title: [Surgical Outcome of Palliative Surgery for Gastric Cancer Patients with Bowel Obstruction Due to Peritoneal Dissemination].
abstract: A retrospective cohort analysis was performed for 21 consecutive patients who underwent palliative surgery for bowel obstruction due to peritoneal metastasis from gastric cancer. Surgical site infection occurred in 5 of 21 patients, but there were no severe(Clavien-Dindo Grade III or higher)complications, and symptoms of bowel obstruction were improved in 20 of 21 patients. The median survival time was 6.6 months. The survival rate was significantly worse for patients in modified Glasgow prognostic score(mGPS)group D compared with those in mGPS group non-D(p=0.0001). Surgery for malignant bowel obstruction was feasible and effective for palliation.
