Overview

Systematic review identifies safety, efficacy, and nutritional impacts of kamikawa anastomosis in gastric cancer patients, suggesting potential benefits.

Key Points

  • Kamikawa anastomosis shows a 4% rate of reflux esophagitis after proximal gastrectomy, a significant concern post-surgery.
  • Pooled data from 20 studies reveal a 9.9% incidence of 30-day postoperative complications in patients undergoing this procedure.
  • Analysis utilized PRISMA guidelines with a systematic search across three major databases, ensuring comprehensive data inclusion.
  • Findings support the viability of kamikawa anastomosis with a balance of acceptable complications and benefits for patients with gastric cancer.
