BackgroundWe have previously described our early experience with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) as a revisional procedure. The favorable results have stimulated us to continue using RYGB as our standard operating procedure after failed bariatric surgery. Our objective was to evaluate the perioperative risks, weight result, and abdominal symptoms 5 years after revisional RYGB surgery at a university hospital in Sweden.MethodsWe studied 121 patients undergoing revisional open RYGB (age 42.0 yr, body mass index 37.7 kg/m2, 101 women) 5 years after RYGB surgery. The patients underwent reoperation because of either intolerable side effects or inferior weight loss. The initial procedures were horizontal gastroplasty (n = 2), vertical banded gastroplasty (n = 34), gastric banding (n = 21), and silicone adjustable gastric banding (n = 64). The mean interval between the first surgery and revision was 5 years. The 5-year follow-up data were obtained annually using a questionnaire survey.ResultsThe average operating time was 162 minutes (range 75–355). In these 121 cases, 10 (8%) reoperations were performed in the first 30-day period (4 for leakage). No perioperative mortality occurred, and the 5-year follow-up rate was 91%. The mean body mass index was 30.7 kg/m2. Seven patients (5.7%) had undergone subsequent surgery because of complications. At follow-up, 93% reported being very satisfied or satisfied with the revisional procedure. Disturbing abdominal symptoms after RYGB were rare.ConclusionThe perioperative risks of revisional RYGB are greater than those for primary RYGB. However, because the long-term weight results and patient satisfaction are very good, we believe that the 8% reoperative rate is acceptable. We consider RYGB to be a suitable procedure for patients in whom previous bariatric procedures have failed. 相似文献
BackgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is considered an effective multipurpose operation for morbid obesity, although long-term results are still lacking. Also, the best procedure to be offered in the case of failed restrictive procedures is still debated. We here reported our results of LSG as a revisional procedure for inadequate weight loss and/or complications after adjustable gastric banding or gastroplasty.MethodsSince April 2005, 57 patients (20 men and 37 women), with a mean age of 49.9 ± 11.9 years, underwent revisional LSG, 52 after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding/adjustable gastric banding and 5 after vertical banded gastroplasty at our institution. The mean interval from the primary procedure to LSG was 7.54 ± 4.8 years. The LSG was created using a 34F bougie with an endostapler, after removing the laparoscopic adjustable gastric band or the anterior portion of the band in those who had undergone vertical banded gastroplasty. An upper gastrointestinal contrast study was performed within 3 days after surgery and, if the findings were negative, a soft diet was promptly started.ResultsA total of 41 patients had undergone concurrent band removal and LSG and 16 had undergone band removal followed by an interval LSG. Three cases required conversion to open surgery because of a large incisional hernia. The mean operative time was 120 minutes (range 90–180). One patient died of multiple organ failure from septic shock. Three patients (5.7%) developed a perigastric hematoma, 3 (5.7%) had leaks, and 1 had mid-gastric short stenosis. The median hospital stay was 5 days. The mean body mass index at revisional LSG was 45.7 ± 10.8 kg/m2 and had decreased to 39 ± 8.5 kg/m2 after 2 years, with a mean percentage of the estimated excess body mass index lost of 41.6% ± 24.4%. Two patients required a duodenal switch for insufficient weight loss.ConclusionLSG seems to be effective as revisional procedure for failed LAGB/vertical banded gastroplasty, although with greater complication rates than the primary procedures. Larger series and longer follow-up are needed to confirm these promising results. 相似文献
Background Bariatric surgery is growing worldwide. An increasing number of patients will require revisional procedures because of inadequate weight control, complications, or loss of quality of life.Methods From August 1999 to September 2003, 62 patients were submitted to laparoscopic revisional surgery.Results The primary operations consisted of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding in 39 cases, banded and nonbanded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in 17 cases, vertical banded gastroplasty in 4 cases, and biliopancreatic diversion in 2 cases. Although technically demanding, laparoscopic conversion to RYGB was possible in all cases. Mean operative time was 100 min. Mean hospital stay was 77 h. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications. A good body mass index reduction after the revisional procedure was observed with a 24 month follow-up period.Conclusions Laparoscopic revisional bariatric surgery is safe and effective. However, it should be performed only by experienced bariatric and laparoscopic surgeons. 相似文献
Disappointing long-term results, frequent band failure, and high rates of band-related complications increasingly necessitate revisional surgery after adjustable gastric banding. Laparoscopic conversion to gastric bypass has been recommended as the procedure of choice. This single-center retrospective study aimed to evaluate the long-term results of revisional gastric bypass after failed adjustable gastric banding.
