Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Laparoscopic intragastric surgery (LIGS) is established in Japan for early gastric cancers and submucosal tumors.
  • Original LIGS methods present technical challenges, including complex gastric lumen access and port site repair.
  • Improved techniques are needed to enhance the safety and efficiency of LIGS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of a 5-mm radially expandable sleeve (RES) in simplifying laparoscopic intragastric surgery (LIGS).
  • To assess the impact of RES on gastric lumen access and port site management during LIGS procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Implementation of a 5-mm radially expandable sleeve (RES) for working ports in LIGS.
  • Comparison of procedures using RES versus traditional LIGS techniques.

  • Assessment of technical ease for gastric lumen access and port site closure.

    • Main Results:

    • The use of RES significantly simplifies the establishment of gastric lumen access during LIGS.
    • RES eliminates the need for repairing port sites on the gastric wall post-procedure.
    • LIGS procedures utilizing RES were found to be less invasive and technically easier.

    Conclusions:

    • The 5-mm radially expandable sleeve (RES) offers a significant technical improvement for laparoscopic intragastric surgery (LIGS).
    • RES adoption can lead to a more streamlined, less invasive surgical approach for gastric conditions.
    • This modification enhances the practicality and broader applicability of LIGS in clinical settings.
