BACKGROUND The indications for sleeve gastrectomy in the surgical treatment of morbid obesity have increased worldwide. Despite this, several aspects related to results at medium and long term remain in constant research. AIM To present the experience of sleeve gastrectomy in a center of excellence in bariatric surgery by analyzing clinical outcomes, complications and follow-up in the medium ...

Bariatric surgery has emerged as the most effective means of achieving weight loss. Obesity is a quickly expanding field. Laparoscopic vertical sleeve gastrectomy great option for patients because it simple, exceedingly safe, fairly defined postoperative complication profile, and more complex bariatric options. Specific consideration patients’ comorbidities, assessment surgeon’s skill, knowledg...

AIMS The comparative efficacy of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy on Type 2 diabetes remission and the role of weight loss are unclear. The DiaRem diabetes remission prediction score uses HbA1c , age and diabetes medications but not diabetes duration. The aim of this study was to compare the DiaRem with the DiaBetter score that includes diabetes duration, upon combined (co...

Introduction. Sleeve gastrectomy has become more and more popular due to a seemingly easy method of performance, good outcomes with regard to body mass reduction and elimination of obesity-related diseases and an acceptable number of complications. The paper presents outcomes of surgical treatment of patients with morbid obesity using laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, based on authors’ own mater...

OBJECTIVE To compare the effect of sleeve gastrectomy vs medical therapy on type 2 diabetes mellitus and other obesity-related comorbidities (obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, hypertension, and dyslipidemia) in prospectively enrolled and matched obese patients with type 2 diabetes. DESIGN A prospective cohort study. Morbidly obese patients with type 2 diabetes who either underwent sleeve gast...

BACKGROUND No verdict has been reached on single-stage removal of gastric banding with sleeve gastrectomy. OBJECTIVES To report 5-year outcomes of 1-stage gastric band removal and sleeve gastrectomy (Conversion-LSG) compared with primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (Prim-LSG). SETTING Large single-surgeon prospective database. METHODS Two patient groups were included: Conversion-LSG a...

INTRODUCTION Among the surgical procedures for treatment of morbid obesity, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has known widespread diffusion in the last years, although it is not free from significant morbidity rates. Aim of this work is to evaluate the incidence of Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection on the postoperative outcome of patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. METHODS Be...

Single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) and natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (NOTES) have been developed to reduce the invasiveness of laparoscopic surgery. SILS has been frequently applied in various clinical settings, such as cholecystectomy, colectomy, and sleeve gastrectomy. So far, there have been four reports on single incision laparoscopic distal gastrectomy and one re...

INTRODUCTION To reduce incidence and severity of postsurgical pain and minimize the effect of its clinical and economic correlates, multimodal therapy for surgical patients is recommended. In this report, we discuss the use of liposome bupivacaine, a novel multivesicular formulation of bupivacaine indicated for single-dose infiltration into the surgical site to produce postsurgical analgesia, a...