Methods
The study included 108 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic conversion of gastric banding to gastric bypass from 2002 to 2012. Indications for surgery, operative data, weight development, morbidity, and mortality were analyzed. The median follow-up period was 3.4 years (maximum, 10 years).
Results
The most common indications for band removal were band migration, insufficient weight loss, and pouch dilation. The median interval between gastric banding and gastric bypass was 6.6 years. In 52 % of the cases, band removal and gastric bypass surgery were performed simultaneously as a single-stage laparoscopic procedure. The early postoperative morbidity rate was 10.2 %. The body mass index before gastric banding (43.3 kg/m2) decreased significantly to 37.9 kg/m2 before gastric bypass and to 28.8 kg/m2 5 years after gastric bypass.
Conclusions
This is the first report on the long-term outcome after conversion of failed adjustable gastric banding to gastric bypass. Findings have shown revisional gastric bypass to be a feasible bariatric procedure particularly for patients with insufficient weight loss that guarantees a constant and long-lasting weight loss. 相似文献
Background: Revision of gastric bariatric operations is sometimes technically difficult and may fail to achieve prolonged
weight reduction. The use of the adjustable silicone gastric banding (ASGB) offers a new approach for these revisions. Methods:
ASGB was performed as a revisional procedure on 37 patients whose initial bariatric operations were as follows: silastic ring
vertical gastroplasty (21), gastric bypass (12), horizontal gastroplasty (3) and vertical banded gastroplasty (1). Results:
The length of the procedure varied from 55 to 145 minutes (mean 83 minutes). Intraoperative complications included two fundic
tears which were sutured without any postoperative sequelae. Five patients needed reoperation during the first postoperative
year due to gastric volvulus (1), tubing tear (1) and development of postoperative ventral hernia (3). BMI fell from 44.8
± SD 8.07 to 33.4 ± 6.9 kg/m2 for patients operated with BMI higher than 35 kg/m2 and from 29.2 ± 3.32 to 25.4 ± 2.8 kg/m2 for patients operated with BMI lower than 35 kg/m2. Conclusions: ASBG can be performed with revisions with an acceptable complication rate and post-operative weight reduction. 相似文献
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical results of adjustable gastric banding and vertical banded gastroplasty for morbid obesity. DESIGN: Prospective randomised trial. SETTING: University hospital, Sweden. PATIENTS: 59 morbidly obese patients, listed for obesity surgery. INTERVENTIONS: Adjustable gastric banding (n = 29) or vertical banded gastroplasty (n = 30). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Weight loss, complications, need for revisional surgery, reflux symptoms and the patient's own evaluation. RESULTS: Five years after surgery the mean (SEM) weight reduction for adjustable gastric banding was 43 (3.0) kg and for vertical banded gastroplasty 35 (4.8) kg. One patient in each group died of unrelated causes during follow-up and 3 and 2 patients, respectively, were lost to follow-up. One patient in the vertical banded group required reoperation for an anastomotic leak on the third postoperative day. A total of 3 patients in the adjustable group required reoperation and 11 in the vertical banded group. CONCLUSIONS: Adjustable gastric banding carries a smaller risk of reoperation than vertical banded gastroplasty and the weight reduction is in the same order of magnitude. 相似文献
Revisional one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) for insufficient weight reduction following primary restrictive procedures is still investigated. We report mid-term outcomes and possible outcome predictors.
Materials and Methods
Single-center retrospective comparative study of revisional OAGB outcomes (2015–2018) following laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG); silastic ring vertical gastroplasty (SRVG) is separately discussed.
Results
In all, 203 patients underwent revisional OAGB following LAGB (n?=?125), SG (n?=?64), and SRVG (n?=?14). Comparing LAGB and SG, body mass index (BMI) at revision were 41.3?±?6.6 and 42?±?11.2 kg/m2 (p?=?0.64), reduced to 31.3?±?8.3 and 31.9?±?8.3 (p?=?0.64) at mid-term follow-up, respectively. Excess weight loss (EWL)?>?50% was achieved in?~?50%, with EWL of 79.4?±?20.4% (corresponding total weight loss 38.5?±?10.4%). SRVG patients had comparable outcomes. Resolution rates of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and hypertension (HTN) were 93.3% and 84.6% in LAGB compared with 100% and 100% in SG patients (p?=?0.47 and p?=?0.46), respectively.
