Abstract The outcome of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), one of the most common bariatric surgery (BS) procedure, may differ depending on the patient’s age, gender, preoperative BMI. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of LSG technique on weight loss, obesity-associated co-morbidities and complications in patients undergoing LSG over three months and one year, regarding their age, gender, and BMI. The LSG associated complications in participants regarding their preoperative BMI (<39.9 and >39.9), age (30-40 and 40-50), and gender were assessed after 2 3 and 12 months. Besides, the remission and improvement rates of comorbid conditions in patients were examined after 12 months of LSG. Our results showed that LSG led to a significant weight loss in the resolution of obesity-associated co-morbidities and different complications after one year. No significant difference was found in the improvement and the resolution of obesity-associated co-morbidities according to gender. Also, the class 3 patients had significantly higher rates of hearing loss after 12 months and had higher levels of depression and brittle nails three months after the surgery. The younger patients also showed a significantly higher percentage of dry skin, intolerance to bread, and menstrual disorder compared to the older group.

AbstractLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is the most frequently performed surgical intervention in patients with morbid obesity. Single-port sleeve gastrectomy (SPSG) and reduced-port sleeve gastrectomy (RPSG) are increasingly reported in the literature. This study compared the short-term outcomes of SPSG, RPSG, and conventional laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (CLSG). This is a single-center retrospective study of 238 morbidly obese patients, of whom 148 (62.2%) patients completed follow-up one year after surgery. Propensity score matching was performed on factors influencing the choice of approach, and fifty patients from the SPSG + RPSG and CLSG groups were successfully matched. The groups were comparable in postoperative weight loss, morbidity, pain, and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. The percentage of excess weight loss after one year was 90.0% in the SPSG + RPSG group and 75.2% in the CLSG group (P < 0.001). Complication rates showed no significant difference. The CLSG group was superior in dyslipidemia remission (17 [37.0%] vs. 28 [63.6%], P = 0.018) in the total cohort; however, this difference disappeared after matching. Our results suggest that single-port and reduced-port approaches could be alternative choices for selected patients. As our study was limited by its retrospective nature and potential selection bias, further studies are necessary to set standardized guidelines for SPSG.

Objective: To determine the early outcomes of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy with respect to weight loss and amelioration of comorbid conditions in morbidly obese patients. Study Design: Prospective descriptive study. Place and Duration of Study: MTI-Lady Reading hospital Peshawar and Royal Imperial hospital Swat from January 2018 to January 2020. Materials and Methods: Total thirty-eight morbidly obese patients of either sex with age range of 25-65 years were included in this study. Informed written consent was taken from all the patients and their demographic details such as age, sex and comorbid conditions were recorded. All the patients underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Preoperative and postoperative data such as body mass index, total & excess weight loss and impact on comorbidities were analyzed. Bariatric Analysis and Reporting Outcome System (BAROS) scoring system was used to analyze the outcomes. Follow-up was taken at 1 year post-operatively. Results: Majority were female 25 (65.8%) patients and 13 (34.2%) males with mean age of 45.39±9.64 years. Comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia and obstructive sleep apnoea were recorded in 13.2%, 26.3%, 7.9% and 10.53% patients respectively. Mean excess body weight loss (EWL) was 60.25±12.7 kg and mean body mass index loss was 15.14+9.33 kg/m2at 1 year follow up. Postoperative systolic blood pressure improvement was observed in 23 (60.5%) patients. A significant improvement was observed regarding diabetes mellitus (preoperatively mean HbA1C 9.7±5.9 vs postoperatively mean HbA1C 4.42±3.6) p-value <0.001. According to the BAROS score, 5 (13.3%) showed excellent, 14 (36.8%) showed very good, 17 (44.74%) showed good, 2 (5.3%) showed fair and no patient showed poor outcomes. Satisfaction rate among patients was 94.7%. Conclusion: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is an excellent procedure both in terms of weight loss and amelioration of comorbid conditions in morbidly obese patients. Key words: Sleeve gastrectomy, Laparoscopic, Excess body weight loss, Morbid obesity

Abstract Background Adolescent obesity is an important health issue. Non-surgical weight management programs, even the most aggressive, have shown modest weight reduction results. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is gaining reliability as a low surgical risk bariatric procedure with proper efficiency for this age group. The aim of this study was to present our initial experience with LSG in morbidly obese adolescents and to report short-term clinical and metabolic outcome. Results Mean age was 16.43 years, and mean preoperative weight and body mass index (BMI) were 132.68 kg and 48.90 respectively. Mean excess weight loss (EWL) was 54.11 kg 1 year after LSG, corresponding to 74 EWL% as well as mean BMI loss (BML) of 19.89. LSG improved fatty infiltration of the liver in 75% of cases and other comorbidities in 100% of patients. Conclusions LSG proved to be a safe procedure with significant short-term clinical and metabolic success for adolescent obesity.

