A Prospective Multicenter Study of 163 Sleeve Gastrectomies: Results at 1 and 2 Years

Abstract: The sleeve gastrectomy seems to be a safe and effective restrictive bariatric procedure to treat morbid obesity in selected patients. LSG may be proposed for volume-eater patients or to prepare superobese patients for laparoscopic gastric bypass or laparoscopic duodenal switch. However, weight regained, quality of life, and evolution ofmorbidities due to obesity need to be evaluated in a long-term follow up.

“…Postoperative complications of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy are relatively rare and vary from 0 % to 29 % (mean 11 %) with 0.3 % mortality (1,7,8,9). Perioperative minor complications have an overall incidence of 11 % and major surgical complications 5% in large series (10).…”

“…The incidence of leak after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy has been reported to be 0 to 8% for primary surgery (8,11,12,13) and 16-24 % in reintervention procedures (12). Most of these leaks are located near the gastroesophageal junction, in the proximal third of the stomach (14).…”
