Purpose: This study compares the feasibility and safety of Totally Laparoscopic Total Gastrectomy (TLTG) with Open Total Gastrectomy (OTG) for Remnant Gastric Cancer (RGC) in patients who had previously undergone gastrectomy.
Methods: We retrospectively collected and analyzed the data of 139 consecutive patients who underwent OTG along with 21 patients who underwent TLTG for RGC between January 2008 and December 2016. One-to-two Propensity Score Matching (PSM) was performed to compare the age, gender, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists score, clinical tumor stage, previous gastric disease, previous gastrectomy type, previous reconstruction type, history of previous upper abdominal surgery except gastrectomy, and combined major operations. A total of sixty patients (21 who underwent TLTG and 39 who underwent OTG) were matched, and surgical outcomes and survival rates were compared.
Results: The TLTG patients were found to recover bowel movements sooner than the OTG group (OTG 3.74±0.88 vs TLTG 3.19±0.81 days, p=0.02). Post-operative surgical outcomes, including pathological features, clinical courses, complications and survival rates did not differ between the two groups (p>0.05).
Conclusion: Although TLTG was not found to have any definitive clinical advantage over OTG except for more rapid recovery of bowel movement, TLTG should be considered as safe and feasible surgical procedure as OTG for the treatment of RGC.
