ABSTRACT
Background: The sleeve gastrectomy is the most recent procedure in bariatric surgery. It was first described as the first stage of the biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch in super obese and/or high risk patients. The purpose of this study is to determine the role that the sleeve gastrectomy plays as a sole procedure in the obese patient.
Methods: From December 2005 to date, we included 100 patients with sleeve gastrectomy that had completed one year of follow-up. Inclusion criteria: body mass index ›32 with or without comorbidities, 16–65 years of age and patients with failed gastric banding.
Results: The mean excess weight loss was 65.2% with a noticeable improvement of comorbidities. Complications: leaks 4% and 2% mortality. In revision surgery, the excess weight loss was ›50%.
Conclusions: The sleeve gastrectomy has a low morbid-mortality rate; therefore, it is a safe procedure which we recommend as an alternative for obese patients. Longer follow-up and further studies are needed in order to have a better understanding of its role in obesity surgery.
