- II BRAZILIAN CONSENSUS ON GASTRIC CANCER BY THE BRAZILIAN GASTRIC CANCER ASSOCIATION(2020) BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; DIAS, Andre Roncon; ANDREOLLO, Nelson Adami; WESTON, Antonio Carlos; LOURENCO, Laercio Gomes; MALHEIROS, Carlos Alberto; KASSAB, Paulo; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoBackground: Since the publication of the first Brazilian Consensus on Gastric Cancer (GC) in 2012 carried out by the Brazilian Gastric Cancer Association, new concepts on diagnosis, staging, treatment and follow-up have been incorporated. Aim: This new consensus is to promote an update to professionals working in the fight against GC and to provide guidelines for the management of patients with this condition. Methods: Fifty-nine experts answered 67 statements regarding the diagnosis, staging, treatment and prognosis of GC with five possible alternatives: 1) fully agree; 2) partially agree; 3) undecided; 4) disagree and 5) strongly disagree A consensus was adopted when at least 80% of the sum of the answers ""fully agree"" and ""partially agree"" was reached. This article presents only the responses of the participating experts. Comments on each statement, as well as a literature review, will be presented in future publications. Results: Of the 67 statements, there was consensus in 50 (74%). In 10 declarations, there was 100% agreement. Conclusion: The gastric cancer treatment has evolved considerably in recent years. This consensus gathers consolidated principles in the last decades, new knowledge acquired recently, as well as promising perspectives on the management of this disease.
- GASTRIC NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOR: REVIEW AND UPDATE(2017) DIAS, Andre Roncon; AZEVEDO, Beatriz Camargo; ALBAN, Luciana Bastos Valente; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO-JR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoABSTRACT Introduction: The frequency of gastric neuroendocrine tumors is increasing. Reasons are the popularization of endoscopy and its technical refinements. Despite this, they are still poorly understood and have complex management. Aim: Update the knowledge on gastric neuroendocrine tumor and expose the future perspectives on the diagnosis and treatment of this disease. Method: Literature review using the following databases: Medline/PubMed, Cochrane Library and SciELO. Search terms were: gastric carcinoid, gastric neuroendocrine tumor, treatment. From the selected articles, 38 were included in this review. Results: Gastric neuroendocrine tumors are classified in four clinical types. Correct identification of the clinical type and histological grade is fundamental, since treatment varies accordingly and defines survival. Conclusion: Gastric neuroendocrine tumors comprise different subtypes with distinct management and prognosis. Correct identification allows for a tailored therapy. Further studies will clarify the diseases biology and improve its treatment.
- TOTAL OMENTECTOMY IN GASTRIC CANCER SURGERY: IS IT ALWAYS NECESSARY?(2019) BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; DIAS, Andre Roncon; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground: Traditionally, total omentectomy is performed along with gastric resection and extended lymphadenectomy in gastric cancer (GC) surgery. However, solid evidences regarding its oncologic benefit is still scarce. Alm: To evaluate the incidence of metastatic omental lymph nodes (LN) in patients undergoing curative gastrectomy for GC, as well as its risk factors and patients' outcomes. Methods: All consecutive patients submitted to D2/modified D2 gastrectomy due to gastric adenocarcinoma from March 2009 to April 2016 were retrospectively reviewed from a prospective collected database. Results: Of 284 patients included, five (1.8%) patients had metastatic omental LN (one: pT3N3bM0; two: pT4aN3bM0; one: pT4aN2M0 and one pT4bN3bM0). Four of them deceased and one was under palliative chemotherapy due relapse. LN metastases in the greater omentum significantly correlated with tumor's size (p=0.018), N stage (p<0.001), clinical stage (p=0.022), venous invasion growth (p=0.003), recurrence (p=0.006), site of recurrence (peritoneum: p=0.008; liver: p=0.023; ovary: p=0.035) and death (p=0.008). Conclusion: The incidence of metastatic omental LN of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy due to GC is extremely low. Total omentectomy may be avoided in tumors smaller than 5.25 cm and T1/T2 tumors. However, the presence of lymph node metastases in the greater omentum is associated with recurrence in the peritoneum, liver, ovary and death.
- ROBOTIC GASTRECTOMY: TECHNIQUE STANDARDIZATION(2020) DIAS, Andre Roncon; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; SZOR, Daniel Jose; ABDALLA, Ricardo; BARCHI, Leandro; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground: Robotic gastrectomy is gaining popularity worldwide. It allows reduced blood loss and lesser pain. However, it widespread use is limited by the extensive learning curve and costs. Aim: To describe our standard technique with reduced use of robotic instruments. Methods: We detail the steps involved in the procedure, including trocar placement, necessary robotic instruments, and meticulous surgical description. Results: After standardizing the procedure, 28 patients were operated with this budget technique. For each procedure material used was: 1 (Xi model) or 2 disposable trocars (Si) and 4 robotic instruments. Stapling and clipping were performed by the assistant through an auxiliary port, limiting the use of robotic instruments and reducing the cost. Conclusion: This standardization helps implementing a robotic program for gastrectomy in the daily practice or in one's institution.
- Minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer in Brazil: current status and perspectives-a report from the Brazilian Laparoscopic Oncologic Gastrectomy Group (BLOGG)(2017) KASSAB, Paulo; COSTA JR., Wilson Luiz da; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; CORDTS, Roberto de Moraes; CASTRO, Osvaldo Antonio Prado; BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; CECCONELLO, Ivan; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; COIMBRA, Felipe Jose Fernandez; CURY, Antonio Moris; DINIZ, Alessandro Landskron; FARIAS, Igor Correia de; FREITAS JR., Wilson Rodrigues de; GODOY, Andre Luis de; ILIAS, Elias Jirjoss; MALHEIROS, Carlos Alberto; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; RIBEIRO, Heber Salvador de Castro; DIAS, Andre Roncon; THULER, Fabio Rodrigues; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; LOURENCO, Laercio Gomes; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoThe minimally invasive surgery for gastric cancer in Brazil has begun about two years after the first laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) performed by Kitano in Japan, in 1991. Although the report of first surgeries shows the year of 1993, there was no dissemination of the technique until the years 2010. At that time with the improvement of optical devices, laparoscopic instruments and with the publications coming from Asia, several Brazilian surgeons felt encouraged to go to Korea and Japan to learn the standardization of the LG. After that there was a significant increase in that type of surgery, especially after the IRCAD opened a branch in Brazil. The growing interest for the subject led some services to begin their own experience with the LG and, since the beginning, the results were similar with those found in the open surgery. Nevertheless, there were some differences with the papers published initially in Japan and Korea. In those countries, the surgeries were laparoscopic assisted, meaning that, in the majority of cases, the anastomoses were done through a mini-incision in the end of the procedure. In Brazil since the beginning it was performed completely through laparoscopic approach due to the skills acquired by Brazilian surgeons in bariatric surgeries. Another difference was the stage. While in the east the majority of cases were done in T1 patients, in Brazil, probably due to the lack of early cases, the surgeries were done also in advanced cases. The initial experience of Zilberstein et al. revealed low rates of morbidity without mortality. Comparing laparoscopic and open surgery, the group from Barretos/IRCAD showed shorter surgical time (216x255 minutes), earlier oral or enteral feeding and earlier hospital discharge, with a smaller number of harvested lymph nodes (28 in laparoscopic against 33 in open surgery). There was no significant difference regarding morbidity, mortality and reoperation rate. In the first efforts to publish a multicentric study the Brazilian Gastric Cancer Association (BGCA) collected data from three institutions analyzing 148 patients operated from 2006 to 2016. There were 98 subtotal, 48 total and 2 proximal gastrectomies. The anastomoses were totally laparoscopic in 105, laparoscopic assisted in 21, cervical in 2, and 20 open (after conversion). The reconstruction methods were: 142 Roux-en-Y, two Billroth I, and three other types. The conversion rate was 13.5% (20/148). The D2 dissection was performed in 139 patients. The mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 34.4. If we take only the D2 cases the mean number was 39.5. The morbidity rate was 22.3%. The mortality was 2.7%. The stages were: IA-59, IB-14, IIA-11, IIB-15, IIIA-9, IIIB-19, IIIC-11 and stage IV-three cases. Four patients died from the disease and 10 are alive with disease. The participating services have already begun the robotic gastrectomy with satisfactory results. The intention of this group is to begin now a prospective multicentric study to confirm the data already obtained with the retrospective studies.
- Esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula: a major issue after radical total gastrectomy(2019) BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; DIAS, Andre Roncon; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanGastric cancer surgery has evolved considerably over the past years, with substantial improvement on outcomes. Meanwhile, esophagojejunal anastomotic fistula (EJF) continues to impair postoperative results. This study aimed to assess EJF regarding its incidence, risk factors, management and the impact on overall survival. We retrospectively analyzed 258 consecutive patients who underwent total or completion gastrectomy for GC from 2009 and 2017. Clinicopathological characteristics analysis was performed comparing patients who developed EJF with patients with other clinical or surgical complications, as well as patients without any postoperative complications. Fifteen (5.8%) patients had EJF and 81 (31.4%) had other complications (including other surgical fistulas). The median time of EJF diagnosis was on the eighth postoperative day (range 3-76). Completion gastrectomy (p = 0.048) and longer hospital stay (p < 0.001) were associated with the occurrence of EJF. The surgical mortality of patients with EJF was higher than in non-EJF patients (26.7% vs. 4.5%; p < 0.001). Nine patients were treated conservatively and six required surgery. The mortality rate of EJF was 11.1% and 50% in patients who underwent conservative and surgical treatment, respectively. Patients with other complications and patients with EJF had worse survival compared to patients without any complication (p = 0.004 and p = 0.013, respectively). Completion gastrectomy is the main risk factor for EJF occurrence. Still, EJF is associated with high postoperative mortality, longer hospital stay and has a negative impact on long-term survival.
