NCT03085199

Brief Summary

Until now, no prospective clinical trial for duodenal stump leakage after laparoscopic or open gastrectomy for gastric cancer patients has been conducted. We already introduced a technique of laparoscopic reinforcement suture (LARS) on staple-line of duodenal stump using barbed suture for prevention of duodenal stump leakage. Therefore, a prospective phase II study was designed for safety of this technique.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • the incidence of duodenal stump fistula within postoperative 30 days

    Duodenal stump fistula was defined as clinical suspicion, laboratory finding of fluid from drain or radiologic finding such as CT scan or fistulogram.

    30 days

Study Arms (1)

Laparoscopic reinforcement suture

OTHER

After cutting of duodenal stump of about 2 cm length using linear stapler, laparoscopic reinforcement suture commenced from upper to lower part on staple-line of duodenal stump. Continuous suture with invagination was performed using a barbed suture. In case of patient with short duodenal stump because of chronic ulcer or ectopic pancreas at duodenal bulb, 2 or 3 interrupted sutures without invagination of duodenal stump was conducted using barbed sutures.
