The Evaluation of Serum Endocan, Interleukin-6, and CRP Levels Following Sleeve Gastrectomy.

Background: The excessive accumulation of fat tissue in obesity is the source of chronic low-level inflammation and causes future dysmetabolic and cardiovascular disorders. Removal of this excessive fat tissue with the aid of bariatric surgery (BS) techniques, such as sleeve gastrectomy, may reverse adverse inflammatory outcomes. The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of sleeve gastrectomy on inflammatory markers, specifically endocan, IL-6, and CRP, in individuals with obesity.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy With Transit Loop Bipartition and Transit Bipartition in Type 2 Diabetic Patients With Obesity: A Retrospective Analysis.

Aim: We aimed to compare 1-year postoperative results of patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (LSG-TB) and transit loop bipartition (LSG-TLB) and mini gastric bypass (MGB).

Patients And Methods: This is a retrospective comparison of 2 novel bariatric surgery techniques with MGB. Primary outcome measure of the study was a rate of T2DM remission.

Early Results of Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy With Loop Bipartition.

Purpose: We evaluated early results of this new procedure of transit loop bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy (TLB-SG), making a comparison with transit bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2017 and September 2017, 22 patients have undergone transit bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy or TLB-SG surgery in our clinic. Patients' body mass index, excess body mass index loss, and HOMA-IR were calculated before and after the surgical operation.

Effects and Results of Omentopexy During Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to demonstrate that gastric volvulus can be prevented by omentopexy and sleeve gastrectomy without increasing other complication rates.

Materials And Methods: A total of 1385 patients who underwent omentopexy and sleeve gastrectomy between April 2013 and September 2017 were included this study. Body mass index, age, sex, comorbidities, and postoperative complications of the patients were recorded as data.
