Robotic Gastrectomy and D2Lymphadenectomy
Woo Jin Hyung, Yanghee Woo
Robotic surgery is a successful approach to the management of curable patients with gastric cancer. Since the rst laparoscopic radical gastrectomy was reported by Kitano etal. in 1994, the minimally invasive approach for gastric cancer surgery has gained favor as the procedure of choice for many experts. Minimally invasive radical gastrectomy oers the benet of shorter hospital stay, decreased postoperative pain, earlier return of bowel function, and less blood loss than open gastric cancer operations. e widespread application of the laparoscopy in gastric cancer sur­gery, however, has been limited owing to the technical complexity of a radical gastrectomy with extended lymphadenectomy (LND) and the concerns about maintaining oncological principles during the laparoscopic procedures.
Gastric cancer surgeons are adopting the robotic technology of the da Vinci Surgical Systems to assist in the technically challenging procedure of radical gastrectomy with extended LND. e technical advantages of the improved three-dimensional magnied operative view, the precision of the tremor lter and articulating instruments, along with the ability of the surgeon to control four arms provide the surgeon with superior control over the entire procedure. Robotic surgery for gastric cancer has been demonstrated to be safe and feasible with an expected shorter learn ing curve. e data from retrospective studies and limited prospective comparisons support the
hort-term benets of robotic gastrectomy (RG) to be comparable with those of laparoscopy and,
s when compared with open surgery, to oer the advantages of the minimally invasive approach. Moreover, adherence to the oncological principles of gastric cancer treatment, such as the no-touch technique, negative margins, and adequate lymph node (LN) dissection is being practiced using da Vinci Surgical Systems (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, California, USA).
Debate continues on the eciency of robotic radical gastrectomies, however, because the dis­advantages such as longer operative time, limited training opportunities, and increased cost of the r
obotic system fuel the controversies. In the absence of randomized trials evaluating the operative morbidity, mortality, long-term outcome, quality of life, and cost-eectiveness of RG, the decision to perform RG is based largely on the perceived advantages for the surgeon conferred by the new technology and the known improved postoperative patient outcomes of minimally invasive surgery.
Robotic radical gastrectomy is a sound minimally invasive option for the surgical treatment of gastric cancer patients with the potential for great benet for both the surgeon and the patient. As surgeons become increasingly sophisticated in the use of emerging robotic technology, robotic surgical treatment of gastric cancer patients will evolve in the years to come.
Since the robotic approach to gastric cancer treatment was initially reported in 2003, surgeons at experienced centers have adopted robotic radical gastrectomy as a minimally invasive alternative to laparoscopy. As with all gastric cancer operations, robotic radical gastrectomy must adhere to the oncological principles governing the treatment of gastric cancer requiring a multidisciplinary treatment strategy, complete preoperative evaluation, and intensive operative planning. RG and LND requires thorough knowledge of the vascular anatomy of the stomach and the accompanying nodal stations as dened by the Japanese Gastric Cancer Association (JGCA). e steps of the operative procedure are explained relative to the dissection of the LN stations in D2LND.

Indications
Indications for robotic radical gastrectomy are the same as for laparoscopic gastric cancer opera­tions. Currently, minimally invasive radical gastrectomy is recommended for early gastric cancer based on the Japanese gastric cancer treatment guidelines.18 In practice, the indications have been expanded to locally advanced gastric cancer according to surgeon’s experience and expertise.
Indications for RG with limited LND: pT1a, pT1b, pN0. Mucosal and submucosal tumors
-
that do not meet criteria for endoscopic resection or have failed treatment with endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection
Indications for RG requiring D2LND: pT1N1M0, pT2N0/N1M0, pT3N0/N1/N2M0
-
Expanded indication for RG requiring D2: pT4a
-
Relative contraindications to RG
Extensive lymphadenopathy
-
cT4a (serosa-positive tumors)
-
Absolute contraindications to robotic gastric cancer operations are the same as those of the lapa­roscopic approach.

Preoperative Evaluation
e preoperative evaluation of patients includes comprehensive work-up of the patient’s clinical status, pathological conrmation of the diagnosis, the localization of the tumor, and determina­tion of the extent of disease. For thorough preoperative surgical planning, the following tests are required:
Upper endoscopy with biopsy
-
Endoscopic marking of the proximal edge of tumor
-
Endoscopic ultrasound
-
CT scan of the abdomen
-
Patient Positioning, Port Placement, Robot Docking
Under general anesthesia, the patient is placed in the supine position with both arms tucked to the patient sides and the table in 15° reverse Trendelenburg position (. Fig. 37.1a). e abdomen is prepared from the nipple line to the suprapubic region as widely as possible. e operation is per­formed with ve ports (two 12 mm and three 8 mm) placed in a V-shaped position (. Fig. 37.1b). e port placements are adjusted to account for the patient’s body habitus; especially, the No.2 arm robot trocar on the patient’s right midclavicular line should be placed just caudal to the level of the duodenum. e robot surgical cart is brought directly over the head of the patient parallel to the operating table and the robot arms are docked (
Infraumbilical port (. Fig. 37.1b) is the camera arm.

