AIM:To re-evaluate the recent clinicopathological features of remnant gastric cancer (RGC) and to develop desirable surveillance programs.METHOIDS:Between 1997 and 2008,1149 patients underwent gastrectomy for gastric cancer at the Department of Digestive Surgery,Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine,Japan.Of these,33 patients underwent gastrectomy with lymphadenectomy for RGC.Regarding the initial gastric disease,there were 19 patients with benign disease and 14 patients with gastric cancer.The hospital records of these patients were reviewed retrospectively.RESULTS:Concerning the initial gastric disease,the RGC group following gastric cancer had a shorter interval [P ＜ 0.05; gastric cancer vs benign disease:12 (2-22) vs 30 (4-51) years] and were more frequently reconstructed by Billroth- I procedure than those following benign lesions (P ＜ 0.001).Regarding reconstruction,RGC following Billroth-Ⅱ reconstruction showed a longer interval between surgical procedures [P ＜ 0.001; Billroth- 11 vs Billroth- Ⅰ:32 (5-51) vs 12 (2-36) years] and tumors were more frequently associated with benign disease (P ＜ 0.001) than those following Billroth- I reconstruction.In tumor location of RGC,after Billroth- I reconstruction,RGC occurred more frequently near the suture line and remnant gastric wall.After Billroth- Ⅱ reconstruction,RGC occurred more frequently at the anastomotic site.The duration of followup was significantly associated with the stage of RGC (P ＜ 0.05).Patients diagnosed with early stage RGC such as stage I -Ⅱ tended to have been followed up almost every second year.CONCLUSION:Meticulous follow-up examination and early detection of RGC might lead to a better prognosis.Based on the initial gastric disease and the procedure of reconstruction,an appropriate follow-up interval and programs might enable early detection of RGC.
