RESUMO
Objective To investigate the earlier diagnostic methods and operative procedures of gastric remnant cancer. Methods Clinicopathologic data of 19 cases of gastric remnant cancer were retrospectively analysed,and the diagnostic value of the gastroscopy and barium meal was compared.Influencing the prognosis of gastric remnant cancer treated by different operations according to the situation seen during operation were observed. Results The diagnostic rate of gastroscopy and barium meal was 78.9% and 47.4%, respectively.All the 5 cases who underwent radical remnant gastrectomy sarvived≥3 years postoperatively.Two of the 3 cases who underwent palliative remnant gastrectomy survived 2 years and 1 alived 1.5 years postoperatively. In 6 cases of gastrojejunostomy, 4 cases died within half year, 2 cases died 12.5 and 14 months postoperatively. Conclusions The diagnostic value of gastroscopy takes advantage over barium meal examination. The patients who treated by radical remnant gastrectomy have better prognosis.
