Histopathological Findings of the Lower Esophagus after Total Gastrectomy in Rat.

Early Morphological Changes After Total Gastrectomy in the Rat Pancreas

Total gastrectomy is widely used as a major surgical treatment for gastric cancer. The aims of this study were to investigate the possible effects of total gastrectomy on pancreas morphology, and to determine the immunolocalisation of chromogranin A (Cg A) and synaptophysin (SYP) antigens, described as specific tumour markers for neuroendocrine tumours. Ten rats underwent total gastrectomy via ...

Adenocarcinoma in long-segment Barrett's esophagus 44 years after total gastrectomy

Although Barrett's esophagus may occur without gastric acid, Barrett's adenocarcinoma after total gastrectomy is rare. Here, we present Barrett's adenocarcinoma in long-segment Barrett's esophagus after total gastrectomy. The patient was a 74-year-old male who underwent total gastrectomy 44 years ago. An endoscopic examination revealed long-segment Barrett's esophagus starting 17 cm from the in...

Intrathoracic Hernia after Total Gastrectomy

Intrathoracic hernias after total gastrectomy are rare. We report the case of a 78-year-old man who underwent total gastrectomy with antecolic Roux-Y reconstruction for residual gastric cancer. He had alcoholic liver cirrhosis and received radical laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy for gastric cancer 3 years ago. Early gastric cancer in the remnant stomach was found by routine upper gastrointest...