In univariable analysis, EWL?>?50% was associated with male gender (p?<?0.001), higher weight (p?<?0.001), and BMI (p?=?0.007) at primary surgery, and higher BMI at revisional OAGB (p?<?0.001). In multivariable analysis, independent predictors for EWL?>?50% were male gender (OR?=?2.8, 95% CI 1.27–6.18; p?=?0.01) and higher BMI at revisional OAGB (OR?=?1.11, 95% CI 1.03–1.19; p?=?0.006).
Conclusion
Revisional OAGB for insufficient restrictive procedures results in excellent weight reduction in nearly 50% of patients, with resolution of T2D and HTN at mid-term follow-up. Male gender and higher BMI at revision were associated with EWL?>?50% following revisional OAGB. Identification of more predictors could aid judicious patient selection.
Background: Since the 1980s, bypass operations have been largely replaced by gastric restrictive operations. One of the most commonly performed operations for gastric restriction is vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG). However, the results are often disappointing. Adjustable gastric banding (AGB) is a viable alternative to VBG, and the ability to perform this surgery laparoscopically makes it an attractive option for patients in need of revisional surgery. It allows for refashioning of the gastric pouch in patients with a dilation of the pouch or disruption of the staple line. Methods: A total of 48 patients were referred to our center due to post-VBG weight gain. All patients underwent preoperative evaluation to determine the cause for failure of the operation. All patients found suitable for revisional surgery underwent laparoscopic placement of an adjustable band. Results: All but one of the operations were completed laparoscopically; one patient required conversion to open surgery prior to band placement via laparoscopy. This patient needed a blood transfusion. Postoperative band erosion occurred in one patient; laparoscopy surgery was used successfully for removal of the band and suturing of the stomach. Conclusions: Our short-term results indicate that revisional operation for morbid obesity using laparoscopic AGB is a safe procedure when performed cautiously. It enables early patient mobilization and discharge with good functional results and fewer perioperative complications. 相似文献
Vertical gastroplasty (VG) was worldwide and until recently a very popular restrictive bariatric procedure. Unfortunately,
many patients required revisional surgery for failure of this technique. The present study aimed to evaluate retrospectively
the feasibility, safety, and efficiency of conversion of failed VGs to laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB). 相似文献
BACKGROUND: Revisional bariatric operations are technically challenging and are associated with a high perioperative complication rate. Several parameters were analyzed to determine whether experience, coupled with technical innovation, reduced complications after these high-risk procedures. STUDY DESIGN: Outcomes of 215 consecutive revisional bariatric operations performed by 1 surgeon during the past 22 years were assessed before and after routine use of 6-row endostaplers and harmonic scalpel, which began in 2001. RESULTS: All but 3 operations were performed open, including 151 for weight loss failure (14 jejunoileal bypass, 71 gastroplasty or banding, 66 gastric bypass) and 64 for complications of the primary procedure (12 jejunoileal bypass, 11 gastroplasty or banding, 41 gastric bypass). Major perioperative complications occurred in 45 patients (21%): there were 15 leaks, 11 wound infections, 3 pulmonary embolisms, and 16 miscellaneous, including 3 deaths (1.4%). Morbidity after January 2001 was 6 of 73 (8.2%) versus 39 of 138 (28%) before 2001 (p < 0.0005). All deaths occurred before 2001. Complications occurred in 10 of 97 patients (10.3%) who had primary gastric restrictive operations (excluding banding) by the author versus 24 of 65 patients (36.9%) who had similar primary operations by other surgeons (p < 0.0001). Morbidity after second revisions was 70% versus 14.4% after first revisions (p < 0.0001). The 32 most recent patients were discharged in a mean of 3.0 days without complications. CONCLUSIONS: Incorporating the endostaplers and harmonic scalpel into open revisional operations significantly reduced postoperative complications. Because these 2 devices were introduced during the last 5 years of this study, it seems likely that cumulative experience also contributed to improved outcomes. Our results also suggest that surgeons perform their initial revisions on their own patients rather than on patients who had primary procedures elsewhere. Patients presenting as candidates for a second revision should be cautiously evaluated, anticipating a high morbidity rate. 相似文献
BackgroundRevisional bariatric surgery is increasing in frequency, but the morbidity and efficacy have not been well defined. The primary aim of this study was to determine the clinical efficacy with respect to weight loss, and associated morbidity, of revisional bariatric surgery in an academic university hospital bariatric surgery program.MethodsA retrospective review of all patients who underwent revisional bariatric surgery for failed primary restrictive procedures, including gastroplasty and gastric bypass, but not including gastric banding or malabsorptive procedures, during a 10-year period at a single university hospital was performed. The perioperative morbidity and long-term weight loss and clinical results were determined from the medical charts.ResultsA total of 41 patients met the inclusion criteria. The primary bariatric procedures included vertical banded gastroplasty in 20 and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in 21. The indications for revisional surgery included poor weight loss, weight regain, and various technical problems, including anastomotic stenosis and ulcer. The major morbidity rate was 17%. No patients died. The weight loss results varied depending on the indication for the revisional surgery and reoperative solution applied. The resolution of technical problems was achieved in all patients.ConclusionRevisional bariatric surgery can be performed with minimal mortality, albeit significant morbidity. The efficacy with respect to weight loss appeared acceptable, although the results were not as good as those after primary bariatric surgery. The analysis of patient subsets stratified by surgical history and revisional strategy provided important insights into the mechanisms of failure and efficacy of different revisional strategies. 相似文献
