Introduction: With an aging population, the proportion of patients aged ≥80 years requiring cervical surgery is increasing. Surgeons are concerned with the high incidence of complications in this population, because "age" itself has been reported as a strong risk factor for complications. However, it is still unknown which factors represent higher risk among these elderly patients. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the risk factors related to surgical complications specific to elderly patients by analyzing the registry data of patients aged ≥80 years who underwent cervical surgery.Methods: We retrospectively studied multicenter collected registry data using multivariate analysis. Sixty-six patients aged ≥80 years who underwent cervical surgery and were followed up for more than one year were included in this study. Preoperative patient demographic data, including comorbidities and postoperative complications, were collected from multicenter registry data. Complications were considered as major if they required invasive intervention, caused prolonged morbidity, or resulted in prolongation of hospital stay. Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors for complications. A p-value of <0.05 was considered as statistically significant.Results: The total number of patients with complications was 21 (31.8%), with seven major (10.6%) and 14 minor (21.2%) complications. Multivariate logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for age, revealed two significant risk factors: preoperative cerebrovascular disorders (OR, 6.337; p=0.043) for overall complications and cancer history (OR, 8.168; p=0.021) for major complications. Age, presence of diabetes mellitus, and diagnosis were not significant predictive factors for complications in this study.Conclusions: Preoperative cerebrovascular disorders and cancer history were risk factors for complications after cervical surgery in patients over 80 years old. Surgeons should pay attention to these specific risk factors before performing cervical surgery in elderly patients.

Markevitchielinus anchoratus Titar, 1975 is reported based on an adult female from the floor of the buccal cavity of a sea raven Hemitripterus villosus (Pallas, 1814) caught in Onagawa Bay, an inlet of the Northwestern Pacific Ocean, Miyagi Prefecture, northern Japan. The female specimen is briefly described. The female inserted its head with a pair of large, lateral processes and the anterior part of an elongate neck into the tissues of the buccal cavity floor. The present collection of M. anchoratus represents the third occurrence record of the species and extends its distributional range from Kunashiri and Shikotan islands, east of Hokkaido, to Onagawa Bay off Honshu, the largest main island of Japan. The species is specific to the sea raven and may be a subarctic species.

The ABC method combined with Helicobacter pylori antibody and serum pepsinogen is a useful predictive method for stomach cancer. Kyoto classification is a new grading system for endoscopic gastritis. However, the consistency of the Kyoto score with the ABC method remains unclear. The Kyoto classification score, which ranges from 0 to 8, is based on the following findings: atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, diffuse redness, nodularity, and enlarged folds. Furthermore, we defined a simplified Kyoto classification score as the sum of scores of just atrophy and intestinal metaplasia. The association between the Kyoto classification score and the ABC method was analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis and Steel-Dwass tests. A total of 307 subjects were enrolled. Kyoto classification scores were similar in groups B, C, and D, while scores in group A were significantly lower than those of the other groups. The simplified Kyoto classification score showed the same stepwise increase as the classification of the ABC method. In conclusion, unlike the Kyoto classification score, the simplified Kyoto score showed the same significant stepwise increase as the classification of the ABC method.

In 2016, the Rome criteria were updated as Rome IV, and only minor changes were introduced for functional dyspepsia (FD). The major symptoms of FD now include not only postprandial fullness, but also epigastric pain and burning, and early satiation at above the “bothersome” level. Investigations into the effect of meal ingestion on symptom generation have indicated that not only postprandial fullness and early satiety but also epigastric pain and burning sensation and nausea (not vomiting) may increase after meals. Helicobacter pylori infection is considered to be the cause of dyspepsia if successful eradication leads to sustained resolution of symptoms for more than 6 months, and such a condition has been termed H. pylori-associated dyspepsia. Prompt esophagogastroduodenoscopy and H. pylori “test and treat” may be beneficial, especially in regions with a high prevalence of gastric cancer, such as east Asia. In terms of treatment, acotiamide, tandospirone, and rikkunshito are newly listed in Rome IV as treatment options for FD. Clinical studies in the field of FD should be strictly based on the Rome IV criteria until the next Rome V is published in 2026.

The risk of carcinogenesis increases after 20 years old in patients with Fanconi anemia (FA). We herein report three rare cases of FA combined with esophageal cancer in women; all patients were diagnosed with FA in early childhood. Patients 1 and 2 were diagnosed with advanced and superficial esophageal cancer, respectively, at 21 and 30 years old, respectively. Patient 3 was diagnosed with superficial esophageal cancer, underwent curative surgery at 26 years old, and survived for over 5 years without recurrence. Therefore, establishing a protocol for the early detection of esophageal cancer in FA patients over 20 years old is important.

Gastric cancers are sometimes diagnosed in patients who have successfully undergone Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication. We analyzed the clinicopathological features of gastric cancers detected after eradication to clarify their characteristics. We reviewed 31 patients with 34 cases of gastric cancer detected after successful H. pylori eradication. Clinicopathological characteristics analyzed included interval since eradication, interval since last endoscopy, tumor size, and depth of invasion. Patients were classified into two groups: early detection (<1 year since eradication) and delayed detection (≥1 year since eradication). The interval since last endoscopy was significantly shorter in the early detection group than in the delayed detection group. However, gastric cancers were significantly larger and more invasive in the early detection group than in the delayed detection group. In conclusion, diligent endoscopy is necessary during the first year after successful H. pylori eradication.
