RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Society of American Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons (SAGES) Masters Program designated bariatric surgery as a clinical pathway. Among the tiers of the Masters Program, revisional bariatric surgery is the highest tier of "mastery" within the pathway. This article presents the top 10 seminal studies representing the current landscape of revisional bariatrics. METHODS: The literature was systematically searched and seminal articles designated by consensus agreement of the SAGES Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery committee using multiple criteria, including impact on the field, citation frequency, and expert opinion. Articles were reviewed by committee members and presented in summarized fashion. RESULTS: The top 10 papers are presented in grouped thematic categories covering the early evolution of revisional bariatrics, changing criteria for reoperative bariatric surgery, divergence of revision versus conversion bariatric surgery, and recent technologic innovations in revisional bariatric surgery. Each summary is presented with expert appraisal and commentary. CONCLUSION: These seminal papers represent a snapshot of the dynamic field of revisional bariatric surgery and emphasize the need to not only remain current with contemporary trends but also keep a patient-oriented perspective on patient and intervention selection for optimal success.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Staple line reinforcement (SLR) is commonly used in bariatric surgeries to reduce leaks and bleeds. With the evolution of staplers, the need for buttressing with the latest surgical stapling technology is in question. The efficacy of GORE® SEAMGUARD® (G-SLR) to improve staple line strength based on an established measure of burst pressure was evaluated. A benchtop test on synthetic tissue evaluated the pressure required for staple line leak across surgical staplers with and without G-SLR. METHODS: Staple lines on a consistent thickness synthetic bowel were pressurized to the point of failure (burst pressure) among Ethicon®, Intuitive®, and Medtronic® surgical staplers with and without G-SLR. Burst pressure and leak location (through the staple line [TTSL] or through the staple [TTS], on the anvil or cartridge side) were recorded. Visual confirmation of a leak concluded each test. RESULTS: The pooled mean burst pressure for G-SLR was greater (p < 0.05) by 0.494 pounds/square inch compared with no reinforcement with no meaningful differences among staplers. Leak failures were primarily TTS (91.7%) and equally distributed between reinforcement groups with more leak failures on the cartridge side with G-SLR and on the anvil side for non-SLR group. Leaks occurred across the length of staple lines with no discernable pattern. CONCLUSION: Employing a buttressing material strengthens the staple line, as measured by burst pressure, and may reduce the risk for staple line failure. This benchtop study of G-SLR with three commonly used surgical staplers demonstrated a significant increase in burst pressures among the studied stapling devices.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery is commonly used in patients with body mass indexes over 35 kg/m and obesity-related comorbidities. Despite the significant clinical benefits of bariatric surgery, nutritional deficiencies post-surgery remain a challenge for both patient and healthcare provider [Toninello et al. in Nutrients 13:1565, 2021, Gasmi et al. in Eur J Nutr 61:55-67, 2022]. Nutritional supplementation is a way of reducing the likelihood of postoperative deficiencies; however, prior studies have shown varying degrees of mostly poor to moderate patient adherence [Spetz et al. in Obes Res Clin Pract 16:407-412, 2022, Mahawar et al. in Obes Surg 29:1551-1556, 2019, Santonicola et al. in J Am Nutr Assoc 41:11-19, 2022, Sherf Dagan et al. in Obes Surg 27:2258-2271, 2017]. Our present study aims to provide insights into the micronutrient biochemical profile in patients previously found to be compliant with supplementation following roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB) and vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG). METHODS: An 11-point outpatient survey was administered to consecutive patients ≥ 18 years who had undergone either RYGB or VSG to determine adherence with nutritional supplementation. Medical records were retrospectively reviewed to determine preoperative and postoperative lab values, including vitamins A, B1, B12, and D, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), iron binding capacity, transferrin, ferritin, folate, iron, albumin, hemoglobin A1C, zinc, glomerular filtration rate (GFR, and liver function values. Values were classified as "abnormal" or "normal." Preoperative and postoperative values were compared for differences. Postoperative values were also compared between RYGB and VSG. RESULTS: There were no significant differences between preoperative and postoperative values for any nutritional marker aside from vitamin B12. A total of 51/60 patients (85.0%) had normal preoperative B12 measurements, compared with 40/65 (61.5%) patients postoperatively (P = 0.03). Notably, of 25 "abnormal" postoperative measurements, 20 (80%) were elevated values. There were no differences in postoperative deficiencies between RYGB and VSG. CONCLUSIONS: Patients in our sample did not have worsened micronutrient deficiencies following bariatric surgery, and there were no differences in micronutrient deficiencies between surgical technique.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bariatric procedures increase patient risk of long-term metabolic complications primarily due to nutrient deficiencies. The mainstay of prevention includes routine vitamin and mineral supplementation; however, patient-reported barriers to daily compliance are poorly understood. METHODS: Post-bariatric surgery patients electively participated in an 11-point outpatient survey at a single academic institution. Surgical procedures included either laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or gastric bypass (GB). At the time of survey, patients ranged from 1-month to 15 years from surgery. Survey items consisted of dichotomous (yes/no), multiple choice, and open-ended free response questions. Descriptive statistics were evaluated. RESULTS: Two hundred and fourteen responses were collected, 116 (54%) underwent SG and 98 (46%) underwent GB. Of these, 49% of samples were during short-term postoperative follow-up visits (0-3 months), 