[Roux-Y reconstruction following distal stomach resection using only staplers].
The spreading of stapled suture techniques has also entailed the utilization of staplers in gastric surgery. A functional, up-to-date, and exclusively stapled reconstruction procedure, Roux-Y-reconstruction, after subtotal gastrectomy was established and analyzed in a pilot study (n = 25). In doing so, one proceeded as follows after subtotal gastrectomy and systematic lymphadenectomy in cases of carcinoma: duodenal closure (GIA or TA30), gastric resection (TA90), jejunojejunostomy (EEA25), gastrojejunostomy (EEA25/28), closure of the projecting efferent loop (GIA). This study intended to achieve the following advantages: increased suture safety, saving of time, reduction of complications, and especially the extension of indications regarding age and localization of the tumor. A special program to eliminate mistakes in handling is required for the sole and systematic application of staplers in the upper gastrointestinal tract. Every complication occurring during and after surgery was carefully recorded in this study and the attainable quality of life after subtotal gastrectomy was assessed.
