Efficacy of an aid (gastric tube insertion guide) for oral insertion of a gastric tube: a randomized controlled trial
PurposeInsertion of a gastric tube orally may be more difficult than its insertion nasally, and thus, any aid to facilitate its insertion may be...

Blood flow evaluation of reconstructed gastric tube in esophageal surgery using near-infrared imaging and retrospective time-intensity curve analysis
PurposeNear-infrared fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green (ICG-NIFI) can visualize a blood flow in reconstructed gastric tube; however, it...

ReSleeve or revisional one anastomosis gastric bypass for failed primary sleeve gastrectomy with dilated gastric tube: a retrospective study
BackgroundRevisional bariatric surgery (RBS) has been increasingly performed due to weight loss failure (WLF). Many revisional procedures have been...

Safety and short-term outcomes of a modified valvuloplastic esophagogastrostomy versus gastric tube anastomosis after laparoscopy-assisted proximal gastrectomy: a retrospective cohort study
BackgroundThere is no optimal reconstruction method after proximal gastrectomy. The valvuloplastic esophagogastrostomy can reduce postoperative...
-
Surgical outcomes of laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy for upper-third gastric cancer: esophagogastrostomy, gastric tube reconstruction, and double-tract reconstruction
BackgroundThere is no consensus on the optimal reconstruction technique after proximal gastrectomy. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively...

Successful treatment of nonocclusive mesenteric ischemia in a reconstructed jejunum after esophagectomy and remnant gastric tube resection: a case report
BackgroundNonocclusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI), an ischemic bowel disease without a disruption of the mesenteric blood flow or strangulation of...
-
Cardiac tamponade complicating esophagectomy and retrosternal gastric tube reconstitution in a patient with an abnormal ascending aorta position: a case report
BackgroundCardiac tamponade is a rare postoperative complication of esophageal cancer surgery, which leads to rapid hemodynamic changes and can be...

Quantification of gastric tube perfusion following esophagectomy using fluorescence imaging with indocyanine green
IntroductionAnastomotic leakage (AL) remains a prevalent and life-threatening complication after esophagectomy. Gastric tube perfusion assessment...
-
Routine nasogastric tube placement after gastric endoscopic full-thickness resection of tumor size ≤ 2 cm may be unnecessary: a propensity score-matching analysis
BackgroundEndoscopic full-thickness resection is a common endoscopic procedure for treating gastrointestinal submucosal tumors. Nasogastric tube...
