Endoluminal Vacuum Therapy as Effective Treatment for Patients with Postoperative Leakage After Metabolic Bariatric Surgery-A Single-Center Experience.

Background: Metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is standardized and safe. Nevertheless, complications such as anastomotic leakage (AL) or staple-line leakage (SLL) can occur. In upper GI or colorectal surgery, endoluminal vacuum therapy (EVT) offers a therapeutic alternative to revisional surgery.

Esophageal function and non-acid reflux evaluated by impedance-24 h-pH-metry, high-resolution manometry, and gastroscopy after one-anastomosis gastric bypass-outcomes of a prospective mid-term study.

Background: One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) is the third most common bariatric operation for patients with obesity worldwide. One concern about OAGB is the presence of acid and non-acid reflux in a mid- and long-term follow-up. The aim of this study was to objectively evaluate reflux and esophagus motility by comparing preoperative and postoperative mid-term outcomes.

Surgical Technique of Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S).

Laparoscopic Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a bariatric/metabolic procedure that has been gaining popularity in recent years. SADI-S strongly affects the secretion of various gut hormones, adipocytokines and incretins. From a mechanistic point of view, the operation combines malabsorption and restriction, and has been shown to have a long-lasting and significant impact on weight loss and remission of comorbidities.