Introduction: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is a primary treatment of obesity among older adults and its satisfactory outcomes would be the main reason behind the popularity of this procedure. We aim to evaluate the impact of age on excess weight loss in adult morbidly obese subjects older than 60 years old following LSG.Methods: In this retrospective survey, 3,072 subjects were included in the study that underwent LSG in Erfan Hospital. Screening follow-up period was 12 months. The level of statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. We hired comorbid conditions to avoid bias results including hypertension, diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia. Results: Of 3072 patients, 1879 cases were females (61.2%) and 1193 subjects were males (38.8 %). Mean %EBMIL of the group 12 months after surgery was 78.9 %. In younger than 60 years old group, mean %EBMIL 12 months postoperative 83 % and patients  over 60 years demonstrated mean %EBMIL 74.9 %. There was an obvious difference among age groups in presence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension in the older group which was more frequent. Conclusion: To sum up, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is safe procedure for older groups. Albeit, %EBMIL was significantly lower in older group compared to younger subjects, but resolution in comorbidities was satisfactory.

Abstract Background The incidence of obesity has been constantly growing and bariatric procedures are considered to be the most effective treatment solution for morbidly obese patients. The results of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) may differ depending on patient’s age, gender, preoperative body mass index (BMI) and physical activity. Methods The aim of this study was to evaluate age-related differences in the outcome of LSG in terms of weight loss parameters, lipid and carbohydrate profile. The retrospective analysis of 555 patients who had undergone LSG was performed to compare the metabolic outcomes of surgery in individuals < 45 and ≥ 45 years old. Evaluation of weight loss parameters along with selected laboratory data was performed to demonstrate the results of LSG in 2 years follow-up. Results Overall, 238 males and 317 females (43%/57%) with median age of 43 years and median preoperative BMI of 46.41 (42.06–51.02) kg/m2 were analyzed. Patients in both groups presented significant weight loss at 24 months after the surgery with comparable percentage of total weight loss (40.95% in < 45 years old group and 40.44% in ≥ 45 years old group). The percentage of excess weight loss (78.52% vs. 74.53%) and percentage of excess BMI loss (91.95% vs. 88.01%) were higher in patients < 45 years old. However, the differences were not statistically significant (p = 0.662, p = 0.788 respectively). Patients under 45 years old experienced faster decrease in fasting glucose level that was observed after only 3 months (109 mg/dl to 95 mg/dl in < 45 years old group vs. 103.5 mg/dl to 99.5 mg/dl in ≥ 45 years old group, p < 0.001). Both groups presented improvement of lipid parameters during the observation. However, patients < 45 years old achieved lower values of LDL at 3 and 12 months follow-up (115 mg/dl vs. 126 mg/dl, p = 0.010; 114.8 mg/dl vs. 122 mg/dl, p = 0.002). Younger group of patients also showed superior improvement of triglycerides level. Conclusions LSG results in significant weight loss in all patients regardless age. In turn, superior and faster improvement in lipid and carbohydrate profile is achieved in patients under 45 years old.

Abstract Introduction: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a popular weight loss surgery technique, but the impact on esophageal physiology and esophagogastric junction is still debatable. The aim of our study was to evaluate the manometric changes of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) after LSG in order to indicate LES manometry pre- procedure. Methods: In a prospective study we evaluated clinically, with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and high-resolution esophageal manometry 45 morbidly obese patients before, and 6-12 months after LSG. Results: The BMI (body mass index) decreased from 46.28±5.79 kg/m2 to 32.28±4.65 kg/m2 postoperatively (p <0.01), with a reduction of ~14 kg/m2 of BMI, 39.9 (±11.9) kg body weight and 29.9 (± 6.2)% of the TWL (Total Weight Loss index), in a median interval of 7.9 months. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) prevalence increased from 17.8% to 31.1% postoperatively, with new GERD onset in 22.2%, but mild symptomatology (the median GERDHRQL score increased from 1.56 to 2.84 points). Postoperatory reflux was associated with lower esophageal sphincter (LES) hypotonia, shortening of LES length and IIGP (increased intragastric pressure). Hiatal hernia repair rate was 17.8%, and proton pump inhibitor consumption 20%. After weight loss, the 10 cases of esophagitis discovered preoperatively cured, but 3 patients were diagnosed with de novo esophagitis. The prevalence of manometric dysmotility after LSG was 28.9%, lower than before surgery (44.4%). Conclusion: Even if GERD remains the main limitation of LSG, the high-resolution esophageal manometry has proved useful and should be implemented in morbidly obese evaluation protocol, to better select the bariatric procedure.

Besides massive body weight loss, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) causes massive lean mass, including fat-free mass (FFM) and skeletal muscle mass (SM) that present higher metabolic rates in males. This study examines sex differences in FFM and SM changes of type 2 diabetes (T2D) remission at 12 months post-LSG. This cohort study recruited 119 patients (53.7% females) with T2D and obesity (body mass index 42.2 ± 7.0 kg/m2) who underwent LSG. Fat-mass (FM) loss was higher in males than in females (−12.8 ± 6.2% vs. −9.9 ± 5.0%, p = 0.02) after one-year post-operation. Regardless of the weight-loss difference, males had higher FFM and SM gain than did females (12.8 ± 8.0 vs. 9.9 ± 5.0% p = 0.02 and 6.5 ± 4.3% vs. 4.9 ± 6.2%, p = 0.03, respectively). Positive correlations of triglyceride reduction with FM loss (r = 0.47, p = 0.01) and SM gain (r = 0.44, p = 0.02) over 12 months post-operation were observed in males who achieved T2D remission. The T2D remission rate significantly increased 16% and 26% for each additional percentage of FFM and SM gain one year after LSG, which only happened in males. Increased FFM and SM were remarkably associated with T2D remission in males, but evidence lacks for females.
