STOMACH Flashcards
Type 1 ulcer location
Lesser curve
Type 2 ulcer location
lesser curve + duodenal (2 ulcers)
Type 3 ulcer location
Pre pyloric
Type 4 ulcer location
Proximal lesser curve (cardia)
Type 5 ulcer location
Diffuse
Type 1 EGJ tumor
distal part of esophagus located between 1-5 cm above anatomic EGJ
Type II EGJ tumor
cardia within 1 cm above and 2 cm below EGJ
Type III EGJ tumor
subcardial stomach (2-5 cm below EGJ)
Distal gastrectomy - the remnant is supplied by?
Short gastrics
Overall surgical goals in surgical mgmt of GERD
-restoration of normal anatomic position of stomach and GEJ
-recreation of anti reflux valve
-any hiatal hernia must be completely reduced which requires mediastinal dissection to ensure adequate esophageal mobilization
-any defect in crura must be closed
-complete mobilization of fundus
-2 cm long floppy fundoplication performed over large 54F bougie
Dor fundoplication
anterior 180-200
Toupet fundoplication
posterior 270
Thal fundoplication
270 anterior
Belsey fundoplication
270 anterior transthoracic
Lind fundoplication
300 posterior
Capnothorax - what do you do?
Enlarge tear to avoid tension capnothorax
Place red rubber catheter with one end into pleural tear and other end into abdomen to equalize pressures
At end of procedure bring one end outside of abdomen and place to waterseal while valsalva administered
Repair of hiatal hernia - what is the key step that decreases early recurrence?
mobilization adn excision of hernia sac
What kind of suture to close the diaphragmatic crura
Permanent
Tx of H pylori
PPI, clarithromycin and amoxicillin vs flagyl for 2 weeks OR bismuth, flagyl, tetracycline and PPI (esp if PCN allergy!!!)
Risk of rebleeding in visible vessel
up to 50%
risk of rebleeding when adherent clot
15-25%
risk of rebleeding when ulcer iwth clean base
<5%
Benefit of highly selective vagotomy
Preserves motor innervation to pylorus and eliminates need for drainage procwedure
When to consider vagotomy and antrectomy?
Higher morbidity than vagotomy and pyloroplasty or HSV secondary to need for billroth recon, but reserved for stable pts with anatomic indications like large antral ulcers, pyloric scarring
Genetics behind hereditary diffuse gastric ca
AD disorder 2/2 germline mutation in CDH1 (cell adhesion molecular E-cadherin)
CDH1 carriers - how do you treat?
Prophylactic gastrectomy recommended between 18-40 y.o.
*note women with CDH1 are at increased risk of breast CA similar to BRCA pts
Hereditary syndromes with increased risk of gastric CA
Lynch syndrome (DNA mismatch genes)
Juvenile polyposis syndrome (SMAD4)
Peutz Jehgers
FAP (APC gene on 5q21)
NCCN recommends laparoscopic staging with peritoneal washing in gastric CA at what T stage
Stage >T1b
T1a gastric CA
invades lamina propria or muscularis mucosa
T1b gastric CA
submucosa
T2 gastric CA
muscularis propria
T3 gastric CA
subserosa
T4 gastric CA
serosa or into adjacent structures
N1 gastric CA
1-2 nodes
N2 gastric CA
3-6 nodes
N3 gastric CA
7 or > nodes
Wahat is unresectable disease in gastric CA?
Peritoneal involvement, distal mets, root of mesentery involvement or para aortic nodal disease confirmed by bx, encasement of major vascular structure excluding splenic vessels
Who gets neoadjuvant therapy in gastric CA
cT2 or higher and any N (similar to esophageal and rectal CA!)
Margins and LN goals in gastric CA surgery
> 4 cm and LN at least 15
D1 dissection
removal of N1 nodes (perigastric nodes along greater/lesser curve stations 1-6)
D2 dissection
removal of N1 and N2 nodes (nodes along left gastric, common hepatic, celiac and splenic arteries, stations 7-11)
When is adjuvant therapy recommended for gastric CA
Adjuvant 5-FU for T3, T4 or node positive disease following R0 resection
What is retained antrum syndrome
retained antral tissue within duodenal stump after gastric resection. G cells bathed in alkaline fluid –> continuous gastrin release –> acid production in proximal stomach remnant and ulceration
Tx of retained antrum syndrome
PPI, vagotomy and resection of retained antrum
Early dumping syndrome
abrupt hyperosmolar load to small intestine and release of serotonin, neurotensin, bradykinins, and enteroglucagon
Late dumping syndrome
rapid carb load to small intestine resulting in large insulin surge and rebound hypoglycemia
refractory dumping syndrome
octreotide (or Roux en y esp if late dumping)
alkaline reflux gastritis
typically with billroth II anatomy, can be dx with impedance studies
Tx of alkaline reflux gastritiis
medical: pro kinetics, bile acid binding resins
Surgical: conversion to RNY
How long of a roux limb to avoid recurrent bile reflux
50 cm
What is afferent limb syndrome
acute or chronic obstruction of afferent jejunal limb following bilroth 2 recon. Increased luminal pressure of afferent limb can lead to obstructive jaundice, cholanigtis, peancreatitis from back pressure up biliopancreatic system, duodeanal stump blow out, bacterial overgrowth in afferent limb
Tx of afferent limb syndrome
conversion to roux en y or bilroth 1 OR braun (enteroentero from afferent limb to efferent)– bacterial overgrowth can be managed first with antibiotics
the anterior vagal trunk divides into?
hepatic division and anterior gastric nerve (anterior nerve of latarjet)