Liver retraction
e liver is retracted to facilitate exposure of the hepatoduodenal ligament, the lesser curvature of the stomach, the suprapancreatic area, and the gastroesophageal junction. Whereas several self-sustaining liver retraction methods have been described, we prefer the gauze-suspension method.
Procedure of D2LN Dissection During Distal Subtotal Gastrectomy
Five essential steps and associated anatomical landmarks
1. Left side dissection e Cadiere forceps in the third robot arm is used to retract the stomach cephalad and toward the anterior abdominal wall to create a draping of the greater omentum. is lis the omentum away from the colon and exposes the gastrocolic ligament for safe division and retrieval of LN stations No. 4sb and 4d.
Using an energy device like the harmonic ultrasonic shears, enter the lesser sac in the area
-
of the midtransverse colon and the divide greater omentum toward the lower pole of the

spleen (. Fig. 37.2a). e dissection is facilitated with repositioning of the Cadiere forceps and the use of the Maryland bipolar grasper to gain greater exposure between the stomach and pancreas. Take down the adhesions between the posterior stomach and the anterior surface of the pancreas.
Carefully identify and isolate the le gastroepiploic vessels at its root during the proximal
-
dissection and ligate using clips or an energy device ( along greater curvature of the stomach from the proximal resection margin to the short gastric vessels because it contains part of the No.4sb nodal station.

. Fig.37.2
2. Right side dissection e dissection of the right side of the patient is performed by mobilizing the distal stomach and 2 cm of the proximal duodenum from the head of the pancreas. At this time care is taken to dis­sect the so tissues containing LN station No.6, which is bordered by right gastroepiploic vein (RGEV) and anterior superior pancreaticoduodenal vein (ASPDV). Exposure is gained in this area using the third arm to li the stomach in the area of the pylorus along the greater curvature away from the head of the pancreas.
Again using the Maryland bipolar grasper to dissect out the layers and harmonic ultrasonic
-
shears to divide with hemostasis, dissect the so tissues leading to the head of the pancreas in layers until the RGEV is identied. Isolate the RGEV, ligate, and divide it as it joins the ASPDV (
Continue clearing of the so tissue in the area to identify, ligate, and divide the right gastro-
-
epiploic artery (RGEA) as it branches from the gastroduodenal artery (GDA). e infra­pyloric artery may be encountered during this portion of the dissection and should also be ligated using clips or an energy device.
Next, release the attachments between the posterior duodenum and the pancreas along the
-
GDA until the common hepatic artery (CHA) is reached.
Insert a 4"× 4" gauze anterior to the head of pancreas to protect the GDA from injury during
-
the suprapancreatic dissection (

3. Suprapancreatic dissection At this time, LN dissection is performed in the hepatoduodenal region and the suprapancreatic area en bloc by meticulous dissection along the vessels using a combination of harmonic shears and the Maryland bipolar grasper. e Cadiere forceps is again used for retraction and exposure as needed. Retracting the stomach to the patient’s le and slightly toward the anterior abdominal wall, and identify the right gastric vessels on tension.
Dissect along the anterior surface of the proper hepatic artery (PHA) to identify and divide
-
the right gastric artery (RGA) at its origin and retrieve LN station No.5.
Clear the so tissues containing LN station No.12a by dissecting anteriorly and medially to
-
the PHA until the portal vein (PV) is exposed medially (
area can be facilitated by the bedside assistant who gently retracts the PHA to the patient’s
right for the CHA inferiorly.
Continue to clear the so tissues around CHA that contain LN station No.8a
-
(
. Fig. 37.4b).
Retract the stomach to expose the lesser curvature and note the le gastric vein as so
-
tissue is cleared from this area. Divide the le gastric vein as it drains into the portal vein.
(In some patients the le gastric vein can be found draining anteriorly into the splenic
vein.)

