“…A Korean publication of 60 patients by Sang et al [20] stated that the excess weight loss at 1 year was 83.3±28.3% with a decrease of BMI being 9.2±3.7 kg m −2 and good resolution of their comorbidities. Similar results were noted in an Indian series by Chowbey et al [21]. Our results were reflected in a similar light in other series in Europe [22,23] and North America [24] In our own series, we have shown that this procedure is safe and feasible in the short term, not only as a primary procedure, but as a revision procedure for the complications of LAGB [25].…”

Sleeve gastrectomy was conceived in 1988 both as a first step to the duodenal switch procedure and as an extension of anti-reflux surgery where patients lost significant weight. It is now a stand-alone laparoscopic bariatric procedure worldwide with two international consensus summits identifying it as a safe and feasible restrictive and appetite-suppressing procedure. In our centre, it is a key component in the surgical armamentarium and used as a first-line and revisional procedure for morbid obesity. The procedure is performed using standard five port technique. One year results are reviewed for its feasibility in our Asian patients. Twenty of 48 laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomies have a 1-year follow-up with four of them a revisional procedure for bands with complications. There were 11 males and 9 females (average age 43.6) and a representation of all four major ethnic groups. Average weight and BMI improved from 116.3 to 90.2 kg and 42.5 to 33.1 kg m(-2) after 1 year, respectively. Average weight loss was 26.1 kg and excess weight loss (in percent) was 49.6%. There was an improvement in diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnoea and asthma and three complications including two leaks and a gastro-oesophageal spasm/stricture. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is safe and feasible as first-line surgery for morbid obesity and revisional procedures for band-related complications in the short term. Further studies are required to elucidate the exact mechanisms of weight loss in the sleeve gastrectomy to answer the appropriateness of the variations in the technique and long-term weight loss and morbidity.

“…Chowbey et al [26] reported that LSG produces significant weight loss in addition to a beneficial impact on comorbidities. In their study, they showed 75% resolution in diabetes, 85.7% resolution in hypertension, and 87.5% resolution in dyslipidemia at 2 years of follow-up.…”

“…Similar results were found in a study conducted by Chowbey et al who showed resolution of dyslipidaemia in 34% of the patients with significant decrease in mean cholesterol and LDL levels 6 months after LSG. [16] CONCLUSION Laparoscopic bariatric surgery is a good weight loss technique for obese and super obese patients. It produces sustainable weight loss with lesser complications both intraoperatively and postoperatively with shorter hospital stay and improvement in insulin resistance.…”

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy: An Indian Experience—Surgical Technique and Early Results

Abstract: Although long-term results are necessary to determine the benefits of the procedure, early results indicate that LSG may be a safe and feasible option for treating the morbidly obese patients.