Bariatric revision surgery is associated with several complications that can be attributed to decreased quality of tissue
and complexity of the surgery. A laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy is a simple technique with potential advantages. Therefore,
the results of this procedure were evaluated as a revisional option. Fifty-one patients underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
(LSG). Indications for the LSG were insufficient weight loss (34 patients, group 1) or vomiting (17 patients, group 2) following
a laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) or vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG). Patient and procedure characteristics
as well as outcome were collected prospectively. From October 2006 to June 2010, 51 patients with a failed prior bariatic
procedure (VBG or LAGB) were converted to (L)SG. The conversion rate was zero. The median procedure time was 99 min (range
54–221) and hospital stay was 3 days (range 2–38). There was no mortality after 30 days. Complications included bleeding (six)
and leakage of the staple line (seven). Mean follow-up was 13.8 (2–46) months. LSG as revision surgery for insufficient weight
loss resulted in extra weight loss of 52.7%, and the overall extra weight loss was 49.3%. When LSG was performed because of
vomiting, 82% was able to eat solid food at follow-up. Of the 65 pre-existent co-morbidities, 21 were resolved and 18 improved.
LSG as a revision procedure is feasible. An additional weight loss and further resolution of co-morbidity seem achievable,
however, at the cost of a high number of complications. Therefore, revision bariatric surgery should be limited to expert
tertiary bariatric centers. 相似文献
Background: Revision of failed gastric restrictive procedures to proximal Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is the standard
for many bariatric surgeons. Where the patient is not a suitable candidate or simply refuses gastric bypass, an alternative
is herewith proposed. Methods: 3 patients had undergone a gastric banding as the original operation and 1 patient had had
a vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG). 1 patient presented with insufficient weight loss, 1 with regain of weight and 2 with
complaints of food intolerance and vomiting. The gastric bands were removed by hand-assisted laparoscopy (HALS), with conversion to a VBG. In the patient with stomal stenosis after a VBG, HALS interposition of PTFE was performed
to enlarge the collar. Results: In 2 patients, further weight reduction was achieved. In the other 2 patients, relief of symptoms
was achieved.There were no complications during or after the revisional surgery. Conclusion: HALS conversion of a gastric
banding to a VBG, or PTFE interposition in the case of stomal stenosis after a VBG, can be a valuable alternative for patients
unsuitable for or refusing proximal RYGBP. 相似文献
BackgroundBariatric surgery has been shown to produce the most predictable weight loss results, with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) being the most performed procedure as of 2014. However, inadequate weight loss may present the need for a revisional procedure.ObjectivesThe aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of laparoscopic resleeve gastrectomy (LRSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in attaining successful weight loss.SettingPublic hospital following SG.MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on all patients who underwent SG from 2008–2019. A list was obtained of those who underwent revisional bariatric surgery after initial SG, and their demographic characteristics were analyzed.ResultsA total of 2858 patients underwent SG, of whom 84 patients (3%) underwent either a revisional laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (rLRYGB) or LRSG. A total of 82% of the patients were female. The mean weight and body mass index (BMI) before SG for the LRSG and rLRYGB patients were 136.7 kg and 49.9 kg/m2 and 133.9 kg and 50.5 kg/m2, respectively. The mean BMI showed a drop from 42.0 to 31.7 (P < .001) 1 year post revisional surgery for the LRSG group and 42.7 to 34.5 (P < .001) for the rLRYGB group, correlating to an excess weight loss (EWL) of 61.7% and 48.1%, respectively. At 5 years post revisional surgery, LRSG patients showed an increase in BMI to 33.8 (EWL = 45.3%), while those who underwent rLRYGB showed a decrease to 34.3 (EWL = 49.2%). Completeness of follow-up at 1, 3, and 5 years for rLRYGB and LRSG were 67%, 35%, and 24% and 45%, 21%, and 18%, respectively.ConclusionsRevisional bariatric surgery is a safe and effective method for the management of failed primary SG. LRSG patients tended to do better earlier on; however, it leveled off with those who underwent rLRYGB by 5 years. 相似文献
Background Revision of bariatric procedures is required in 10 to 25% of patients either for insufficient weight loss or for complications.
