The sensitivity, specificity, Youden’s index, and predictive values were estimated using a 2 × 2 cross-tabulation. <strong>Results:</strong> The study involved assessing the CT scans of 148 patients;80 patients (44 men and 36 women, mean age: 34 years, mean body mass index {BMI}: 46 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) had positive findings of gastric leaks after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, such as contrast leak, gas leak, and peri-gastric collection (either singly or in combination). The CT findings were negative for gastric leaks in 68 patients (38 men and 30 women, mean age: 33 years, mean BMI: 45 kg/m<sup>2</sup>). Pleural effusion manifested as a fluid density in the dependent portion of pleural cavity on CT. The sensitivity of left pleural effusion to predict gastric leaks after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was 73.8%, and the specificity was 91.2%. The positive and negative predictive values were 90.8% and 74.7%, respectively, and the Youden’s index was 64.9%. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Left pleural effusion exhibits good diagnostic accuracy for gastric leaks after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Notably, the specificity (91.2%) was very high.展开更多

METHODSForty patients undergoing LRYGB, who completed their two year follow-up were matched with 40 patients undergoing LSG for age, gender, body mass index and presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Data of these patients was retrospectively reviewed to compare the outcome in terms of weight loss and improvement in comorbidities, i.e., T2DM, hypertension (HTN), obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), hypothyroidism and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). RESULTSPercentage excess weight loss (EWL%) was similar in LRYGB and LSG groups at one year follow-up (70.5% vs 66.5%, P = 0.36) while it was significantly greater for LRYGB group after two years as compared to LSG group (76.5% vs 67.9%, P = 0.04). The complication rate after LRYGB and LSG was similar (10% vs 7.5%, P = 0.99). The median duration of T2DM and mean number of oral hypoglycemic agents were higher in LRYGB group than LSG group (7 years vs 5 years and 2.2 vs 1.8 respectively, P < 0.05). Both LRYGB and LSG had significant but similar improvement in T2DM, HTN, OSAS and hypothyroidism. However, GERD resolved in all patients undergoing LRYGB while it resolved in only 50% cases with LSG. Eight point three percent patients developed new-onset GERD after LSG. CONCLUSIONLRYGB has better outcomes in terms of weight loss two years after surgery as compared to LSG. The impact of LRYGB and LSG on T2DM, HTN, OSAS and hypothyroidism is similar. However, LRYGB has significant resolution of GERD as compared to LSG.展开更多

文摘To compare the impact of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) on weight loss and obesity related comorbidities over two year follow-up via case control study design. METHODSForty patients undergoing LRYGB, who completed their two year follow-up were matched with 40 patients undergoing LSG for age, gender, body mass index and presence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Data of these patients was retrospectively reviewed to compare the outcome in terms of weight loss and improvement in comorbidities, i.e., T2DM, hypertension (HTN), obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), hypothyroidism and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). RESULTSPercentage excess weight loss (EWL%) was similar in LRYGB and LSG groups at one year follow-up (70.5% vs 66.5%, P = 0.36) while it was significantly greater for LRYGB group after two years as compared to LSG group (76.5% vs 67.9%, P = 0.04). The complication rate after LRYGB and LSG was similar (10% vs 7.5%, P = 0.99). The median duration of T2DM and mean number of oral hypoglycemic agents were higher in LRYGB group than LSG group (7 years vs 5 years and 2.2 vs 1.8 respectively, P < 0.05). Both LRYGB and LSG had significant but similar improvement in T2DM, HTN, OSAS and hypothyroidism. However, GERD resolved in all patients undergoing LRYGB while it resolved in only 50% cases with LSG. Eight point three percent patients developed new-onset GERD after LSG. CONCLUSIONLRYGB has better outcomes in terms of weight loss two years after surgery as compared to LSG. The impact of LRYGB and LSG on T2DM, HTN, OSAS and hypothyroidism is similar. However, LRYGB has significant resolution of GERD as compared to LSG.

文摘Objective:Bariatric surgery has been shown to be an effective method of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea(OSA)with long-term benefits,however,the mechanisms of action and the optimum operative procedure remains unclear.The aim of this systemic review was to compare the efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG)and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass(RYGB)in resolving OSA.Methods:A comprehensive search of MEDLINE,Pubmed,Embase,and OVID was performed.Studies that reported OSA resolution in obese patients with BMI>30 kg/m2 were included in the study.RCTs,comparative prospective and matched cohort studies comparing RYGB with LSG were considered for this study.Results:Five studies(309 participants)were included:4 cohort studies and 1 RCT;all with low risk of bias.At 12 months follow-up,there was a trend towards improved resolution of OSA with LSG(OR 0.47,95%CI[0.20 to 1.06];p=0.07)when compared to RYGB.In contrast,there was a trend to poorer weight loss in the LSG group(SMD 3.83,95%CI[-1.82 to 9.48];p=0.18).Similarly,at 36 months follow-up,there was a trend towards better resolution of OSA with LSG(OR 0.52,95%CI[0.16 to 1.71];p=0.28)and a significantly poorer weight loss in LSG when compared to RYGB(SMD 8.25,95%CI[2.91 to 13.58];p=0.002).Conclusion:Despite poorer weight loss following LSG,there is a trend towards increased resolution of sleep apnea post-LSG.These findings suggest the possibility of weight loss independent factors causing OSA resolution,which should be further investigated.Registration:PROSPERO:CRD42018090367.
文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG)is the most common bariatric surgical procedure.LSG is a restrictive procedure and in this operation stomach volume is greatly reduced.When the details of the procedure are examined,it is seen that there are many different methods surgery.AIM To analyze approaches of surgeons performing LSG.METHODS A questionnaire consist of 44 questions was sent by e-mail to the surgeons performing bariatric surgery.Approaches of surgery about preoperative period,surgical techniques and postoperative period was questioned.RESULTS Different approaches about antibiotic prophylaxis,stapler line reinforcement utilization,application of intraoperative and postoperative leakage test,approach to the crus and hiatal hernia repair were detected.It was observed that a few partipicipants applied contrary to the guidelines of antibiotic prophlaxis and thromboembolism prophylaxis.Approaches about other subjects were generally similar.CONCLUSION In this study,approaches about LSG that most common bariatric surgical procedure in our country was learned.According to these results,knowing the approaches in our country will be beneficial in terms of determining the training programs in bariatric surgery,improving surgical results and reducing the complications.
文摘Metabolic and bariatric surgery(MBS)is an effective treatment for patients with morbid obesity and its comorbidities.However,many patients experience weight regain(WR)after achieving their nadir weight.Establishing the definition of WR is challenging as postoperative WR has various definitions.Risk factors for WR after MBS include anatomical,racial,hormonal,metabolic,behavioral,and psychological factors,and evaluating such factors preoperatively is necessary.Long-term regular follow-up and timely treatment by a multidisciplinary team are important because WR after surgery is multi-factorial.Although lifestyle interventions that focus on appropriate dietary education,physical activity education or interventions,and behavioral psychological interventions are suggested,more well-designed studies are needed because studies evaluating intervention methods and the effectiveness of WR prevention are lacking.Antiobesity drugs can be used to prevent and manage patients with WR after MBS;however,more research is needed to determine the timing,duration,and type of anti-obesity drugs used to prevent WR.
