Laparoscopic total gastrectomy is on the rise. One of the most technically demanding steps of the approach is the construction of esophago-jejunal anastomosis. Several laparoscopic anastomotic techniques have been described, like linear stapler side-to-side or circular stapler end-to-side anastomosis; limited data exist regarding hand-sewn esophago-jejunal anastomosis. The study took place between January 2018 and June 2021. Patients enrolled in this study were adults with proximal gastric or esophago-gastric junction Siewert type III tumors that underwent 3D-assisted laparoscopic total gastrectomy. A hand-sewn esophago-jejunal anastomosis was performed in all cases laparoscopically. Forty consecutive cases were performed during the study period. Median anastomotic suturing time was 55 min, with intra-operative methylene blue leak test being negative in all cases. Median operating time was 240 min, and there were no conversions to open. The anastomotic leak rate and postoperative stricture rate were zero. The 30- and 90-day mortality rates were zero. Laparoscopic manual esophago-jejunal anastomosis utilizing a 3D platform in total gastrectomy for cancer can be performed with excellent outcomes regarding anastomotic leak and stricture rate. This anastomotic approach, although technically challenging, is safe and reproducible, with prominent results that can be disseminated in the surgical community.

TÓM TẮT Đặt vấn đề: Báo cáo kinh nghiệm về kỹ thuật phẫu thuật nội soi cắt toàn bộ dạ dày qua 126 bệnh nhân điều trị ung thư dạ dày tại Bệnh viện Hữu nghị Đa khoa Nghệ An. Đối tượng và phương pháp nghiên cứu: Nghiên cứu mô tả hồi cứu, các bệnh nhân được phẫu thuật nội soi cắt toàn bộ dạ từ 2014 đến 05/2021. Kết quả: Có 126 bệnh nhân, tuổi trung bình 60,6 ± 11,1 tuổi. 15,9% ung thư 1/3 trên dạ dày và 81,7% là 1/3 giữa. Ung thư ở giai đoạn I, II, III là 19,0%, 49,2%, 31,7%. 71,4% PTNS hoàn toàn cắt TBDD và nối lưu thông tiêu hóa bằng máy cắt nối thẳng. 3,2% trường hợp có tai biến trong mổ và 2,4% có biến chứng sau mổ, không có trường hợp nào tử vong. Số hạch nạo vét được trung bình 22,06 ± 7,6 hạch, lượng máu mất trung bình là 32,14 ± 10,4 ml, thời gian phẫu thuật trung bình là 210,4 ± 34,3 phút, thời gian nằm viện trung bình là 8,3 ± 2,5 ngày và thời gian sống thêm toàn bộ sau mổ trung bình là 36,9 ± 2,25 tháng. Kết luận: PTNS cắt TBDD là kỹ thuật an toàn và hiệu quả trong điều trị UTDD, nối thực quản hỗng tràng bằng máy cắt nối thẳng không cắt thực quản và hỗng tràng trước là kỹ thuật an toàn, tiết kiệm. Từ khóa: Kỹ thuật phẫu thuật nội soi dạ dày, ung thư dạ dày. ABSTRACT EXPERIENCE IN 126 PATIENTS OF LAPAROSCOPIC TOTAL GASTRECTOMY FOR THE TREATMENT OF GASTRIC CANCER Background: The goal of this study was to report on the experience of laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) in 126 patients with gastric cancer Materials and Methods: Retrospective descriptive study of 126 patients who underwent LTG for gastric cancer between 2014 and May 2021. Results: Mean age 60,6 ± 11,1; gastric cancer at stage I, II, III was 19,0%, 49,2%, 31,7% respectively. 71,4% patients underwent totally LTG and functional end-to-end esophagojejunostomy by linear stapler without previous resection of esophagus and jejunum. 3.2% of cases had complications during surgery and 2,4% of cases had complications after surgery. There was no postoperative deaths. The average number of dredged lymph nodes was 22.06 ± 7.6 lymph nodes. The mean blood loss was 32.14 ± 10.4 ml. The mean operative time was 210.4 ± 34.3 minutes. The mean time for beginning oral feeding was 4.4 ± 1.9 days. The mean hospital stay was 8.3 ± 2.5 days. The mean overall survival was 36.9 ± 2,25 months. Conclusions: LTG is a safe and effective technique for the treatment of gastric cancer. The technique functional end-to-end esophagojejunostomy by linear stapler without previous resection of esophagus and jejunum was safe and saving.

The Moment

Background: The laparoscopic gastrectomy is a relatively new procedure due mainly to the difficulties related to lymphadenectomy and reconstruction. Until the moment, technique or device to perform the esophagojejunal anastomosis by laparoscopy is still a challenge. So, a safe, cheap and quickly performing technique is desirable to be developed. Aim : To present technique proposed by the authors with its technical details on reconstruction with "reverse anvil". Method: After total gastrectomy completed intra-corporeally, the reconstruction starts with the preparation of the intra-abdominal esophagus cross-section next to the esophagogastric transition of 50%. A graduated device is prepared using Levine gastric tubes (nº. 14 and 10), 3 cm length, connected to the anvil of the circular stapler (nº. 25) with a wire thread (2-0 or 3-0) of 10 cm, which is connected to end of this device. The whole device is introduced in reverse esophagus. The esophagus is amputated and the wire is pulled after previous transfixation in the distal esophagus and the anvil positioned. The jejunal loop is sectioned 20-30 cm from duodenojejunal angle, and the anvil put in the jejunal loop and connect previously in the esophagus. Linear stapler (blue 60 mm) is used to close the opening of the jejunal loop. Conclusion: The "reverse anvil" technique used by the authors facilitated the transit reestablishment after total gastrectomy, contributing to obviate reconstruction problems after total gastrectomy.
