therefore, Lap-TC may be recommended for patients with MTC.

BACKGROUND: Omentectomy is considered an essential part of curative gastrectomy for locally advanced gastric cancer (GC), albeit without solid evidence. We conducted a randomized phase II trial (the TOP-G trial) comparing omentectomy and omentum preservation for gastric cancer. This report describes the short-term findings regarding the trial's secondary endpoints. METHODS: The trial protocol was submitted to the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry ( http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr/ : UMIN000005421). The key eligibility criteria were histologically confirmed cT2-4a and N0-2 gastric adenocarcinoma. Short-term surgical outcomes, including morbidity and mortality, were compared between the omentectomy group (group A, control arm) and the omentum-preserving surgery group (group B, test arm). All procedures were performed via an open approach. Based on a non-inferiority margin of 7%, statistical power of 0.7, and type I error of 0.2, the sample size was set to 250 patients. RESULTS: A total of 251 patients were eligible and randomized (group A: 125 patients, group B: 126 patients) between April 2011 and October 2018. After excluding patients who had peritoneal metastasis or laparotomy history, safety outcomes were analyzed for 247 patients. Group A had a significantly longer median operation time (225 min vs. 204 min, p = 0.022) and tended to have greater median blood loss (260 mL vs. 210 mL p = 0.073). The incidences of morbidity were similar and < 10% in both groups (8% vs. 9%, p = 1.000). There was no mortality in either group. CONCLUSIONS: Operative risk was generally similar between omentectomy and omentum-preserving surgery for locally advanced gastric cancer.

PURPOSE: The favorable oncological impact of D3 lymph node dissection after colon cancer surgery has been described previously. However, D3 lymph node dissection is potentially more invasive than conventional D2 lymph node dissection. The oncological merit of D3 lymph node dissection in elderly patients with colon cancer remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify the oncological outcome after D3 lymph node dissection in patients with colon cancer aged > 75 years. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort analysis using propensity matching method. The study was conducted at a university hospital and two community teaching hospitals in a large urban city. A total of 378 consecutive patients with pathological stage II and stage III colon cancer who underwent primary resection with either D2 or D3 lymph node dissection were retrospectively identified on a prospective database between 2000 and 2015. The primary and secondary outcomes of interests were recurrence-free survival and postoperative complication rate, respectively. RESULTS: After propensity matching, 232 patients were analyzed. The long-term findings showed that the elderly who underwent D3 lymph node dissection had significantly better recurrence-free survival than those who underwent D2 lymph node dissection (p = 0.01). The incidence of postoperative complication was almost similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: D3 lymph node dissection provides better recurrence-free survival than D2 lymph node dissection after primary resection for elderly patients with pathological stage II and stage III colon cancer.

PURPOSE: The benefits of laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer have been well established. Several randomized controlled trials have demonstrated similar oncological outcomes between laparoscopic and open surgery for colon cancer. However, whether or not laparoscopic surgery is acceptable in patients with clinical N2 colon cancer is unclear. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the safety and oncological outcomes of laparoscopic surgery for clinical N2 colon cancer. METHODS: This retrospective study assessed a prospective database and identified 262 consecutive patients with clinical N2 colon cancer who underwent either laparoscopic or open primary resection between 2000 and 2016. After propensity-score matching, 162 patients were analyzed. The primary outcome of interest was the 3-year recurrence-free survival rate, and the secondary outcome of interest was the postoperative complication rate. RESULTS: The 3-year recurrence-free survival rate did not differ markedly between the laparoscopic and open surgery groups (77.4% vs. 76.5%, p = 0.620). In addition, the incidence of postoperative complications did not differ markedly between the laparoscopic and open surgery groups (16.6% vs. 24.0%, p = 0.317). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that laparoscopic surgery is safe and effective for clinical N2 colon cancer. Laparoscopic resection can be considered in patients diagnosed with clinical N2 colon cancer.

