Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery

November 8,2023 Update

Introduction

In the Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, the motto is "sufficient explanation for the patients and treatment by specialists with no complications," and we are focusing on surgical treatment of malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and benign diseases. A characteristic of our department is to practice treatments in a wide range of areas while maintaining a high level of expertise.

[Surgical treatment/multidisciplinary medical treatment of gastrointestinal cancers]

For esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer, we actively introduce minimally invasive treatments such as endoscopic treatments (in conjunction with the Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology) and laparoscopic surgery in response to the progression, and we strive to improve the quality of life of our patients. When it is not possible to treat with routine surgery, we aim for cures in combination with extended surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy (in cooperation with the Department of Radiation Oncology). In terms of function preservation, we actively aim to preserve digestive tract function after gastric cancer resections and preserve the anus in surgery for lower rectal cancers. For recurrent lesions of gastric cancer and colorectal cancer, we aim to reduce the lesions by using combinations that include effective chemotherapy and aim to heal by actively performing liver metastasis resections.

[Surgical treatment for benign diseases]

We also provide surgical treatment for relatively infrequent diseases such as esophageal achalasia, esophageal hiatus hernia, and inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease), etc. There are also numerous surgeries in the general surgical areas such as inguinal hernia, acute appendicitis, benign anal diseases (hemorrhoids, anal fistulas, anal fissures, anal prolapse), etc.

[Cancer genetic medicine and hereditary colorectal cancer]

Chemotherapy is central to the treatment of malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract that cannot be cured by endoscopic or surgical treatment. A number of genes in the tumor are examined to select the optimal treatment (such as the choice of chemotherapy), and we will drive the so-called cancer genome medicine. Genetic diagnosis, surgical treatment, and long-term follow-up of hereditary colorectal cancer (such as familial colorectal adenomas and Lynch syndrome) have been performed aggressively, and many patients from all over the country have been visiting us.

Patient care at our department

[Outpatient care]

Initial consultation:
For the initial consultation, please consult with a stuff in charge of surgery outpatients on the first floor in mornings from Monday to Friday where possible.
The reception desk hours are from 8:00am to 11:00am. The examination start time is 9:00am. It is preferable to bring a letter of referral, but it is fine if you don't have one. It is possible to receive a checkup on the day of the doctor's follow-up examination as a new patient.
If you are a new patient and need to be hospitalized, the outpatient staff may explain the flow for hospitalization, or may introduce you to the admission and discharge support office if necessary.
In addition, transferring to a ward will be performed by the outpatient medical director. As a result of the entire examination at the clinic, the treatment policy, and in particular the operative type of surgery may be different from the content described in the outpatient department, but in that case, we will explain in detail after admission.
Return visits:
Each organ specialist will be responsible for the post-operative follow-up and chemotherapy. Chemotherapy is available at the outpatient chemotherapy center.

[Unique outpatient]

At unique specialist outpatient, we provide appropriate medical information (such as selection of treatment methods) and genetic diagnosis for hereditary colorectal cancers such as familial colorectal adenomas (colorectal polyposis) and Lynch syndrome. You must be counseled by a certified genetic counselor when you undergo a genetic diagnosis. Where possible, please bring a letter of referral.

[Inpatient care]

The medical clinic is divided into three to four teams, practicing the most important team medicine in the surgical practice. The team rounds will be done every morning from 8:30am. The explanation before treatment and obtaining the consent form for treatment is usually done after hospitalization. The daily treatment is done by a surgical team, but we have all of the staff of the treatment departments participate in a conference (twice a week) and the general manager does rounds (once a week). Through these procedures, we examine the conditions of the hospitalized patients, confirm the treatment policy, and examine any changes. The staff of the medical department will work together to provide the best treatment for the patients. We are striving every day.

To the Medical Institutions

In the Department of Digestive Tract and General Surgery, we treat with a focus on (1) Surgical treatment for malignant tumors occurring in the gastrointestinal tract, such as esophageal, gastric, duodenal, small intestine, large intestine, anus, etc., (2) A multidisciplinary treatment, including chemotherapy and chemical radiation therapy for advanced esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer, (3) Surgical treatment for abdominal emergency diseases such as ileus, gastrointestinal perforation, colon diverticulitis, acute appendicitis, etc., (4) Surgical treatment of peritoneal disease (such as inguinal hernia, femoral hernia, closed hole hernia, etc.). We are always aiming to practice high quality medical care while working closely with the doctors at the medical institutions to which we have referred.

The number of annual surgeries for gastrointestinal malignancies in recent years consists of 25 to 30 cases of esophageal cancer. 100 to 120 gastric cancers and 180 to 200 colorectal cancers, and the proportion of arthroscopic surgery is increasing every year. Even with advanced and re-carcinogenesis, there is a significant increase in opportunities for resection due to advances in chemotherapy, and we are actively resecting with a focus on the liver metastasis of gastric and colorectal cancer, not only to improve the survival rate, but also to practice a multidisciplinary treatment aimed at healing and not just improving the survival rate. In order to actively participate in regional cooperation, we are committed to the surgery and dissemination of local cooperation paths for gastric cancer and colorectal cancer, so we may ask you to have a mutual physician's relationship with the patients who you have referred to us for five years after the surgery.

The number of patients with hereditary carcinoma of the colon and rectum (digestive tract polyposis and Lynch syndrome) is extremely large and they are referred from all over the country. Minimally invasive treatment and genetic diagnosis of colorectal polyposis and duodenal polyposis is possible.

We have built a system to respond promptly and accurately, not just to elective surgery but also to acute abdominal diseases which are mainly abdominal emergency diseases.
Although the treatment policy is standardized for each disease under the responsibility of the general manager of the medical care policy, the individual support is done in detail based on the risk assessment and we strive to reduce the complications. Our staff is prepared with all of our body and soul to provide the best medical care.