Patients undergoing vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG; Mason MacLean) may require revision in up to half of the cases in the
long term. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) is considered the procedure of choice for revision of VBG gastroplasty.
Patients and Methods Eighteen patients, 16 women and 2 men with a mean age of 41.7 years (range 27–72) and a mean BMI at 37.6 kg/m2 (range 22.5–47), underwent laparoscopic conversion of VBG into RYGBP. Indications for revisional surgery were insufficient
weight loss (11 patients), stoma stenosis (4 patients), and acid reflux (3 patients).
Results Operative time was on average 203 min (range 60–300 min), and conversion was required in one patient (5.5%). There was no
early postoperative mortality, and four patients (22.2%) developed immediate postoperative complications (gastrojejunostomy
leak 1; stenosis of the gastrojejunal anastomosis 2; liver abscess 1). One patient died 6 months after conversion because
of a bleeding anastomotic ulcer (late mortality 5.5%). Two patients (11.5%) developed late complications (incisional hernia
1; internal hernia 1). At a mean follow-up of 23, 4 months BMI is on average 29.8 kg/m2 (range 22.7–37).
Conclusion Although revision of failed VBG into RYGBP gives good functional results, the risk of postoperative serious complications
must be carefully evaluated before revision. 相似文献
BackgroundBariatric surgery underwent a dramatic change in the past decade in France. The objective of this study was to examine elective bariatric surgical procedures from 2005 to 2011 in France and to determine trends in the use of the procedure.MethodsData were extracted from the National Hospital Database. All admissions involving a bariatric surgery procedure were included. Procedures authorized by the Public Health Authority for the treatment of morbid obesity, including the adjustable gastric banding (AGB), vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG), gastric bypass (GB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and biliopancreatic diversion (BPD), either by laparotomic or laparoscopic approach, were retrieved. Revisional procedures, such as band removal or repositioning, band changing, and access device revisions, were also evaluated.ResultsWe observed a 2.5-fold increase in bariatric procedures, from 12,800 in 2005 to 31,000 in 2011. Sleeve gastrectomy and gastric bypass became the most common bariatric procedures in France in 2011, whereas adjustable gastric banding has been decreasing since 2007. During the analysis period, about 50,000 revisional procedures were performed. The number of hospitals (private or public) providing bariatric surgery has considerably increased. However, most of the activity remains confined to a small number of centers, as 50% of all bariatric surgeries are carried out in 12% of hospitals. Bariatric procedures are predominantly performed in private hospitals.ConclusionsIn France the number of bariatric procedures increased considerably between 2005 and 2011. The type of procedures changed, with a constant decrease of AGB and an important increase of SG and GB. Most bariatric procedures are still performed in low volume activity hospitals and in private hospitals. 相似文献
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. All interventions were performed by 18 experienced surgeons members of the Club Coelio. Data about preoperative work-up, surgical techniques, 30-days postoperative morbidity and mortality were collected. Endpoints were perioperative morbidity and mortality and assessment of potential risk factors for complications.Results: Mean age and body mass index were respectively 39 years and 41.5kg/m2. Ninety-one patients (11.5%) had previous bariatric surgery. Morbidity rate was 4.7% (37/790) including 16 leaks (2.0%) and 9 bleedings (1.1%) and no deaths. Risk factors for leak were: previous adjustable banding (p?=?.0051), with no difference between removal of the banding and LSG in 1 or 2 steps, and type of endostapler (p?=?.0129).Conclusions: Leakage after Sleeve was rare but still observed even in experienced hands. The leak rate is particularly high when LSG is performed after adjustable gastric banding removal. 相似文献
Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) often necessitates revisional surgery for weight regain or symptoms related to gastric outlet obstruction. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is considered as the revisional procedure of choice. However, revisional bariatric surgery is associated with relatively higher rates of complications. The aim of the current study is to analyse our single-centre experience with patients requiring revisional RYGB following primary VBG.
