Purpose: to investigate if combining VT to DGR through the pylorus can modulate the biological behavior of PL induced by DGR and to verify if TV alone can induce morphologic lesions in the gastric mucosa. Methods: 62 male Wistar rats were assigned to four groups: 1 Control (CT) gastrotomy; 2 Troncular Vagotomy (TV) plus gastrotomy; 3 Duodenogastric reflux through the pylorus (R) and 4 Troncular...

There are many therapeutic modalities for managing gastric bezoars. These include nasogastric lavage or suction, enzymatic therapy, the use of prokinetic agents and gastroscopic fragmentation and extraction (1-3). If these non-operative treatments fail, a surgical approach is needed and removal of the bezoar has classically been performed by gastrotomy. To our knowledge there are few articles a...

PURPOSE Various laparoscopic wedge resection (LWR) techniques requiring gastrotomy for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) of the stomach have been applied to facilitate tumor resection and preserve the remnant gastric volume. However, there is the possibility of cancer cell dissemination during these procedures. The aim of this study was to assess the oncologic safety of LWR with gastrotom...

Background: Pancreaticoduodenectomy is a standard procedure for periampullary tumours. Pancreatic anastomosis the Achilles heel of with significant leak rate and associated high morbidity. We adopted modified pancreatic stump drainage pancreato-gastrostomy - mobilization invagination into lumen stomach via posterior gastrotomy fixation two U shaped sutures to wall traversing across parenchyma.Â
