AI Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the use of side-to-side anastomosis between the lesser curvature of the stomach and jejunum during laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in patients with type 2 diabetes.
- A total of 29 patients underwent the procedure without needing to switch to open surgery, and there were no significant complications like bleeding or obstruction after the operation.
- The findings suggest that this method simplifies the procedure, allowing for precise control of the anastomosis size while being easy to learn for surgical teams.
Article Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the application of side-to-side anastomosis of the lesser curvature of stomach and jejunum in laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB).
Methods: Clinical data of 29 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) undergoing side to side anastomosis of the lesser curvature of stomach and jejunum in LRYGB from May 2012 to November 2012 in Department of General Surgery, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University were analyzed retrospectively.
Results: All the procedures were successfully completed without conversion to laparotomy. The side-to-side anastomosis of the lesser curvature of stomach and jejunum avoided the laparoscopic suture. No gastrojejunostomy anastomotic bleeding, fistula, obstruction and other complications occurred after operation and no complications of gastrojejunostomy anastomosis were found during a follow up of 1 to 7 months.
Conclusions: Side-to-side anastomosis of the lesser curvature of stomach and jejunum in LRYGB can manipulate the size of anastomosis accurately and avoid the laparoscopic suturing. It is simple and easy to learn.
