Application Value of Overlap Anastomosis and Common Opening Closure Method in Gastric Cancer Surgery and Key Points for Complications Prevention
Laparoscopic radical gastrectomy is the main clinical treatment for gastric cancer. In the surgery, digestive tract reconstruction is an important part, and esophago–jejunal anastomosis is a key step in reconstructing the digestive tract, often using the overlap anastomosis method. This anastomosis technique can reduce the tension of the anastomotic stoma and, to a certain extent, lower the risk of anastomosis related complications. In the overlap anastomosis surgery, how to close the common opening is related to the postoperative complications of patients. This article mainly introduces and analyzes the overlap anastomosis surgery and the common opening closure method for gastric cancer patients, and elaborates on the key points for preventing relevant complications after overlap anastomosis surgery.
