上部消化管外科

概要

患者のみなさんへ

上部消化管外科は食物が通過する食道、胃、十二指腸に発生する疾患、また、あらゆる腹部ヘルニア、機能障害（正中弓状靭帯圧迫症候群、逆流性食道炎、高度肥満症、手掌多汗症）を専門的に扱う診療科です。がんに対する手術を中心に診療を行っています。一方、一般施設では対応が難しい高度進行がんや合併症を持つ患者さんの治療にも積極的に取り組んでおり、高度進行食道がんに対する拡大手術や機能温存（声を残す）手術においては、日本におけるオピニオンリーダーとして全国から紹介をいただいております。また、手術を受けた後の生活の事も踏まえ、がんの根治と安全性やQOL維持のバランスを考慮した治療を行っています。その際、患者さんやご家族の気持ちを十分に聞きながら、それぞれの患者さんにとって一番良い治療を目指します。

当科では、以下のような疾患を扱っています。

消化管悪性腫瘍（食道がん、胃がん、GIST、神経内分泌腫瘍など）、下血、吐血、腹痛、腹部腫瘤、ヘルニア、肥満、糖尿病、胃食道逆流症(GERD)、逆流性食道炎、急性腹症

特色・強み

胃がんや食道がんに対する内視鏡手術やロボット支援下手術を積極的に導入し、がんの根治と機能温存を低侵襲で両立させた治療を提供しています。また、他施設では対応できない高度進行がんに対する手術も数多く手掛けております。関係各科と協同して化学療法・放射線治療などの集学的治療や新薬の治験も多数行っています。

食道がん・胃がんも他のがんと同様に高齢者が増加し、老々介護や一人暮らし世帯が増えています。がん患者さんがより元気に過ごしていただくために、入院中のみならず外来での継続的な栄養指導やリハビリ、患者会での患者間交流や地域との連携を積極的に行っています。

肥満や糖尿病などの代謝疾患に対する減量・代謝改善手術も実施しており、日本肥満症治療学会の施設認定も受けています。また、糖尿病に対する腹腔鏡下スリーブバイパス術も受けていただくことが可能です。
