摘要
Background. Jejunal pouch reconstruction after total gastrectomy has been demonstrated to ameliorate postgastrectomy symptoms, with the process of adaptation taking several months. In contrast to the short-term effects of pouch reconstruction, there are few reports about the long-term consequences (more than 2 years after surgery). Methods. In this study, 22 patients with jejunal pouch (PRY group) and 12 patients without jejunal pouch (RY group) who survived for more than 2 years without any recurrence and were available for follow-up were compared. Patients in the two groups were compared 2 years after surgery in terms of postgastrectomy symptoms, and improvements in body weight and nutritional parameters. Results. Eating capacity at a single meal compared with that in the pre-illness state was significantly better in the PRY group than in the RY group. The total score on the gastrointestinal symptom rating scale (GSRS) in the PRY group was less than that in the RY group (3.17 vs 5.25). The GSRS score for reflux syndrome in the PRY group was significantly better than that in the RY group. Assessment according to Cuschieri's gradings revealed that the total score in the PRY group was lower than that in the RY group (2.73 vs 5.92). Among the various symptoms examined, the incidence of dietary restriction and that of heartburn were significantly lower in the PRY group. Conclusion. We conclude that, 2 years after total gastrectomy, the pouch reconstruction had alleviated postgastrectomy symptoms to a greater extent than simple Roux-en-Y reconstruction, but the effectiveness could be improved. The long-term effects of pouch reconstruction should be examined more precisely with an adequate and valid scoring system for determining quality of life.
