Comparative Analysis of Short-Term Therapeutic Effects Between the π-Shaped and Overlap Methods for Esophagogastrostomy in Totally Laparoscopic Total Gastrectomy

Summary

As of now, although the safety of π-shaped anastomosis and the overlap method has been separately discussed in different contexts, there have been few studies considering a direct comparison of the results of these two methods. This article aims to explore the differences in the short-term therapeutic effects, surgical effectiveness, and safety between laparoscopic total gastrectomy with esophagogastrostomy using the overlap method and the π-shaped method. The goal is to provide new reference points for surgeons in the clinical decision-making process regarding the choice of anastomotic techniques during totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:(1) preoperative confirmation through electronic gastroscopy and enhanced CT that the lesion was situated in the fundus, middle and upper third of the gastric body, or the entire stomach; (2) postoperative pathology confirming adenocarcinoma; (3) utilization of either overlap esophagojejunal anastomosis or π-shaped anastomosis in total laparoscopic total gastrectomy.

Exclusion Criteria:(1) patients with severe preoperative cardiac, hepatic, renal, and pulmonary complications; (2) preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy; (3) a history of previous abdominal surgery; (4) patients requiring combined resection due to infiltration of other organs during the operation; (5) patients with incomplete pathological or clinical data. All patients signed informed consent.
