AbstractGastric volvulus is a rare entity. Its diagnosis remains tricky and challenging. In recent years, the incidence of gastric volvulus has shown a rise in postbariatric surgery patient. Several cases were reported of gastric remnant volvulus post-laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and laparoscopic gastric bypass. Laparoscopic gastric greater curvature plication is a new and experimental restrictive technique for weight loss. Several of its complications were reported in the literature but never was a case of volvulus postgastric plication reported, as far as we know. We present this rare case with an atypical presentation and go through similar cases in the literature.

Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty (ESG) is a restrictive endoscopic bariatric procedure that provides a reduction of the gastric volume and an alteration of the gastric motility. The volume of the stomach is reduced by approximately 70% through plication of the greater curvature of the stomach using an endoscopic suturing device. In case of failure, the surgical conversion is possible. We present a case of a patient with previous ESG with insufficient weight loss and gastro-oesophageal reflux. We performed a conversion to Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass with satisfactory results.

Abstract Background Although the sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has good short-term results, it comes with a significant number of patients requiring revisional surgery because of insufficient weight loss or functional complications. Objective To investigate the effectiveness of the single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass (SADI-S) versus the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on health outcomes in (morbidly) obese patients who had previously undergone SG, with up to 5 years of follow-up. Methods Data from patients who underwent revisional SADI-S or RYGB after SG were retrospectively compared on indication of surgery, weight loss, quality of life, micronutrient deficiencies, and complications. Results From 2007 to 2017, 141 patients received revisional laparoscopic surgery after SG in three specialized Dutch bariatric hospitals (SADI-S n=63, RYGB n=78). Percentage total weight loss following revisional surgery at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years was 22%, 24%, 22%, 18%, and 15% for SADI-S and 10%, 9%, 7%, 8%, and 2% for RYGB (P<.05 for 1–4 years). Patients who underwent RYGB surgery for functional complications experienced no persistent symptoms of GERD or dysphagia in 88% of cases. No statistical difference was found in longitudinal analysis of change in quality of life scores or cross-sectional analysis of complication rates and micronutrient deficiencies. Conclusion Conversion of SG to SADI-S leads to significantly more total weight loss compared to RYGB surgery with no difference in quality of life scores, complication rates, or micronutrient deficiencies. When GERD in sleeve patients has to be resolved, RYGB provides adequate outcomes. Graphical abstract

Abstract Background It is already known that Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has gained popularity as a stand-alone procedure with good short-term results for weight loss. However, in the long-term, weight regain is considered as a complication. Demand for secondary surgery is rising, partly for this reason, but through that study we try to discover the efficacy of conversion of failed sleeve gastrectomy to one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) regarding weight loss and metabolic outcomes. Objective To asses the efficacy and safety of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) as a conversion surgery post Sleeve Gastrectomy failure as regard weight loss and metabolic outcomes. Patients and Methods This study is a retrospective cohort study which included 20 patients underwent one anastomosis gastric bypass at Ain-Shams University El-Demerdash Hospital, Cairo, Egypt and specialized bariatric center, Cairo, Egypt From February 2019 to July 2019 with 6 months of postoperative follow up till January 2019. Results In this study, we reviewed and analyzed the outcomes from the revision of the SG due to either inadequate weight loss or weight regain to one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) with %EBWL of 6.65% at 1 month, 13.61 % at 3 months and 20.86% at 6 months. Conclusion OAGB appears to be an effective and safe therapeutic technique as a revisional surgery for failed primary SG with good short-term results for treating morbid obesity and its associated comorbidities with a significantly low rate of complications. However the EBWL was less than what is reported after primary OAGB weight. Multicenter studies with larger series of patients and longer term follow up after SG revisions to OAGB are warranted.
