Gastroesophageal reflux after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: Is it just related to technical details?

Although it is uncommon, gastroesophageal reflux disease can present after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and it is usually related to technical errors. Hiatal hernia, a narrow calibrated gastrojejunostomy and a long gastric pouch are all factors associated with the development of pathologic gastroesophageal reflux. Techniques are available to treat this condition, such as fundoplications with the gastric remnant, gastropexy to the arcuate ligament, teres ligament repair, or sphincter augmentation with the LINX device.

Prognostic role of the log odds of positive lymph nodes in Western patients with resected gastric cancer: A comparison with the 8th edition of the TNM staging system.

Objectives: Several alternative lymph node staging systems have recently been described for gastric cancer. The log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) system may be superior to the pN stage (American Joint Committee on Cancer) and lymph node ratio systems in predicting outcomes for patients with gastric cancers, as indicated by some researchers. Most studies, however, have been conducted in Asian countries, and conflicting results have been reported by other investigators.

Three-year survival and distribution of lymph node metastases in gastric cancer following neoadjuvant chemotherapy: results from a European randomized clinical trial.

Background: Adequate lymphadenectomy is an important step in gastrectomy for cancer, with a modified D2 lymphadenectomy being recommended for advanced gastric cancers. When assessing a novel technique for the treatment of gastric cancer, lymphadenectomy should be non-inferior. The aim of this study was to assess completeness of lymphadenectomy and distribution patterns between open total gastrectomy (OTG) and minimally invasive total gastrectomy (MITG) in the era of peri-operative chemotherapy.

Mixed Meal Tolerance Test Versus Continuous Glucose Monitoring for an Effective Diagnosis of Persistent Post-Bariatric Hypoglycemia.

Gastric bypass determines an increase in incretin secretion and glucose excursions throughout the day and may sometimes entail the development of severe post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH). However, there is no consensus on the gold standard method for its diagnosis. In this study, we evaluated the usefulness of a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) and continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for the diagnosis of PBH, defined as glucose levels <54 mg/dL (3.

Combined Effect of Genetic Variants on Long-Term Weight Response after Bariatric Surgery.

The pathophysiology of body weight control involves complex interactions between hormonal, environmental, behavioral and genetic factors. The purpose of this study was to analyze the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of 13 genes encoding gastrointestinal peptides, their receptors or the proteins involved in their expression, with long-term weight response in a cohort of 375 patients undergoing bariatric surgery (BS). To evaluate weight response, we combined several variables to define specific response phenotypes six years after surgery.

Side-to-side magnet anastomosis system duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy: early multi-center results.
