Risk factors of perioperative morbimortality after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: a club coelio multicenter study.

Objectives: Postoperative complications after Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) can dramatically compromise patient's outcome. The aim of this study is to analyze the per- and postoperative short-term outcomes after LSG and to assess predictive risk factors of complications.

Methods: The study group consisted of 790 patients (610 women and 180 men) who underwent LSG In 2014.

Evaluation of da Vinci Nissen fundoplication clinical results and cost minimization.

Background: A new technical tool was developed and introduced into the therapeutic field of videoscopic surgery-robotic telemanipulation surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate in a prospective randomized trial the feasibility of the Nissen procedure using the da Vinci and to evaluate the benefits and the costs of this new technique compared with the conventional laparoscopic approach.

Materials And Methods: Twenty patients with gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) were randomized into laparoscopic Nissen versus robot-assisted Nissen fundoplication.
