Background: Gastric cancer is the most prevalent tumor in Chinese men, and surgery is currently the most important treatment. Billroth II and Roux-en-Y are the anastomosis methods used for reconstruction after gastrectomy. Jejunal intussusception is a rare complication after gastric surgery. Main Body: Intussusception after gastric surgery occurs mostly at the gastrojejunostomy site for Billroth II reconstruction, and the Y-anastomosis site for Roux-en-Y reconstruction. Many studies have reported that postoperative intussusception appears at the anastomosis after bariatric surgery, while a few have reported intussusception at the anastomosis and its distal end after radical gastrectomy. Conclusion: A review was carried out to analyze intussusception after radical gastrectomy with roux-en-y anastomosis during the current situation. And the relevant mechanisms, diagnosis, treatment methods, etc. are described, hoping to provide better guidance for clinicians

INTRODUCTION: Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have been suggested to have an important prognostic role in gastrointestinal tumors. We developed a preoperative CTC-based nomogram to predict the prognosis of patients with resectable gastric cancer after surgery and established a risk stratification system based on the nomogram. METHODS: From January 2012 to June 2017, we screened 258 patients with gastric cancer treated with surgery from one center as the training cohort and 133 patients with gastric cancer treated with surgery from another as the validation cohort, screened prognostic factors for the training cohort using univariate and multivariate Cox risk proportional models, created predictive overall survival (OS) and a recurrence-free survival (RFS) nomogram, and plotted the receiver operating characteristic curve and calibration curve for this nomogram in the training and validation cohorts. Risk score stratification was performed according to the nomogram, and OS curves were plotted for the low, medium, and high-risk groups using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS: The CTC positivity rate was 78.5% in all patients. CTC, TNM stage, and Ki-67 were the prognostic factors affecting OS and RFS after gastric cancer surgery. The nomogram consisted of these 3 variables. In the training group, the area under the curve of the nomogram for OS at 1, 3, and 5 years was 0.918, 0.829, and 0.813, respectively, and the area under the curve for RFS was 0.900, 0884, and 0.839, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in OS among the low, medium, and high-risk groups according to the risk stratification system constructed from nomogram scores ( P < 0.001). DISCUSSION: Two nomograms based on preoperative CTC were established to predict OS and RFS after resectable gastric cancer. The 2 nomograms had good discrimination and calibration and significant stratification ability of the risk stratification system established according to them.
