Minimizing invasiveness and simplifying the surgical procedure for upper and middle early gastric cancer with near-infrared light and organ traction

BACKGROUND: Surgeons are often faced with optimal resection extent and reconstructive method problems in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the upper and middle body of the stomach. Indocyanine green (ICG) marking and Billroth I (B-I) reconstruction were used to solve these problems with...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Surgeons are often faced with optimal resection extent and reconstructive method problems in laparoscopic gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the upper and middle body of the stomach. Indocyanine green (ICG) marking and Billroth I (B-I) reconstruction were used to solve these problems with the organ retraction technique. CASE PRESENTATION: A 51-year-old man with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a 0-IIc lesion in the posterior wall of the upper and middle gastric body 4 cm from the esophagogastric junction. Clinical T1bN0M0 (clinical stage IA) was the preoperative diagnosis. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) and D1 + lymphadenectomy was decided to be performed considering postoperative gastric function preservation. The ICG fluorescence method was used to determine the accurate tumor location since the determination was expected to be difficult to the extent of optimal resection with intraoperative findings. By mobilizing and rotating the stomach, the tumor in the posterior wall was fixed in the lesser curvature, and as large a residual stomach as possible was secured in gastrectomy. Finally, delta anastomosis was performed after increasing gastric and duodenal mobility sufficiently. Operation time was 234 min and intraoperative blood loss was 5 ml. The patient was allowed to be discharged on postoperative day 6 without complications. CONCLUSION: The indication for LDG and B-I reconstruction can be expanded to cases where laparoscopic total gastrectomy or LDG and Roux-en-Y reconstruction has been selected for early-stage gastric cancer in the upper gastric body by combining preoperative ICG markings and gastric rotation method dissection.
