Objective: To summarize the surgical technique and perioperative management of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).
Methods: A total of 57 morbid obesity patients undergoing LSG surgery from May 2010 to December 2012 were enrolled in the study, whose clinical data in perioperative period were analyzed retrospectively. These patients had more than 1 year of follow-up. All the patients received preoperative preparation and postoperative management, and postoperative excess weight loss(EWL%) and improvement of preoperative complications was evaluated.
Results: All the cases completed the operation under laparoscopy, except 1 case because of the abdominal extensive adhesion. The average operation time was(102.0±15.2) min and the mean intraoperative blood loss (132.3±45.6) ml. Of 2 postoperative hemorrhage patients, 1 case received conservative treatment, and another one underwent laparoscopic exploration. The EWL% at 3 months, 6 months and 1 year after procedure was (54.9±13.8)%, (79.0±23.6)% and (106.9±25.1)% respectively. The preoperative complications were improved in some degree. There were no operative death, and anastomotic leak, anastomotic stenosis, or surgical site infection occurred.
Conclusion: LSG is a safe and effective surgical technique, whose safety and efficacy may be increased by improving the perioperative management.

Background: Robotic-assisted bariatric surgery is growing rapidly. The optimal approach to minimize complications remains unclear.
Objective: Assess robot utilization and compare 30-day outcomes for laparoscopic and robotic primary sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) using the Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program (MBSAQIP) database.
Background: This study aimed to compare outcomes following antral preserving (AP) and antral resecting (AR) laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in terms of weight loss, gastric emptying time, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), resolution of associated medical problems, and complications.
Methods: Patients were prospectively randomized into two groups: the AR group (resection starting 2 cm from the pylorus) and the AP group (resection at 5 cm from the pylorus). Follow-up evaluations included assessments of weight loss using percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) and percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), gastric emptying, GERD symptoms, associated medical problem resolution, residual gastric volume, and complications.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is a restrictive surgery that aims to decrease the gastric volume of the patient. This study hypothesized that a higher resected gastric volume to the number of fired staplers ratio is associated with improved postoperative 12th-month outcomes. To analyze the effects of resected gastric volume to the number of fired staplers ratio on postoperative results in patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy.

While the effectiveness of metabolic/bariatric surgery has been confirmed, understanding the factors associated with weight loss is paramount for providing guidance in postoperative treatment strategies. Here, we aimed to examine the factors associated with long-term maintenance of weight loss after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). This prospective observational cohort included patients who underwent LSG at a single academic health center between January 2017 and June 2022.

However, no guidelines recommend routine histology. This study evaluates the clinical utility of LSG sample analysis and if incidental diagnoses have a significant clinical impact.
