Clinical application of reserved gastric tube in neuroendoscopic endonasal surgery for pituitary tumor

BACKGROUND The neuroendoscopic approach has the advantages of a clear operative field,convenient tumor removal,and less damage,and is the development direction of modern neurosurgery.At present,transnasal surgery for sphenoidal pituitary tumor is widely used.But it has been found in clinical practice that some patients with this type of surgery may experience post-operative nausea and vomiting and other discomforts.AIM To explore the effect of reserved gastric tube application in the neuroendoscopic endonasal resection of pituitary tumors.METHODS A total of 60 patients who underwent pituitary adenoma resection via the endoscopic endonasal approach were selected and randomly divided into the experimental and control groups,with 30 in each group.Experimental group:After anesthesia,a gastric tube was placed through the mouth under direct vision using a visual laryngoscope,and the fluid accumulated in the oropharynx was suctioned intermittently with low negative pressure throughout the whole process after nasal disinfection,during the operation,and when the patient recovered from anesthesia.Control group:Given the routine intraoperative care,no gastric tube was left.The number of cases of nausea/vomiting/aspiration within 24 h post-operation was counted and compared between the two groups;the scores of pharyngalgia after waking up,6 h post-operation,and 24 h postoperation.The frequency of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage and intracranial infection were compared.The hospitalization days of the two groups were statistically compared.RESULTS The times of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the experimental group were lower than that in the control group,and the difference in the incidence of nausea was statistically significant(P<0.05).After the patient woke up,the scores of sore throat 6 h after the operation and 24 h after operation were lower than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The number of cases of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage and intracranial infection was higher than that of the control group,but there was no statistically significant difference from the control group(P>0.05).The hospitalization days of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Reserving a gastric tube in the endoscopic endonasal resection of pituitary tumors,combined with intraoperative and postoperative gastrointestinal decompression,can effectively reduce the incidence of nausea,reduce the number of vomiting and aspiration in patients,and reduce the complications of sore throat The incidence rate shortened the hospitalization days of the patients.

Application of Modified Gastric Tube Placement in Patients with Indwelling Gastric Tube

Objective:To explore the effect of modified nasogastric tube placement and Rehabilitation New Liquid Spray in patients with indwelling gastric tube.Methods:Eighty-six cases with indwelling gastric tube in our hospital from January 2020 to May 2021 were randomly selected and divided into the reference group and the research group.The reference group was treated by modified gastric tube placement,and the research group was given the Rehabilitation New Liquid Spray intervention.The effect of the interventions on two groups was observed.Results:The incidence of nasal mucosal injury in the research group was lower than that in the reference group,and the incidence of pharyngeal mucosal injury in the research group was lower than that in the reference group(P<0.05).The pain score of the study group was lower than that of the reference group at 8 h,12 h and 24 h after replacement,and the incidence of hoarseness,swallowing discomfort and dry oropharynx was lower than that of the reference group(P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of modified gastric tube placement and Rehabilitation New Liquid Spray intervention in patients with indwelling gastric tube can effectively reduce the nasopharyngeal injury and improve the pain of catheterization.

Two-step method for creating a gastric tube during laparoscopic-thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy

AIM To introduce a two-step method for creating a gastric tube during laparoscopic-thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy and assess its clinical application.METHODS One hundred and twenty-two patients with middle or lower esophageal cancer who underwent laparoscopicthoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy at Liaoning Cancer Hospital and Institute from March 2014 to March 2016 were included in this study,and divided into two groups based on the procedure used for creating a gastric tube. One group used a two-step method for creating a gastric tube,and the other group used the conventional method. The two groups were compared regarding the operating time,surgical complications,and number of stapler cartridges used.RESULTS The mean operating time was significantly shorter in the two-step method group than in the conventional method group [238(179-293) min vs 272(189-347) min,P < 0.01]. No postoperative death occurred in either group. There was no significant difference in the rate of complications [14(21.9%) vs 13(22.4%),P= 0.55] or mean number of stapler cartridges used [5(4-6) vs 5.2(5-6),P = 0.007] between the two groups.CONCLUSION The two-step method for creating a gastric tube during laparoscopic-thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy has the advantages of simple operation,minimal damage to the tubular stomach,and reduced use of stapler cartridges.

Distal gastric tube resection with vascular preservation for gastric tube cancer:A case report and review of literature

BACKGROUND Survival rates in patients with esophageal cancer undergoing esophagectomy have improved,but the prevalence of gastric tube cancer(GTC)has also increased.Total resection of the gastric tube with lymph node dissection is considered a radical treatment,but GTC surgery is more invasive and involves a higher risk of severe complications or death,particularly in elderly patients.CASE SUMMARY We report an elderly patient with early GTC that had invaded the duodenum who was successfully treated with resection of the distal gastric tube and Roux-en-Y(R-Y)reconstruction.The tumor was a type 0-IIc lesion with ulcer scars surrounding the pyloric ring.Endoscopic submucosal resection was not indicated because the primary lesion was submucosally invasive,was undifferentiated type,surrounded the pyloric ring,and had invaded the duodenum.Resection of distal gastric tube with R-Y reconstruction was safely performed,with preservation of the right gastroepiploic artery(RGEA)and right gastric artery(RGA).CONCLUSION Distal resection of the gastric tube with preservation of the RGEA and RGA is a good treatment option for elderly patients with cT1bN0 GTC in the lower part of the gastric tube.

Efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection for gastric tube cancer:A multicenter retrospective study

BACKGROUND Recent improvements in the prognosis of patients with esophageal cancer have led to the increased occurrence of gastric tube cancer(GTC)in the reconstructed gastric tube.However,there are few reports on the treatment results of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)for GTC.AIM To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ESD for GTC after esophagectomy in a multicenter trial.METHODS We retrospectively investigated 48 GTC lesions in 38 consecutive patients with GTC in the reconstructed gastric tube after esophagectomy who had undergone ESD between January 2005 and December 2019 at 8 institutions participating in the Okayama Gut Study group.The clinical indications of ESD for early gastric cancer were similarly applied for GTC after esophagectomy.ESD specimens were evaluated in 2-mm slices according to the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma with curability assessments divided into curative and non-curative resection based on the Gastric Cancer Treatment Guidelines.Patient characteristics,treatment results,clinical course,and treatment outcomes were analyzed.RESULTS The median age of patients was 71.5 years(range,57-84years),and there were 34 men and 4 women.The median observation period after ESD was 884 d(range,8-4040 d).The median procedure time was 81 min(range,29-334 min),the en bloc resection rate was 91.7%(44/48),and the curative resection rate was 79%(38/48).Complications during ESD were seen in 4%(2/48)of case,and those after ESD were seen in 10%(5/48)of case.The survival rate at 5 years was 59.5%.During the observation period after ESD,10 patients died of other diseases.Although there were differences in the procedure time between institutions,a multivariate analysis showed that tumor size was the only factor associated with prolonged procedure time.CONCLUSION ESD for GTC after esophagectomy was shown to be safe and effective.

Qualitative study on influencing factors of refusal of gastric tube placement in stroke patients with dysphagia

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of patients with dysphagia after stroke who refuse to accept gastric tube implantation,and to provide intervention basis for improving the compliance of patients with gastric tube implantation.Methods:Asemi-structured interview method was used to conduct in-depth interviews with 11 patients who refused gastric tube placement,and the interview data were analyzed by Colaizzi analysis method.Results:The influencing factors of patients with dysphagia after stroke can be summarized into the following three themes:patient factors(patient's cognition of disease,patient's subjective pain perception and fear),family factors(patient's caregiver's cognition of disease,economic conditions)and medical factors(trust in medical staff,medical education methods).Conclusion:Medical staff should understand the influencing factors of dysphagia after stroke and take positive measures to improve the compliance of patients with gastric tube placement and ensure the treatment effect.

Clinical characteristics and management of gastric tube cancer with endoscopic submucosal dissection

AIM:To identify the characteristics of gastric tube cancer(GTC) and the complications associated with endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) for GTC.METHODS:Between 2007 and 2012,11 individualswith early gastric cancer in the reconstructed gastric tube after esophagectomy who underwent ESD in this hospital were studied.The characteristics of GTC were identified,and the complications of ESD for GTC were analyzed at three phases:preoperative,intraoperative,and postoperative.RESULTS:A total of 11 consecutive patients with 11 GTCs were selected for this study.All cases underwent en bloc resections by ESD.The median procedure time was 142 min.The average GTC diameter was 26.1 mm,and the average size of the resected lesions was 45.5 mm.The histopathological diagnosis in all cases was a differentiated adenocarcinoma.In the preoperative phase,anastomotic strictures(5/11,45%) and food residues(4/11,36.4%) in the gastric tube were the main complications.In the intraoperative phase,bleeding was observed in 5 cases(45%).The postoperative complications observed were delayed bleeding in 2 cases(18.2%) and stenosis in one case(9.1%).The case with stenosis was successfully treated using endoscopic balloon dilatation.CONCLUSION:Minor complications were frequently observed.However,all GTCs underwent en bloc resection with ESD without any serious complications.ESD is considered a useful treatment for GTC.

Pedunculated gastric tube interposition in an esophageal cancer patient with prepyloric adenocarcinoma

Gastric carcinoma is one of the malignancies that are most frequently associated with esophageal carcinoma.We describe herein our device for advanced esophageal cancer associated with early gastric cancer in the antrum.A 57-year-old man presenting with dysphagia and upper abdominal pain was admitted to our hospital.Preoperative examinations revealed locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the middle thoracic esophagus (T3N0M0 Stage ⅡA) and mucosal signetring cell carcinoma of the gastric antrum (T1N0M0 Stage ⅠA).Although the gastric tumor appeared to be an intramucosal carcinoma,its margin was obscure,so endoscopic en-bloc resection was considered inadequate.We chose surgical resection of the gastric tumor as well as the esophageal SCC after neoadjuvant chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin for advanced esophageal cancer.Following transthoracic esophagectomy with three-field lymph node dissection,the gastric carcinoma was removed by gastric antrectomy,which preserved the right gastroepiploic vessels,and a pedunculated short gastric tube was used as the esophageal substitute.Twenty-eight months after the surgery,the patient is well with no evidence of cancer recurrence.Because it minimizes surgical stress and organ sacrifice,gastric tube interposition is a potentially useful technique for esophageal cancer associated with localized early gastric cancer.

