- Laparoscopic Completion Total Gastrectomy for Remnant Gastric Cancer(2021) SAKAMOTO, Erica; DIAS, Andre Roncon; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, IvanBackground: Remnant gastric cancer (RGC) is increasing due to past use of subtotal gastrectomy to treat benign diseases, improvements in the detection of gastric cancer, and increased survival rates after gastrectomy for gastric cancer. Laparoscopic access provides the advantages and benefits of minimally invasive surgery. However, laparoscopic completion total gastrectomy (LCTG) for RGC is technically demanding, even for experienced surgeons. Because of its rarity and heterogeneity, no standard surgical strategy has been established and few surgeons will develop technical expertise to carry out this procedure. Aim: To describe our standard technique, giving surgeons a head start in LCTG and report the early experience with this stepwise approach. Materials and Methods: We detail all the steps involved in the procedure, including trocar placement and surgical description. Results: Between 2009 and 2019, a total of 8 patients with past history of RGC were operated with this technique. All patients had been previously operated by open method, 7 due to peptic ulcer disease and 1 due to gastric cancer. Their mean age at the time of the first surgery was 38.9 years (range 25-56 years) and the mean interval between the first and the second gastrectomy was 32.1 years (range 13.6-49). Billroth II was the previous reconstruction in all cases. A 5-trocar technique was used followed by total gastrectomy with side-to-side stapled intracorporeal esophagojejunostomy anastomosis and Roux-en-Y reconstruction. The mean operation time was 272 minutes (range 180-330) and median blood loss was 247 mL (range 50-500). There was no conversion and no major intraoperative complication. Major postoperative complications occurred in 3 patients. Conclusion: Completion total gastrectomy for RGC is a morbid procedure and laparoscopic access is technically feasible, hopefully carrying the benefits of faster recovery, reduced postoperative pain, and wound complications. By standardizing the approach, the learning curve may be shortened and better results achieved.
- Characterization of oncogene suppressor marker expression in patients with submucosal gastric carcinoma(2018) MORON, Roberson A.; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; BRESCIANI, Claudio Jose Caldas; SIMOES, Kleber; ALVES, Venancio Avancini Ferreira; IRYA, Kyoshi; GAMA-RODRIGUES, Joaquim; CECCONELLO, Ivan; LONGATTO-FILHO, Adhemar; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoThe aim of the present study was to determine the clinical significance of p53 and p21(ras) p21(wafl), p27(kip1) and p16(ink4a) expression in cases of early gastric cancer. A total of 81 patients who had undergone gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy between 1971 and 2004 were retrospectively investigated. The immunohistochemical expression of p21ras, p53, p21waf1.cip1, p27kip1 and p16ink4a in the tissues was evaluated. In normal, metaplastic and tumoral mucosa, p53 was positive in 53, 87.3, and 87.1% of the cases, respectively. In the same tissues, p21ras was positive in 85.3, 86 and 96.8%, respectively. Positivity for p16ink4a was detected in 46.3, 91.1 and 86% of the cases, respectively, whereas p27kip1 was positive in 60, 94.7 and 95.3%, and p21wafl/ cip1 was positive in 32.4, 72.7 and 71.4% of the cases, respectively. All the tumors were positive for p53. Tumors with lymph node invasion presented with overexpression (+ 4) of p53 in 47% of the cases vs. 17% of patients who did not have lymph node involvement. Therefore, higher expression of p53, p21ras and p21wafl/ cip1 in the tumor exhibited a statistically significant association with lymph node involvement.
