Esophagogastric junction morphology assessment by high resolution manometry in obese patients candidate to bariatric surgery

Abstract: Obese subjects candidate to bariatric surgery have a high risk of disruption of EGJ morphology. In particular, obese patients with hiatal hernia often refer pre-operative presence of GERD symptoms. Testing obese patients with HRM before undergoing bariatric surgery, especially for restrictive procedures, can be useful for assessing presence of hiatal hernia.

“…These results were also confirmed by two large case series from Italy that compared antireflux surgical outcome in patients younger or older than 65 years[19,20]. Overweight and obesity are associated with increased intraabdominal pressure, presence of hiatal hernia, increased frequency of transient sphincter relaxation , diminished lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure, and and impaired gastric emptying, thus increasing esophageal acid exposure time (AET) and total number of reflux (TNR), which have a clear role in GERD and promoting symptoms[21,22]. Recently, Luketina et al[23] retrospectively evaluated antireflux surgical outcomes in obese patients compared to normal weight GERD patients.…”

“…In a subsequent study, Tolone et al reviewed data on 138 obese subjects with or without symptoms. 11 Compared to nonobese patients, obese patients demonstrated more frequent hiatal hernia, lower LES resting pressure, and lower distal contractile integral values. Furthermore, they had increased incidence of ineffective esophageal motility (weak and failed) and a low rate of hypercontractile esophagus and premature contractions.…”

“…En realidad, la manometría de alta resolución puede proporcionar información precisa sobre la morfología del EEI después de la manga y demostrar que la separación creciente entre EEI y crura diafragmática puede causar un aumento gradual y significativo en el reflujo [22][23][24][25] .…”