- Oncological Robot-Assisted Gastrectomy: Technical Aspects and Ongoing Data(2020) BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; SOUZA, Willy Petrini; FRANCISS, Maurice Youssef; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; DIAS, Andre Roncon; HYUNG, Woo Jin; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoRobotic surgery through the da Vinci Surgical System has been widely spread for many procedures across the globe for several years. At the same time, robot-assisted gastrectomy for gastric cancer (GC) remains mostly available only in specialized centers in minimally invasive surgery and stomach neoplasm. The robotic platform has been introduced to overcome possible drawbacks of the laparoscopic approach. The safety and the feasibility of robotic radical gastrectomy have been reported in many retrospective case series and nonrandomized prospective studies. However, the superiority of robotic gastrectomy over the laparoscopic access has not yet been proven. This study aimed to report the technical aspects of robot-assisted gastrectomy for GC as well as the latest evidence on this subject.
- Laparoscopic D2 Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer: Mid-Term Results and Current Evidence(2019) DIAS, Andre Roncon; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; SZOR, Daniel Jose; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; RIBEIRO JR., Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanIntroduction: Although the first laparoscopic gastrectomy was performed in 1991, there was a long delay until it was incorporated into the regular practice of western surgeons. In Brazil, there are only few case series reported and data on its safety and efficacy along with mid- and long-term results are desired. Objective: Present the mid-term results of laparoscopic gastrectomy with curative intent in the treatment of gastric adenocarcinoma and review the current evidence on the therapy of this neoplasia with the laparoscopic access. Methods: Patients who underwent D2 laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Sixty-nine patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean age was 59.2 years and the mean body mass index was 24.2 kg/m(2). Subtotal gastrectomy was performed in 73.9%. The mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 36.7, increased lymph node count and shorter operative time were observed in the last 34 cases. Median hospital stay was 8 days. Postoperative complications occurred in 22 (31.9%) cases. Surgical mortality was 4.3%. Conclusion: Laparoscopic gastrectomy can be performed safely with excellent short- and mid-term results. As experience increases, surgical duration is reduced and lymph node count rises.
- CONVERSION THERAPY FOR GASTRIC CANCER: EXPANDING THE TREATMENT POSSIBILITIES(2019) RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; DIAS, Andre Roncon; CASTRIA, Tiago Biachi de; BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground: Conversion therapy in gastric cancer (GC) is defined as the use of chemotherapy/radiotherapy followed by surgical resection with curative intent of a tumor that was prior considered unresectable or oncologically incurable. Aim: To evaluate the results of conversion therapy in the treatment of GC. Methods: Retrospective analysis of all GC surgeries between 2009 and 2018. Patients who received any therapy before surgery were further identified to define the conversion group. Results: Out of 1003 surgeries performed for GC, 113 cases underwent neoadjuvant treatment and 16 (1.6%) were considered as conversion therapy. The main indication for treatment was: T4b lesions (n = 10), lymph node metastasis (n = 4), peritoneal carcinomatosis and hepatic metastasis in one case each. The diagnosis was made by imaging in 14 cases (75%) and during surgical procedure in four (25%). The most commonly used chemotherapy regimens were XP and mFLOX. Major surgical complications occurred in four cases (25%) and one (6.3%) died. After an average follow-up of 20 months, 11 patients (68.7%) had recurrence and nine (56.3%) died. Prolonged recurrence-free survival over 40 months occurred in two cases. Conclusion: Conversion therapy may offer the possibility of prolonged survival for a group of GC patients initially considered beyond therapeutic possibility.
- Duodenal fistula: The most lethal surgical complication in a case series of radical gastrectomy(2018) RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; BARCHI, Leandro Cardoso; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; DIAS, Andre Roncon; SZOR, Daniel Jose; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground: Despite all advances regarding the surgical treatment of gastric cancer (GC), duodenal stump fistula (DF) continues to negatively affect postoperative outcomes. This study aimed to assess DF regarding its incidence, risk factors, management and impact on overall survival. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 562 consecutive patients who underwent gastrectomy for GC between 2009 and 2017. Clinicopathological characteristics analysis was performed comparing DF, other surgical fistulas and patients with uneventful postoperative course. Results: DF occurred in 15 (2.7%) cases, and 51 (9%) patients had other surgical fistulas. Tumor located in the lower third of the stomach (p=0.021) and subtotal gastrectomy (p=0.002) were associated with occurrence of DF. The overall mortality rate was 40% for DF and 15.7% for others surgical fistulas (p=0.043). The median time of DF onset was on postoperative day 9 (range 1-75). Conservative approach was performed in 8 patients and surgical intervention in 7 cases. Age (OR 7.41, p=0.012) and DF (OR 9.06, p=0.020) were found to be independent risk factors for surgical mortality. Furthermore, patients without fistula had better long-term survival outcomes comparing to patients with any type of fistulas (p=0.006). Conclusion: DF is related with distal tumors and patients submitted to subtotal gastrectomy. It affects not only the postoperative period with high morbidity and mortality rates, but may also have a negative impact on long-term survival.