- Predictive factors of recurrence in adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction in the multimodal era(2021) TAKEDA, Flavio Roberto; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; MUNIZ, Renan Rosetti; TUSTUMI, Francisco; CASTRIA, Tiago Biachi de; SALLUM, Rubens Antonio Aissar; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, Ulysses; CECCONELLO, IvanIntroduction: Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEGJ) represents a poor prognostic tumor. We evaluated the recurrence pattern and risk factors associated with recurrence in patients undergoing surgical resection by AEJG. Methods: Recurrences were categorized as locoregional, peritoneal, or distant. These three recurrence groups and a non-recurrence group were compared, and overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) for each one was obtained. Results: We analyzed 188 patients with curative surgical treatment. Recurrence was observed in 72 (38.3%) patients. Locoregional recurrence was observed in 17 (23.6%); 20 (27.8%) peritoneal recurrence and 35 (48.6%) distant metastasis. DFS was 9, 5, and 8 months, and OS was 21.8, 13.2, and 20.8, respectively. Tumors larger than 5 cm are risk factors for peritoneal recurrence (OR:2.88, p = 0.012). Positive lymph nodes were related to distant metastasis (OR:9.15, p = 0.040), and lymphatic invasion for locoregional recurrence (OR:3.81, p = 0.028). Conclusion: AEGJ is associated with high rates of early recurrence.
- 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.
- RECURRENCE IN PN0 GASTRIC CANCER: RISK FACTORS IN THE OCCIDENT(2021) NOBRE, Karolyne Ernesto Luiz; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; RIBEIRO, Ulysses; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; DIAS, Andre RonconBackground: Nearly 10% of node negative gastric cancer patients who underwent curative surgery have disease recurrence. Western data is extremely poor on this matter and identifying the risk factors that associate with relapse may allow new strategies to improve survival. Aim: Verify the clinical and pathological characteristics that correlate with recurrence in node negative gastric cancer. Methods: All gastric cancer patients submitted to gastrectomy between 2009 and 2019 at our institution and pathologically classified as N0 were considered. Their data were available in a prospective database. Inclusion criteria were: gastric adenocarcinoma, node negative, gastrectomy with curative intent, R0 resection. Main outcomes studied were: disease-free survival and overall survival. Results: A total of 270 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Mean age was 63-year-old and 155 were males. Subtotal gastrectomy and D2 lymphadenectomy were performed in 64% and 74.4%, respectively. Mean lymph node yield was 37.6. Early GC was present in 54.1% of the cases. Mean follow-up was 40.8 months and 19 (7%) patients relapsed. Disease-free survival and overall survival were 90.9% and 74.6%, respectively. Independent risk factors for worse disease-free survival were: total gastrectomy, lesion size >= 3.4 cm, higher pT status and <16 lymph nodes resected. Conclusion: In western gastric cancer pN0 patients submitted to gastrectomy, lymph node count <16, pT3-4 status, tumor size >= 3.4 cm, total gastrectomy and presence of lymphatic invasion, are all risk factors for disease relapse.
conferenceObject OUTCOME OF GASTRIC CANCER PATIENTS SUBMITTED TO D1 LYMPH NODE DISSECTION DUE TO UNFAVORABLE MEDICAL CONDITIONS(2017) RAMOS, Marcus Kodama; PEREIRA, Marina; DIAS, Andre R.; YAGI, Osmar K.; BARCHI, Leandro C.; JACOB, Carlos E.; MUCERINO, Donato R.; LOPASSO, Fabio; MESTER, Marcelo; BRESCIANI, Claudio C.; CHARRUF, Amir Z.; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO, Ulysses- Resultados da gastrectomia D2 para o câncer gástrico: dissecção da cadeia linfática ou ressecção linfonodal múltipla?(2012) ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; MUCERINO, Donato Roberto; YAGI, Osmar Kenji; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, Ulysses; LOPASSO, Fabio Pinatel; BRESCIANI, Claudio; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; COIMBRA, Brian Guilherme Monteiro Marta; CECCONELLO, IvanBACKGROUND: Eastern literature is remarkable for presenting survival rates for surgical treatment of gastric adenocarcinoma superior to those presented in western countries. AIM: To analyze the long-term result after D2 gastrectomy for gastric cancer. METHODS: Two hundred seventy four underwent gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection as exclusive treatment. The inclusion criteria were: 1) lymph node removal according to Japanese standardized lymphatic chain dissection; 2) potentially curative surgery described in medical records as D2 or more lymph node dissection; 3) tumoral invasiveness of gastric wall restricted to the organ (T1 - T3); 4) absence of