Introduction: The aim of that study was to compare outcomes after Toupet-Sleeve (T-Sleeve) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) as primary bariatric procedures in obese patients presenting with preoperative gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD).
Material And Methods: The outcomes of 19 consecutive patients operated between 2017 and 2019 by T-Sleeve were compared to the outcomes of 38 patients operated in 2014 by SG. The two groups were matched by age, sex, ASA classification, BMI, food habits and severity of esophagitis.
Background: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most frequently performed bariatric procedure in the world. Our purpose was to evaluate the percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), resolution of obesity-related comorbidities after SG, and identify predictive factors of weight loss failure.
Methods: A prospective cohort study of adults who underwent SG during 2014 in 7 Belgian-French centers.
Objective: To assess the 10-year outcomes after sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Primary end-points were the long-term weight loss and the need for conversion and one of the secondary end-points was the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux (GERD).
Materials And Methods: Between 2006 and 2008, 40 consecutive patients had a primary SG.
Introduction: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) became the most frequently performed bariatric procedure worldwide, gaining rapidly popularity thanks to its technical simplicity and the relatively good results. The aim of this Belgian-French study was to evaluate postoperative complications, weight loss, and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities after LSG, and identify predictive factors of weight loss failure.
Patients And Methods: A prospective multicenter study was conducted on all LSG performed during 2014 in 7 centers.
: The optimal timing for cholecystectomy in patients with acute cholecystitis remains controversial. The aim of this study is to assess prospectively the impact of the duration of symptoms on outcomes in early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (ELC) for acute cholecystitis. : The series consisted of 276 consecutive patients who underwent ELC for acute cholecystitis in 2016.