Methods
Retrospective review of the prospectively collected database identified 153 patients who underwent RYGB as a revisional procedure after VBG from Feb 2004–Feb 2011. Early and late complications, weight data and resolution of symptoms related to gastric outlet obstruction were analysed.
Results
One hundred twenty-three females and 30 males underwent revisional RYGB post VBG. Mean age was 44.4 (15–74) years with a mean pre-operative body mass index (BMI) of 34.2 (23.5–65.5) kg/m2. Mean hospital stay was 4.3 days. Early complication rate was 3.9 % with a 30-day re-operation rate of 1.3 %. Mortality and leak rate were zero. After a mean follow-up of 48 months, the mean BMI decreased significantly to 28.8 kg/m2 and a complete resolution of the obstructive symptoms was achieved in nearly all patients. Late complications developed in 11 (7.7 %) of the patients of which seven (4.9 %) required surgery.
Conclusions
Revisional RYGB following VBG is technically challenging but safe with low rates of morbidity and mortality, comparable to primary RYGB. It produces a significant reduction in body weight and in symptoms resolution. We recommend RYGB as the procedure of choice in patients requiring revisional surgery following VBG. 相似文献
BackgroundPatients having previous bariatric surgery are at risk for weight regain and return of co-morbidities. If an anatomic basis for the failure is identified, many surgeons advocate revision or conversion to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The aim of this study was to determine whether revisional bariatric surgery leads to sufficient weight loss and co-morbidity remission.Patients and MethodsFrom 2005-2012, patients undergoing revision were entered into a prospectively maintained database. Perioperative outcomes, including complications, weight loss, and co-morbidity remission, were examined for all patients with a history of a previous vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).ResultsTwenty-two patients with a history of RYGB and 56 with a history of VBG were identified. Following the revisional procedure, the RYGB group experienced 35.8% excess weight loss (%EWL) and a 31.8% morbidity rate. For the VBG group, patients experienced a 46.2% %EWL from their weight before the revisional operation with a 51.8% morbidity rate. Co-morbidity remission rate was excellent. Diabetes (VBG:100%, RYGB: 85.7%), gastroesophageal reflux disease (VBG: 94.4%, RYGB: 80%), and hypertension (VBG: 74.2%, RYGB:60%) demonstrated significant improvement.ConclusionRevision of a failed RYGB or conversion of a VBG to a RYGB provides less weight loss and a higher complication rate than primary RYGB but provides an excellent opportunity for co-morbidity remission. 相似文献
Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) is the first bariatric procedure in Europe and is becoming more and more popular
in North America. However, the failure rate at 5 years can reach 50%. Although there is still no consensus on revisional surgery,
the trend seems to be in favor of conversion to gastric bypass (GBP) with encouraging results. The aim of this study was to
assess the results, the risks of conversion into GBP after failure of gastric banding. From January 2003 to July 2010, 85
patients had a revisional GBP after failure of LAGB, performed by two experienced surgeons. Post-operative morbidity, functional
results, and weight loss were analyzed. The conversion rate was 2.3%. The mean operative time was 166 min. The mean length
of stay was 5.2 days. The early morbidity rate was 7% and the mortality rate was nil. The mean body mass index (BMI) at the
time of LAGB was 47.2 kg/m2 with the lowest BMI reached at 35. The mean BMI at conversion into GBP was 42.9 and the final BMI after a mean follow-up
of 22 months was 34.8. Of the patients, 57.7% had a final BMI inferior to 35 and 15.3% had a final BMI superior to 40 and
these were super obese and older patients. Super-obesity and advanced age appear to be factors of failure of LAGB and revisional
GBP. However, conversion into GBP currently remains the choice procedure in case of gastric banding failure with satisfactory
results and acceptable morbidity. 相似文献
