Article Abstract

Background/aim: The clinical evaluation of the GNRI in nutritional status management has been reported in several malignancies. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the GNRI and clinical outcomes in postoperative patients who underwent radical gastrectomy.

Patients And Methods: Clinical data of 940 gastric cancer patients who underwent radical gastrectomy at Kanagawa Cancer Center from 2013 to 2020 were retrospectively collected and divided into a high-GNRI group (≥98) and a low-GNRI group (<98) according to the GNRI. The association between the GNRI and overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) was investigated.

Results: The respective 3- and 5-year OS rates were 92.0% and 86.3% in the high-GNRI group and 82.4% and 73.2% in the low-GNRI group (<0.001). A multivariate analysis showed that the GNRI was an independent predictor of the OS and RFS.

Conclusion: GNRI is an objective, noninvasive, and easily accessible prognostic biomarker for gastric cancer patients. Patient stratification using the GNRI and preoperative nutritional interventions may improve prognosis.

Background And Objectives: The occurrence of anastomotic leakage (AL) and gastroparesis syndrome (GS), common and severe complications after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, significantly impacts the prognosis of patients. The objective of this study was to investigate the risk factors associated with AL after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and GS after laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.

Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, 3779 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and met the inclusion criteria were included.

Background: A complete replacement left hepatic artery (LHA) solely originating from the left gastric artery (LGA), with no supply from the hepatic artery proper, is exceptionally rare. This variant places entire left lobe perfusion on the LGA. Literature review confirms no prior reports of such an isolated LHA replacement pattern in surgical/radiological publications.

Background: Lower mediastinal esophagogastrostomy after proximal gastrectomy with lower esophagectomy for esophagogastric junction (EGJ) cancer remains technically demanding due to the high risk of anastomotic leakage and reflux. We developed a novel reconstruction technique, the short middle overlap anastomosis reinforced with Toupet-like fundoplication (SMART) method, to address these challenges.

Methods: From March 2017 to April 2025, 40 patients underwent radical surgery for EGJ cancer at our institution.
