Totally laparoscopic versus open total gastrectomy for gastric cancer

Abstract: Although surgical outcomes of totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy (TLTG) have been reported from several centers, the effectiveness of this technique has not been conclusively established. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of TLTG for gastric cancer.A prospectively collected and retrospectively analyzed data were used by comparing the short-term surgical outcomes of 124 patients who underwent TLTG with those of 124 patients who underwent open total gastrectomy (O… Show more

“…In terms of case duration, totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy cases were presented in two separate studies and the mean operation time was 140-230 minutes. 25 , 26 In our study, total laparoscopic total gastrectomy cases had a mean operation time of 159 minutes and were similar to those of the literature. When we look at the results of laparoscopic subtotal gastrectomy, the rate of anastomosis leakage was reported as 5% in a study in which completely laparoscopic cases were presented.…”

“… 24 In a study comparing 124 cases selected from 1258 laparoscopic gastrectomy patients and 3268 open gastrectomy patients using all three of OrVil™, overlap and anvil techniques, anastomosis leakage rate was 2.4% and anastomosis stricture rate was 1.6%. 25 In our cases, we used the esophagojejunostomy technique performed side by side with linear stapler described by Inaba et al 26 Anastomotic leakage and stenosis caused by this technique was 2.7% in accordance with the literature. In terms of case duration, totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy cases were presented in two separate studies and the mean operation time was 140-230 minutes.…”

“…Postoperative complications were classified into major and minor groups based on the Clavien Diendo classification in 11 studies [17,24,25,27,29,31,33,35,37,39,40]. The other seven studies did not specify complications [23,26,28,30,32,34,36].…”

“…According to the range of surgeries, LG can be divided into LDG and LTG 7 - 9 . Compared with LDG, LTG has characteristics such as a wide scope of lymph node dissection, a relatively complicated digestive tract reconstruction process, longer operation duration and higher rate of conversion to laparotomy 20 - 26 . In recent years, LG has been widely used for elderly patients 33 - 45 .…”
