简要总结
This study is being done to develop a new method that can rapidly stage patients with gastric and pancreas cancer. Staging means finding out what is the extent of the cancer in a patient's body.
Currently before patients have the surgery to remove their cancer, a surgical exam is done in the operating room to see if their cancer has spread. A thin tube-like instrument with lens and a light is placed into the abdomen. This is done by making small cuts into the body. This exam is called a diagnostic laparoscopy. If cancer spread is not seen, fluid is put into the abdomen and then taken out. This is called "lavage" or washing. The fluid is then looked at in a laboratory. If the fluid contains cancer cells surgery is often delayed.
The investigators are testing a new method to put the fluid into the abdomen. It is called percutaneous lavage. Percutaneous means "through the skin". A needle is put through the skin into the abdomen. Tubing is then placed over the needle so that fluid can be put into the abdomen and then taken out. The fluid is then looked at in a laboratory. The investigators want to see if the two methods are equal because if they are equal, in the future, patients may be able to have this procedure done outside of the operating room.

研究组 & 干预措施
Patients who require diagnostic laparoscopy
Diagnostic peritoneal lavage will be performed at the time of laparoscopy utilizing a Veress needle/Seldinger technique to insert a peritoneal dialysis catheter. This is not a new technique. The Veress needle will be inserted in the abdominal wall, at a site to be left up to the individual surgeon.
干预措施: Diagnostic peritoneal lavage (Procedure)
结局指标
主要结局
Number of Study Participants With Adequate Percutaneous Lavage Specimen Collection
时间窗: 2 years
Cytology will be performed to compare percutaneous and laparoscopic lavage results in order to determine if percutaneous lavage specimen collection is concordant with laparoscopic lavage results
次要结局
- Safety of Peritoneal Lavage in Place of Laparoscopic Lavage.(2 years)