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic surgery in patients with retroperitoneal fibrosis has been reported to be difficult due to mesenteric and retroperitoneal fibrotic thickening. Here, we report a case of laparoscopic surgery with IgG4-related disease. CASE PRESENTATION: A 60-year-old man with IgG4-related kidney disease and autoimmune pancreatitis was diagnosed with cecal cancer. Laparoscopic ileocecal resection was performed. Preoperative CT showed no evidence of retroperitoneal fibrosis but showed a localized fibro-inflammatory lesion between the retroperitoneum and mesentery in front of the right kidney due to interstitial nephritis. Intraoperative findings revealed focal adhesions in the duodenal front within the range consistent with CT findings. CONCLUSIONS: This report shows that the degree and extent of fibrosis were similar between preoperative CT and actual surgical findings. Thus, it is possible that tissue fibrosis in patients with IgG4-related disease could be predicted by preoperative CT.

Appendiceal mucinous neoplasm has a risk for pseudomyxoma peritonei caused by appendiceal perforation.It has been reported that laparoscopic surgery is more risky than open surgery.We investigated 4 patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for appendiceal mucinous neoplasm.The median age was 69.5(49-85).There were 3 males and 1 female.Three cases of partial laparoscopic resection of the cecum and 1 case of ileocecal resection with lymph node dissection were performed. The pathology was low-grade mucinous neoplasm in all cases.The median hospital stay was 6 days, and there were no postoperative complications(CD Grade 3 or higher)or hospital death.As for long-term results, peritoneal pseudomyxoma developed in 1 case, which had already ruptured at the time of surgery.There were no recurrences in other cases.This result suggests that laparoscopic surgery for appendiceal mucinous neoplasm is safe with optimal selection of the procedure and a protective technique.

A 74-year-old woman was found to have a hepatic mass based on CT findings. She was diagnosed as having cecum cancer, and it was difficult to distinguish whether the hepatic mass was liver metastasis or biliary cystadenocarcinoma. We proceeded with the surgery for cecum cancer, and laparoscopic ileocecal resection with D3 lymph node dissection was performed. The histopathological diagnosis was mucinous adenocarcinoma, and the pathological stage was T3N2H1P0M1a, Stage IV. After the surgery, her CEA level was elevated, and we diagnosed the hepatic mass as a liver metastasis. A CapeOX plus bevacizumab regimen was administered but was discontinued for 2 courses due to the development of adverse effects and her decision. Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI revealed a multilocular and lobulated mass, which was a low-intensity area in T1WI and high-intensity area in T2WI, and the mass had no significant contrast effects. These images were unspecific for liver metastasis of colorectal cancer, and we performed segmental 6 hepatectomy for diagnosis and curative surgery. A histopathological diagnosis of liver metastasis of cecum cancer was made. Here, we report a case of liver metastasis of colorectal cancer that was undifferentiated from biliary cystadenocarcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Assessment of oxaliplatin-associated hepatotoxicity in patients receiving oxaliplatin, fluorouracil and leucovorin chemotherapy (FOLFOX) for colorectal cancer remains controversial. The aims of this study were to clarify which variables are indicators of such hepatotoxicity. METHODOLOGY: Twenty-seven patients who were to receive FOLFOX for colorectal cancer were included in this study. A range of liver function tests, including serum hyaluronic acid (HA) and type IV collagen concentrations, indocyanine green (ICG) retention rate at 15 min (ICGR15) and splenic volume were assessed before commencement of chemotherapy and after four cycles of FOLFOX. RESULTS: No significant changes were found in conventional liver function tests or splenic volume. Significant changes pre- and post-FOLFOX were found in type IV collagen concentrations and ICGR15. Correlation analyses showed that the following two factors were associated with significant changes in ICGR15 after four cycles of FOLFOX: platelet count (p = 0.028, correlation coefficient 0.423), and type IV collagen concentration (p < 0.001, correlation coefficient 0.830). The regression line between type IV collagen concentration and ICGR15 was Y = 2.70 + 0.84 x X. CONCLUSION: Serum type IV collagen concentration is an indicator of oxaliplatin-associated hepatotoxicity and correlates with significant changes in ICGR15 in patients receiving FOLFOX.
