Abstract Background Patients often experience severe weight loss after oesophagectomy. Enteral nutrition via a feeding jejunostomy tube (FT) is commonly practised. This study aimed to assess the effect of severe weight loss postoperatively and enteral nutrition via an FT on long-term prognosis after oesophagectomy. Methods This study analysed 317 patients who underwent minimally invasive oesophagectomy at Kobe University Hospital and Hyogo Cancer Center from 2010 to 2015. The patients’ body weight was evaluated at 3 months postoperatively. They were organised into the severe weight loss (n = 65) and moderate weight loss (n = 252) groups. Furthermore, they were categorised into the FT group (184 patients who had an FT placed during oesophagectomy) and no-FT group (133 patients without FT). Patients (119 per group) matched for the FT and no-FT groups were identified via propensity score matching. Results The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in the severe weight loss group was significantly lower (p = 0.024). In the multivariate analysis, tumour invasion depth (pT3-4), preoperative therapy and severe weight loss had a worse OS (hazard ratio = 1.89; 95% confidence interval = 1.12–3.17, hazard ratio = 2.11; 95% confidence interval = 1.25–3.54, hazard ratio = 1.82; 95% confidence interval = 1.02–3.524, respectively). No significant differences in the number of severe weight loss patients and OS were found between the FT and no-FT groups. Conclusion Severe weight loss is significantly associated with poor OS. In addition, enteral nutrition via an FT did not improve the severe weight loss and OS.

Abstract Background Minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) is a complex and technically demanding procedure with a long learning curve, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. To master MIE, training in essential steps is crucial. Yet, no consensus on essential steps of MIE is available. The aim of this study was to achieve expert consensus on essential steps in Ivor Lewis and McKeown MIE through Delphi methodology. Methods Based on expert opinion and peer-reviewed literature, essential steps were defined for Ivor Lewis (IL) and McKeown (McK) MIE. In a round table discussion, experts finalized the lists of steps and an online Delphi questionnaire was sent to an international expert panel (7 European countries) of minimally invasive upper GI surgeons. Based on replies and comments, steps were adjusted and rephrased and sent in iterative fashion until consensus was achieved. Results Two Delphi rounds were conducted and response rates were 74% (23 out of 31 experts) for the first and 81% (27 out of 33 experts) for the second round. Consensus was achieved on 106 essential steps for both the IL and McK approach. Cronbach’s alpha in the first round was 0.78 (IL) and 0.78 (McK) and in the second round 0.92 (IL) and 0.88 (McK). Conclusions Consensus among European experts was achieved on essential surgical steps for both Ivor Lewis and McKeown minimally invasive esophagectomy.

Abstract Background Weight loss (WL) has been considered as a prognostic factor in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, the prognosis and associated factors of WL in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) have remained unclear. Purpose This study aimed to examine the prevalence, prognosis, and clinical characteristics of worse prognosis based on the identified WL after discharge in HFpEF. Methods The study was conducted as a part of a multicenter cohort study (Flagship). The cohort study enrolled ambulatory HF who hospitalized due to acute HF or exacerbation of chronic HF. Patients with severe cognitive, psychological disorders or readmitted within 6-month after discharge were excluded in the study. WL was defined as ≥5% weight loss in 6-month after discharge and HFpEF was defined as left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50% at discharge. Age, gender, etiology, prior HF hospitalization, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal-proBNP (NT-proBNP), anemia (hemoglobin; male <13g/dL, female <12g/dL), serum albumin, Geriatric Depression Scale, hand grip strength and comorbidities were collected at discharge. Patients were stratified according to their body mass index (BMI) at discharge as non-obese (BMI <25) or obese (BMI ≥25). We analyzed the association between WL and HF rehospitalization from 6 month to 2 years after discharge using Kaplan-Meier curve analysis and Cox regression analysis adjusted for age and gender, and clinical characteristics associated to worse prognosis in WL using logistic regression analysis adjusted for potential confounders in HFpEF. Results A total of 619 patients with HFpEF were included in the analysis. The prevalence of WL was 12.9% in 482 non-obese and 15.3% in 137 obese patients. During 2 years, 72 patients were readmitted for HF (non-obese: 48, obese: 24). WL in non-obese independently associated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio: 2.2: 95% confidence interval: 1.13–4.25) after adjustment for age and sex, while WL in obese patients did not. Logistic regression analysis chose age (odds ratio 1.02 per 1 year; 1.00–1.05), anemia (2.14; 1.32–3.48), and BNP ≥200pg/mL or NT-proBNP ≥900pg/mL (1.83; 1.18–2.86) as independent associated factors for worse prognosis of WL in non-obese patients. Conclusion In HFpEF, WL in early after discharge in non-obese elderly patients may be a prognostic indicator for HF rehospitalization. HF management including WL prevention along with controlling anemia is likely to improve prognosis in this population.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has gained popularity and acceptance among bariatric surgeons, mainly as a result of its low morbidity and mortality. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS), the most recent development in minimally invasive surgery, allows operations to be carried out through only a single incision using special ports. To further minimize the trauma of access incisions, we applied the SIL sleeve gastrectomy on a selected number of patients enrolled into our minimally invasive bariatric program. Between June 2010 and May 2012, 40 consecutive female patients underwent SIL sleeve gastrectomy. All data (demographic, morphologic, operative, and follow-up data) were prospectively collected in a computerized data bank. All patients were female. Mean age was 37 years (range, 19 to 62 years), preoperative body mass index was 40.8 kg/m2 (range, 35.1 to 45.0 kg/m2), and excess weight loss was 57.2 per cent at 6.6 months after surgery. Total operative time was 85 ± 21 minutes and mean hospital stay was 5 days (range, 4 to 24 days). Of the patients, two (5%) sustained postoperative complications such as leakage from the suture line and hemorrhage one in each case. There was no trocar site hernia. SIL sleeve gastrectomy seems to be an effective surgical option for the treatment of morbid obesity. During the first 6 months after the operation, weight loss was excellent. These results are at present comparable to those of multiport sleeve gastrectomy. SIL sleeve gastrectomy is safe and feasible and can be performed without changing the existing principles of this procedure.
