Simultaneous laparoscopic procedures in patients with synchronous multiple primary gastric and kidney cancer

Abstract

To evaluate an effectiveness of simultaneous laparoscopic procedures in patients with synchronous multiple primary cancer (SMPC). We observed 3 patients (2 men and 1 woman) aged 61-78 years with synchronous multiple primary gastric and kidney cancer. Gastric tumors were localized in the lower third of the body (1) and the antrum (2), histological structure corresponded to adenocarcinoma G1 (1) and G2 (2). Kidney tumors were verified as light cell carcinoma and localized in the upper segment of the left kidney in 2 patient and right kidney in one patient. Mean dimension of tumor scheduled for resection was 4.65 cm, nephrectomy - 10.3 cm. Complexity of resection according to the RENAL scale was equal to 8 and 10. Three patients underwent laparoscopic Billroth-I distal gastrectomy, 2 - kidney resection and one patient - nephrectomy. Mean surgery time was 265±37 min, blood loss - 175±29 ml. There were no conversion and redo interventions within 30 days after surgery. Mean hospital-stay was 11±2 days. Minimally invasive technologies in patients with SMPC reduces blood loss, ICU- and hospital-stay. Earlier rehabilitation ensures the next stage of treatment in early postoperative period, while quality of life is better in comparison with traditional interventions.
