AI Article Synopsis
- Post-sleeve gastrectomy fistulas are serious complications often treated with endoscopy, providing options like stent or clip placements.
- Newer endoscopic techniques, such as vacuum therapy and suturing, are gaining attention in the treatment landscape.
- Additionally, the narrative review evaluates the challenges of reoperating after gastric band migration and considers endoscopic retrieval as a non-invasive solution.
Article Abstract
Post-sleeve gastrectomy fistulas are a rare but possibly severe life-threatening complication. Besides early reoperation and drainage, endoscopy is the main treatment option. According to the clinical setting, endoscopic treatment options comprise stent or clip placement. New endoscopic therapies have recently gained attention, including endoscopic vacuum therapy, VacStent therapy, endoscopic internal drainage with pigtail stents, endoscopic suturing and stem cell injection. In this narrative review, we shed light on recent literature, developments, indications and contraindications of these treatments. Intragastric gastric band migration is a rare complication after gastric band positioning. Reoperation can sometimes be difficult, especially when a gastric band has already migrated far into the stomach. Endoscopic retrieval can be a valid, non-invasive therapeutic solution. We reviewed the current literature on this matter.

To date, no prospective study has been conducted to compare the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic snare resection with an elastic band (ESR-EB) and endoscopic snare resection with a transparent cap (ESR-C) for treating gastric muscularis propria lesions. We aimed to compare the safety and effectiveness of ESR-EB with those of ESR-C for gastric muscularis propria lesions less than 10 mm in diameter. A total of 64 patients were enrolled prospectively from May 2023 to November 2023 at Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University, and the People's Hospital of Zhongshan City.

To assess the medium-term weight loss and maintenance of lean body mass (ideal weight/weight loss maintenance) following the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgical procedure with or without the use of a rigid gastric ring. An observational cohort study with a retrospective approach was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of RYGB with and without a band in patients with morbid obesity. The outcomes were assessed by analyzing data obtained from medical records, including pre- and postoperative data.

Pregnancy after laparoscopic adjusted gastric banding (LAGB) is thought to be safe and lowers the risk for maternal obstetric complications, without causing a difference in birth weight or a higher incidence of neonatal complications. Even though LAGB complications in pregnancy are rare, they are often severe and can cause significant maternal and neonatal morbidity. This report outlines the case of a pregnant 32-year-old female with gastric band slippage in the third trimester and provides a summary of the literature on LAGB complications in pregnancy and their management.
