RESUMO
Intracorporeal classic gastrointestinal anastomosis using circular stapler in totally laparoscopic gastrectomy (TLG) for gastric cancer requires intracorporeal anvil placement and suitable access for introduction of the circular stapler to the abdominal cavity without gas leak. The novel techniques for anvil placement have been updated, but there is no progress for proper access for circular stapler. In the study, intracorporeal circular-stapled gastrointestinal anastomosis were successfully accomplished using a novel device of sealed cap access with a central hole (WLB-60/70-60/100, Wuhan Widerep Medical Instrument Co.,Ltd, China) customized to the incision protection retractor for the simple and accessible introduction of the circular stapler and anvil under the optimal maintenance of pneumoperitoneum pressure in TLG. In these 3 cases, there was no gas leakage and the pneumoperitoneum was well maintained when performing the gastrointestinal anastomosis, and there was no transition to laparotomy or other anastomosis techniques. The result suggests that the sealed cap access could be a novel choice for introduction of the circular stapler to the abdominal cavity in order to obtain laparoscopic circular-stapled gastroin-testinal anastomosis in TLG.

Malignant or benign diseases of stomach are very common in China. The application of laparoscopy surgery in gastric diseases is a remarkable symbol of current gastric surgery. Laparoscopic assisted radical gastrectomy has gained widespread acceptance for the treatment of gastric cancer. Total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, which means the gastric resection, lymph nodes dissection and gastrointestinal anastomosis are entirely performed in intracorporeally, is the inheritance and progression of laparoscopic assisted radical gastrectomy. However, controversy still exists regarding the risk and difficulty of intracorporeal anastomosis. In Asian countries including China, total laparoscopic radical gastrectomy has not been extensively performed yet. This review focuses on the issues related to intracorporeal gastrointestinal reconstruction in laparoscopic procedure, such as its history and current status, as well as the surgical technique and risk.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the safety and feasibility of hand-sewn anastomosis in totally laparoscopic colectomy.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Clinical data of 19 consecutive patients with benign(n=5) or malignant colonic diseases(n=14, 4 ascending colon cancers, 2 transverse colon cancers, and 8 sigmoid colon cancers) treated with totally laparoscopic colectomy with a hand-sewn anastomosis were reviewed. All the procedures were performed by the same surgeon team including totally laparoscopic resection and hand-sewn anastomosis, ileocolic anastomosis after right hemicolectomy, and hand-sewn purse-string sutures in the colon.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Hand-sewn anastomosis was performed for 11 patients and circular-stapled anastomosis with hand-sewn purse-string sutures was performed for other 8 patients. The mean hand-sewn anastomosis time was (49.5 ± 29.4) min, and the mean hand-sewn purse-string sutures time was (13.3 ± 5.5) min. No patients required conversion to laparoscopy-assisted or open surgery, and there were no postoperative complications related to anastomosis. One patient with transverse colon lipoma developed mild intra-abdominal infection after surgery and recovered after conservative treatment.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Totally laparoscopic intracorporeal hand-sewn anastomosis or hand-sewn purse-string sutures for colectomy is feasible and safe when performed by experienced laparoscopic surgeons.</p>
