    Total gastrectomy patients showed normal weight and nutrition 5-11 years post-surgery. While vitamin A absorption was unaffected, many experienced reflux and dumping symptoms, suggesting improved surgical techniques could prevent these issues.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Nutritional Science

    Context:

    • Assessing long-term outcomes after total gastrectomy is crucial for patient management.
    • Understanding the impact of gastrectomy on nutritional status and gastrointestinal function is essential.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the long-term (5-11 years) clinical and biochemical status of patients following total gastrectomy.
    • To investigate fat assimilation, nutritional status, and the incidence of specific postoperative complications.

    Summary:

    • Nine patients underwent follow-up 5-11 years after total gastrectomy.
    • Biochemical markers and vitamin A absorption (indicating fat assimilation) were normal, with patients regaining preoperative weight and showing no malnutrition.
    • However, eight patients reported severe reflux, and five experienced dumping symptoms, despite normal jejunal mucosa on endoscopy.

    Impact:

    • This study highlights that while total gastrectomy may not impair fundamental nutritional absorption long-term, significant symptomatic issues like reflux and dumping can persist.
    • The findings suggest that careful consideration of surgical techniques may help mitigate these common postoperative complaints, improving quality of life for gastrectomy patients.
