Endoscopic Procedures IV: Sigmoidoscopy and Laproscopy

Sigmoidoscopy and laparoscopy are distinct medical procedures that enable physicians to internally inspect different parts of the GI tract. Although they serve different purposes, each is essential for diagnosing and, in some cases, treating various medical conditions.
Sigmoidoscopy
Sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a flexible sigmoidoscope equipped with a light source and camera to examine the rectum and sigmoid colon. The procedure involves inserting the tube through the anus...

Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy offers superior short-term outcomes compared to open surgery. While oncologic results are comparable, more evidence is needed for laparoscopic total gastrectomy, especially regarding long-term outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Minimally invasive surgery
  • Surgical oncology
  • Gastrointestinal surgery

Background:

  • Laparoscopic Assisted Distal Gastrectomy (LADG) is included in gastric cancer guidelines.
  • Meta-analysis shows LADG superior to Open Distal Gastrectomy (ODG) for short-term outcomes.
  • Limited evidence exists for Laparoscopic Total Gastrectomy (LTG) long-term oncologic outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current evidence on laparoscopic gastrectomy techniques.
  • To compare short-term and oncologic outcomes of LADG versus ODG.
  • To highlight the need for further research on LTG.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing meta-analyses, RCTs, and retrospective studies.
  • Description of surgical steps for Laparoscopic Subtotal Gastrectomy (LSG) and LTG.

Clinical Application of Single-Surgeon, Three-Port, Laparoscopic Resection for Colorectal Cancer with Natural Orifice Specimen Extraction

Published on: March 24, 2023

  • Discussion of reconstruction techniques including Roux-en-Y and Orringer method.

    • Main Results:

    • LADG demonstrates significant short-term benefits over ODG.
    • Oncologic outcomes of LADG are comparable to ODG based on available studies.
    • Robotic assistance enhances precision in lymphadenectomy and reconstruction.

    Conclusions:

    • Laparoscopic gastrectomy, particularly LADG, is a viable option with favorable short-term results.
    • Further investigation into LTG is crucial to establish its long-term oncologic safety and efficacy.
    • Robotic-assisted surgery shows promise for improving laparoscopic gastrectomy procedures.
