Abstract
To compare the clinic outcomes of endoscopic stenting and laparoscopic gastrojejunostomy (LGJ) for patients with malignant gastric outlet obstruction (GOO). We retrospectively reviewed 63 patients with malignant GOO that underwent endoscopic stenting [Stent Group (SG), n = 29] or LGJ [Laparoscopic Group (LG), n = 34]. Then, we evaluated the medical effects, postoperative hospital stay, and hospitalization expenses in both groups. Compared to LG, SG has a shorter operation time [SG: (41.1 ± 9.3) minutes vs LG: (137.4 ± 21.7) minutes, P = 0.000], less intra-operative blood loss [(23.7 ± 9.0) mL vs (121.1 ± 24.3) mL, P = 0.000], relatively lower hospitalization expenses [(2272.7 ± 413.9) $ vs (5182.4 ± 517.3) $, P = 0.000]. Besides, the median intake time was significantly shorter in the SG than that in the LG [(0.9 ± 0.3) days vs (4.1 ± 0.6) days, P = 0.000]. However, there were no significant differences between SG with LG in surgical success rate (100 vs 100%, P = 1.000), length of hospital stay [(6.1 ± 3.3) days vs (10.9 ± 4.7) days, P = 0.422], recurrent obstructive rate (37.9 vs 26.5%, P = 0.949) and median survivals [(141.4 ± 81.4) days vs (122.7 ± 88.8) days, P = 0.879]. Endoscopic stenting and LGJ are both relatively safe and effective treatments for patients with malignant GOO. But we suggest that endoscopic stenting should be considered first in patients with malignant GOO because it has many advantages over LGJ.
