Roux-en-Y Versus Billroth II Reconstruction After Subtotal Gastrectomy in Gastric Cancer Comorbid With Type II Diabetes

February 6, 2012 updated by: feng Zheng

A Prospective Randomised Study Comparing Billroth II With Roux-en-Y Reconstruction After Radical Distal Subtotal Gastrectomy for Gastric Cancer Comorbid With Type 2 Diabetes

Gastric bypass improves glycemic levels in type 2 diabetes. However, the efficacy may be varied by different gastric-small intestine reconstruction used in the procedure. There are reports that Roux en Y reconstruction may give a better result. The purpose of this study is to compare Roux en Y and Billroth II reconstruction in patients with gastric cancer comorbid with type 2 diabetes.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Type 2 diabetes may cause severe complications such as nephropathy and retinopathy. Additionally, it is associated with increased risk for cardiovascular events and diseases. Surgical intervention with gastric bypass has been shown to attenuate glycemic levels in obese patient comorbid with type 2 diabetes. However, since gastric bypass is not a standard procedure, surgical protocol including stomach and small intestine reconstruction may be varied. The investigators and others have found that stomach and small intestine reconstruction may affect the efficacy of diabetic treatment. In this study, the investigators will compare the efficacy of Billroth II and Roux en Y reconstruction on glycemic control in stomach cancer patients with type 2 diabetes. Both Billroth II and Roux en Y are used in stomach-small intestine reconstruction after subtotal gastrectomy. No differences in postoperative outcomes and quality of life have been reported in Billroth II and Roux en Y reconstruction.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Billroth II
After stomach resection, the remnant stomach is connected to the jejunum.
Billroth II or Roux en Y reconstruction will be performed after gastric resection in stomach patients co-morbid with type 2 diabetes
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Roux en Y
After stomach resection, the remnant stomach is connected to the distal jejunum while duodenum and the proximal jejunum is reconnected to jejunum.
Billroth II or Roux en Y reconstruction will be performed after gastric resection in stomach patients co-morbid with type 2 diabetes