distant metastasis (N0-N2/M0); 5) a minimum of five years follow-up. Clinical pathological data included sex, age, tumor location, Borrmann's macroscopic tumor classification, type of gastrectomy, mortality rates, hystological type, TNM classification and staging according to UICC TNM 1997. RESULTS: Total gastrectomy was performed in 77 cases (28.1%) and subtotal gastrectomy in 197 (71.9%). The tumor was located in the upper third in 28 cases (10.2%), in the middle third in 53 (19.3%), and in the lower third in 182 (66.5%). Among patients that had their Borrmann's classification assigned, five cases (1.8%) were BI, 34 (12.4%) BII, 230 (84.0%) BIII and 16 (5.9%) BIV. Tumors were histologically classified as Laurén intestinal type in 119 cases (43.4%) and as diffuse type in 155 (56.6%). According to UICC TNM 1997 classification, early gastric cancer (T1) was diagnosed in 68 cases (24.8 %); 51 (18.6%) were T2, and 155 (56.6%) were T3. No lymph node involvement (N0) was observed in 129 cases (47.1%), whereas 100 (36.5%) were N1 (1-6 lymph nodes), and 45 (16.4%) were N2 (7-15 lymph nodes).The median number of lymph nodes dissected was 35. The overall long-term (five-year) survival rate, for stages I to IIIb was 70.4%. CONCLUSION: Digestive surgeons must be stimulated in performing D2 gastrectomies to avoid wasting the only treatment to gastric adenocarcinoma that has proven to be efficient up to this days. It must be emphasized that standardized lymph nodes dissection according to tumor location is more important that only the number of removed nodes
- Simplified laparoscopic cholecystectomy with two incisions(2014) ABAID, Rafael Antoniazzi; CECCONELLO, Ivan; ZILBERSTEIN, BrunoBACKGROUND: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy has traditionally been performed with four incisions to insert four trocars, in a simple, efficient and safe way. AIM: To describe a simplified technique of laparoscopic cholecystectomy with two incisions, using basic conventional instrumental. TECHNIQUE: In one incision in the umbilicus are applied two trocars and in epigastrium one more. The use of two trocars on the same incision, working in ""x"" does not hinder the procedure and does not require special instruments. CONCLUSION: Simplified laparoscopic cholecystectomy with two incisions is feasible and easy to perform, allowing to operate with ergonomy and safety, with good cosmetic result.
article Surgical outcome of Gastric Cancer in patients older than 80 years(2016) OLIVEIRA, Rodrigo José de; CHARRUF, Amir Zeide; JACOB, Carlos Eduardo; RAMOS, Marcus Kodama P.; DIAS, André Roncon; YAGI, Osmar K.; MUCERINO, Donato R.; BARCHI, Leandro; MESTER, Marcelo; BRESCIANI, Cláudio J. C.; LOPASSO, Fábio P.; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan- Prognostic Role of Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio in Resected Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis(2018) SZOR, Daniel Jose; DIAS, Andre Roncon; PEREIRA, Marina Alessandra; RAMOS, Marcus Fernando Kodama Pertille; ZILBERSTEIN, Bruno; CECCONELLO, Ivan; RIBEIRO-JUNIOR, UlyssesHigh levels of inflammatory markers and the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio appear to be associated with worse overall survival in solid tumors. However, few studies have analyzed the role of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in gastric cancer patients scheduled to undergo curative resection. In the present study, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and overall survival in patients with gastric cancer submitted to curative resection and to identify the clinicopathological features (age, gender, tumor depth, nodal involvement and tumor differentiation) that are correlated with high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios. A literature search of PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane and EMBASE through November 2017 was conducted. Articles that included gastric cancer patients submitted to curative resection and preoperatory neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio values were included. A total of 7 studies comprising 3264 patients from 5 different countries were included. The meta-analysis revealed an association of high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios with older age, male gender, lower 5-year overall survival, increased depth of tumor invasion, positive nodal involvement but not with histological differentiation. Evaluation of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio is a cost-effective method that is widely available in preoperatory settings. Furthermore, it can effectively predict prognosis, as high values of this biomarker are related to more aggressive tumor characteristics. This ratio can also be used to stratify risk in patients within the same disease stage and may be used to assist in individualized follow-up and treatment.
