Abstract
The survival of patients with gastric cancer is improved by early diagnosis and surgical treatment. However, there is no established treatment for locally recurrent cancer or cancer arising at an anastomotic site after total gastrectomy; further, most surgeons are reluctant to resect this type of cancer because of frequent systemic metastasis and there are few competent surgeons who have the skill to perform such an operation. We have experienced recurrent cancer at an anastomotic site after total gastrectomy: one patient had recurrent cancer and two patients had metachronous cancer. All these patients were operated on and the patients were discharged without any complications. All of them are alive at the time of this report. In some cases, good results could be expected for operating on recurrent cancer of an anastomotic site after previous total gastrectomy. So, we present here our experience along with a review of literatures.
진단의 발달과 치료의 발전으로 위암의 치료 성적은 괄목한 성장이 이루어졌으나 근치적 위전절제술 후 암의 발생, 즉 문합부 재발암과 전이 그리고 이시성암이 발생되었을때 외과적 치료에 대한 보고와 결과는 많지 않으며, 특히 문합부에만 국소적으로 발생된 암은 흔치 않다. 근치적 위전절제술 후 문합부에만 국소적으로 발생된 암에 대하여 적극적인 수술을 함으로써 생존이 연장되었다는 보고가 있다. 연구자들은 위선암으로 근치적 위전절제술 후 발생한 문합부 국소재발 1예, 이시성 편평상피암 1예, 림프종 1예에 대하여 원격전이가 없음을 확인한 후 수술을 시행하여 모두 좋은 결과를 얻어 이에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
