    Abstract Introduction: The aim of this study was to search in the recent literature for scientific evidence about the role of laparoscopic distal gastrectomy (LDG) in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC) in elderly patients.
    Evidence acquisition: An analysis of the literature of the last twenty years (from 2001 to 2021) was then carried out.
    Evidence synthesis: It showed how the characteristics of the general population, which is aging, and of patients undergoing surgery for GC, also increasingly elderly and, therefore, more fragile, have changed.
    Conclusions: We have traced the evolution of minimally invasive treatment, with specific regard to LDG, highlighting how this method is not only able to allow an oncologically correct treatment similar to the traditional technique, but, above all, offers short-term advantages especially in elderly patients.

    Abstract Neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced gastric cancer is a treatment option well recognized in international guidelines. However, neither completed randomized trials nor ongoing studies (will) offer definitive answers about the efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy. With extensive experience confirming the safety and some efficacy for this approach most current studies are focused on identifying the best preoperative treatment regimen. We try to clarify if is really the time to slow down the enthusiasm about neoadjuvant approach.

    Abstract Background: Many Eastern reports attempted to identify predictive variables for esophago-jejunal anastomosis leakage (EJAL) after total gastrectomy for cancer. There are no definitive answers about reliable risk factors for EJAL. This retrospective study shows the largest Western series focused on this topic.
    Methods: This is a multicenter retrospective study analyzing patients' datasets collected by 18 Italian referral Centres of the Italian Research Group for Gastric Cancer (GIRCG) from 2000 to 2018. The inclusion criteria were pathological diagnosis of gastric and esophageal (Siewert III) carcinoma requiring total gastrectomy. The primary end point of risk analysis was the occurrence of EJAL; secondary end points were post-operative (30-day) morbidity and mortality, length of stay (LoS), and survival.
    Results: Data of 1750 patients submitted to total gastrectomy were collected. EJAL developed in 116 (6.6%) patients and represented the 26.3% of all the 441 observed post-operative surgical complications. EJAL diagnosis was followed by a reoperation in 39 (33.6%) patients and by an endoscopic/radiological procedure in 30 cases (25.9%). In 47 patients (40.5%) EJAL was managed with conservative approach. Post-operative LoS and mortality were significantly higher after EJAL occurrence (27 days versus 12 days and 8.6% versus 1.6%, respectively). At risk analysis, comorbidities (particularly, if respiratory), minimally invasive surgery, extended lymphadenectomy, and anastomotic technique resulted significant predictive factors for EJAL. EJAL did not significantly affect survival.
    Conclusions: These results were consistent with Asian experiences: the frequency of EJAL and its higher rate observed in patients with comorbidities or after minimally invasive approach were confirmed.

    Abstract Aim: To clarify the advantages of negative pressure therapy (NPT) compared to other methods of temporary abdominal closure (TAC) in the management of secondary peritonitis.
    Methods: We retraced the history of known methods of TAC, and analyzed their advantages and disadvantages. We evaluated as the NPT mechanisms, both from the macroscopic that bio-molecular point of view, well suits to manage this difficult condition.
    Results: The ideal TAC technique should be quick to apply, easy to change, protect and contain the abdominal viscera, decrease bowel edema, prevent loss of domain and abdominal compartment syndrome, limit contamination, allow egress of peritoneal fluid (and its estimation) and not result in adhesions. It should also be cost-effective, minimize the number of dressing changes and the number of surgical revisions, and ensure a high rate of early closure with a low rate of complications (especially entero-atmospheric fistula). For NPT, the reported fistula rate is 7%, primary fascial closure ranges from 33 to 100% (average 60%) and the mortality rate is about 20%. With the use of NPT as TAC, it may be possible to extend the window of time to achieve primary fascial closure (for up to 20-40 days).
    Conclusion: NPT has several potential advantages in open-abdomen (OA) management of secondary peritonitis and may make it possible to achieve all the goals suggested above for an ideal TAC system. Only trained staff should use NPT, following the manufacturer's instructions when commercial products are used. Even if there was a significant evolution in OA management, we believe that further research into the role of NPT for secondary peritonitis is necessary.
