Oveview

Total gastrectomy is recommended for the management of local disease. However, it is important to note that patients with linitis plastica usually present at an advanced stage when metastasis has already occurred, surgery at this point is often not curative but rather improves the chances of survival. Surgical resection is not recommended among patients with metastatic linitis plastica, radiotherapy and chemotherapy are utilized instead.

Surgery

Selection of the surgery

  • Pancreaticosplenectomy
  • Total gastrectomy with splenectomy

Lymph nodes resection

  • One of the most controversial areas in the surgical management of gastric cancer is the optimal extent of lymph node dissection.[3]
  • The draining lymph nodes for the stomach have been meticulously divided into 16 stations by Japanese surgeons; stations 1 to 6 are perigastric, and the remaining 10 are located adjacent to major vessels, behind the pancreas, and along the aorta.[4]

D1 lymphadenectomy

  • It refers to a dissection of only the perigastric lymph nodes.
  • A D1 lymphadenectomy is indicated for T1a tumors that do not meet the criteria for EMR/ ESD and for T1bN0 tumors that are histologically of differentiated type and 1.5 cm or smaller in diameter.

D2 lymphadenectomy

D3 dissection

Local palliative preocedures

Reconstruction after gastrectomy

Total gastrectomy

  • Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy[7]
  • Jejunal interposition
  • Double tract method