4. Dissection around the left gastric artery and skeletonization of the splenic vessels e retroperitoneal dissection of the so tissues along the le gastric artery (LGA), celiac trunk, and splenic vessels permits retrieval of LN station Nos.7 and 11p, respectively (
Improve exposure to access the root of the LGA by dividing the retroperitoneal attachments
-
to the lesser curvature of the stomach.
Expose and place clips on the root of the LGA before diving the LGA leaving two clips on
-
the patient side (
Continue the dissection with skeletonization of the CHA toward the celiac axis and retrieve
-
the so tissues containing LN station No.9 around the celiac artery (
Aer moving the stomach to the le upper quadrant, skeletonize the anterior and supe-
-
rior surfaces of the splenic artery. As the so tissue is lied away from the artery, superior dissection helps expose the anterior surface of the splenic vein. (Once the midpoint of the splenic vessels or the posterior gastric is reached, the dissection of LN station No.11p is complete.) (

5. Lesser curvature dissection and proximal resection
e lesser curvature of the stomach is released from the retroperitoneum up to the esophageal crus (
. Fig. 37.6).
To expose this area, have the assistant retract the mobile stomach to the patient’s le and
-
clear the so tissues along the right side of the intra-abdominal esophagus, the right cardia,
and the lesser curvature of the stomach.
Perform the truncal vagotomy at this time by dividing the anterior and posterior vagus
-
nerves. is completes the dissection of LN stations Nos.1 and 3.
Aer the stomach is fully mobilized, transect the stomach using a 60-mm blue load Endo-
-
linear stapler ensuring sucient proximal margin. (Additional load for the stapler may be
required.)
is completes the procedure of robotic D2LND for distal subtotal gastrectomy.

Reconstruction
e extent of gastric resection and the surgeon’s preference guide the appropriate selection of gastrointestinal reconstruction method. Depending on the size of the remnant stomach, we per­form a gastroduodenostomy, loop gastrojejunostomy, or Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy to restore gastrointestinal integrity aer robotic gastric resections. Most distal gastrectomies involve the removal of two thirds of the stomach and usually require a gastrojejunostomy.

Once the specimen is completely resected and margins of resection are satisfactory, the reconstruc­tion begins by inspecting the size of the remnant stomach and the mobility of the jejunal loop to be used for reconstruction.
Prepare the greater curvature of the stomach by clearing at least 6 cm of the serosal surface
-
proximally from the staple line. At times, the rst set of short gastric artery may need to be ligated and divided. If so, the gastric remnant may be too small for a loop gastrojejunostomy
Bring up a loop of jejunum 15 to 20 cm from the ligament of Treitz with the proximal
-
jejunal end aligned with the proximal remnant stomach greater curvature ( loop can be passed either antecolically or retrocolically through the transverse mesocolon.
Create a gastrotomy and jejunotomy to accommodate the insertion of the Endo-linear sta-
-
pler load to enter through the le-sided assist port in the proximal to distal bowel orienta­tion (
. Fig. 37.7b).
Close the common enterotomy with the stapler coming in from the right side of the patient.
-
In order to perform this part of the procedure, the No.2 arm of the robot needs to be undocked and the 8-mm robot port switched out for a 12-mm trocar, which will accommo­date the Endo-linear stapler (
Alternative option is to suture closed the common enterotomy using robotic assistance.

Switch out the harmonic ultrasonic shears and the Maryland bipolar with needle drivers. Use the third arm to position the common enterotomy and close the enterotomy using run­ning 2-0Vicryl and 3-0silk sutures.

Roux-en-Y Gastrojejunostomy
To limit bile esophagitis and gastritis aer vagotomy and distal gastrectomy, some surgeons prefer Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy as the method of choice for reconstruction.
Transect the jejunum 15 to 20 cm from the ligament of Trietz using the Endo-linear stapler
-
and bring up the distal jejunum either antecolically or retrocolically and position the an­timesenteric side of the jejunum side by side with the greater curvature of the stomach with the stapled end of the jejunum proximally placed.
Create a gastrotomy in the proximal edge of the cleared greater curvature and an enter-
-
otomy on the antimesenteric edge of the jejunum near the staple line.
Carefully pass the Endo-linear stapler through the enterotomies, approximate the two
-
edges, and re the stapler. Close the common enterotomy in two layers using robotic needle holders.
Measure 50 to 60 cm from the gastrojejunal anastomosis and line up the biliary jejunal limb
-
and the enteric limb using the robotic grasper and Maryland bipolar grasper. Make enter­ostomies and create a stapled side-to-side anastomosis using the assist port to introduce the stapler. Close the common enterotomy with two-layer running sutures.
Verify the orientation of the reconstructed small bowel.