Intraoperative Gastric Tube Intubation: A Summary of Case Studies and Review of the Literature

Study Objective: Establish complications and risk factors that are associated with blind tube insertion, evaluate the validity of correct placement verification methods, establish the rationales supporting its employment by anesthesia providers, and describe various deployment facilitators described in current literature. Measurements: An exhaustive literature review of the databases Medline, CINAHL, Cochrane Collaboration, Scopus, and Google Scholar was performed applying the search terms “gastric tube”, “complications”, “decompression”, “blind insertion”, “perioperative”, “intraoperative” in various order sequences. A five-year limit was applied to limit the number and timeliness of articles selected. Main Results: Patients are exposed to potentially serious morbidity and mortality from blindly inserted gastric tubes. Risk factors associated with malposition include blind insertion, the presence of endotracheal tubes, altered sensorium, and previous tube misplacements. Pulmonary aspiration risk prevention remains the only indication for anesthesia-related intraoperative use. There are no singularly effective tools that predict or verify the proper placement of blindly inserted gastric tubes. Current placement facilitation techniques are perpetuated through anecdotal experience and technique variability warrants further study. Conclusion: In the absence of aspiration risk factors or the need for surgical decompression in ASA classification I & II patients, a moratorium should be instituted on the elective use of gastric tubes.

A Meta-Analysis of the Effect of Modified Gastric Tube Length on Enteral Nutrition in Stroke Patients

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of modified length of gastric tube implantation in stroke patients.Methods:Randomized controlled studies on the effect of narrative therapy on negative emotions of malignant tumor patients were published in PubMed,EMbase,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,CNKY.Wanfang Data,VIP Database and CBM disc from database establishment to May 2021.RewMan 5.2 software was used for the meta-analysis.Results:Ten articles were included,involving 1140 patients in total.Results of meta-analysis showed that improved length of gastric tube implantation could reduce the incidence of aspiration pneumonia in stroke patients with enteral nutrition[OR=0.18,95%CI(0.10,0.31),P<0.00001],reduce gastroesophageal reflux rate[OR=0.13,95%CI(0.04,0.38),P<0.0002],the incidence of aspiration[OR=0.23,95%CI(0.11,0.38),P<0.00001],the incidence of abdominal distension and diarrhea[OR=0.13,95%CI(0.06,0.28),P<0.00001],the incidence of choking cough[OR=0.20,95%CI(0.07,0.61),P<0.005],but no difference between the two groups in terms of reducing gastric residual[OR=0.10,95%CI(2.40,2.60),P=0.94].Conclusions:The modified length of the gastric tube can replace the traditional length of the gastric tube in the application of stroke patients,can reduce the complications of enteral nutrition,is safe and feasible.However,due to the limitation of the quality and quantity of the included studies,we should be cautious about the results of this meta-analysis and expect to carry out more large-sample and high-quality randomized controlled trials for demonstration.

Safety of gastric lavage using nasogastric ryle’s tube in pesticide poisoning

Objective: Gastric lavage is mandatory irrespective of nature in all patients with acute poisoning in India. Present study was undertaken with aim whether lavage done using nasogastric Ryle’s tube and small aliquots of water or normal saline is safe. Patients and Methods: All the patients above 12 years of age admitted consecutively with pesticide ingestion or exposure between July 2004 to June 2005 were studied with respect to complications associated with lavage using Ryle’s tube. Forty five patients were admitted directly to our hospital and lavage was undertaken using Ryle’s tube (16F ) with 100 - 200 mL of aliquots till 1 - 1.5 liters of fluid was lavaged, with prophylactic endotracheal intubation in patients with Glasgow coma scale ( GCS) < 10 (group I). The incidence of complications related to lavage in group I was compared to that in 53 patients admitted during same period with pesticide poisoning but lavaged outside using nasogastric Ryle’s tube and referred to our institute (group II). Results: The significant complications observed in group I were significant drop in SaO2 (6 patients) laryngospasm, tachycardia, electrolyte imbalance and tube getting struck in throat (one each). In one patient in group I (had no prophylactic intubation though GCS 3) In group II, 7 had aspiration pneumonia (no prophylactic intubation). Other significant complication was drop in SaO2 during lavage. None of them had any serious life threatening complication. Conclusion: Gastric lavage carried out using nasogastric Ryle’s tube and small aliquots of water or normal saline is relatively safe in patients with pesticide poisoning when combined with prophylactic endotracheal intubation in patients with GCS < 10. In absence of prophylactic intubation, risk of aspiration is there. However aspiration pneumonia is generally mild and not life threatening.