34% intermediate follow-up (4-12 months), and 17% long-term follow-up (> 1 year). A total of 98% of patients reported that insurance did not cover their supplement cost. Most patients reported current vitamin use (95%), with 87% reporting daily compliance. Daily compliance was observed in 94%, 79%, and 73% of SG patients at short-, intermediate-, and long-term follow-up visits, respectively. While GB patients reported daily compliance in 84%, 100%, and 92% of short, intermediate, and long-term responses. Of those who were unable to take vitamins daily, non-compliance was attributed most to forgetting (54%), and less often to side effects (11%), or taste (11%). Patient-reported strategies for remembering to take vitamins included tying into daily routine (55%), use of a pill box (7%), and alarm reminders (7%). CONCLUSIONS: Daily compliance with post-bariatric surgery vitamin supplementation does not appear to vary based on postoperative time-period or surgical procedure. While a minority of patients struggle with daily compliance, factors associated with non-compliance include patient forgetting, side effects, and taste. Widespread utilization of patient-reported daily reminder strategies may lead to improved overall compliance and reduce incidence of nutritional deficiencies.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Thoracic and foregut operations can cause vagal nerve injury resulting in delayed gastric emptying or gastroparesis. However, the cause of gastroparesis in these patients is not always from a vagal injury. We hypothesize that vagal nerve integrity (VNI) testing may better define who has vagal nerve dysfunction. This information may change subsequent operations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of VNI testing in patients with prior thoracic or gastric surgery. METHODS: From January 2014 to December 2017, patients who had previous operations with the potential risk of vagal injury and had VNI testing were reviewed. Excluded patients were those with no plan for a second operation or the second operation was only for gastroparesis. The main outcome was the percentage of operations altered due to the results of VNI testing. RESULTS: Twelve patients (eight females) were included. Ages ranged from 37 to 77 years. VNI results were compatible with vagal injury in eight patients (67%). VNI test results altered subsequent operative plans in 41.7% (5/12). Pyloroplasty was done in addition to fundoplication in two patients. Plans for hiatal hernia repair with or without redo-fundoplication in three patients were changed by an additional pyloroplasty in one patient and partial gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction in two patients. All patients who had secondary surgery had resolution of symptoms and improvement in objective testing. CONCLUSION: The addition of VNI testing in patients with a previous potential risk of vagal nerve injury may help the surgeon select the appropriate secondary operation.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: With obesity continuing as a global epidemic and therapeutic technologies advancing, several novel endoscopic and minimally invasive interventions will likely become available as treatment options. With improved technologies and different treatment strategies, as well as different patient populations being targeted, there will be greater application in the treatment armamentarium of specialists dedicated to treating obesity. We sought to review the existing technology and provide a review. METHODS: Literature review was carried out for endoscopic and minimally invasive devices. Some of these products are not FDA approved, so limited data are available in their review. RESULTS: A summary of the device and data currently available on weight loss and safety profile is provided. Several products are in clinical trials or will be soon. Some of the technology has limited data and companies will be submitting their results for FDA evaluation. CONCLUSIONS: The obesity epidemic and associated weight-related diseases represent a tremendous burden to health care practitioners. As such, a multi-modal and progressive approach, with data and outcomes examined, is likely the best and most comprehensive method to care for these patients. SAGES endorses the benefits of minimally invasive and endoscopic approaches in the treatment of obesity and its related co-morbidities.

RESUMO

Obesity remains a major medical disease that often requires surgical intervention in morbidly obese patients. Surgical procedures have evolved and are performed routinely in most major medical centers. Outcomes are often dependent on patient characteristics, type of procedure, and preoperative planning. Risk stratification often depends on screening and optimizing known comorbidities often encountered in this patient population. A thorough understanding of the physiologic changes seen in obese patient and the commonly performed operations will allow the physician to perform optimal treatment strategies.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Surgical management of medically refractory gastroparesis remains a challenge. Case series and small retrospective studies describe clinical benefits from surgical intervention; however, no study reports the efficacy of gastric electrical stimulation (GES) or Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy with or without near-total gastrectomy (RYGJ) in morbidly obese patients with severe gastroparesis. METHODS: A chart review was performed on all morbidly obese patients (BMI > 35 kg/m(2)) who underwent GES or RYGJ for medically refractory gastroparesis from March 2002 to December 2012 at the Cleveland Clinic. The main outcomes examined were symptom improvement, postoperative complications, and change in BMI. RESULTS: A total of 20 morbidly obese patients underwent GES placement. Seven morbidly obese patients had RYGJ with or without resection of the remnant stomach surgery. All operations were completed laparoscopically. In GES group, 18 patients had initial symptom improvement (90%) and 11 (55%) rated their symptom improved at the last follow-up. During the average 23 months' follow-up, 9 patients (45%) experienced at least one readmission for gastrointestinal reasons. Early complications included two infections at a simultaneously placed J-tube site and one seroma. In the RYGJ group, all patients, including 4 patients who failed GES and subsequently converted to RYGJ, experienced short-term symptom improvement and 5 patients (71%) rated their symptoms as improved at last follow-up. One duodenal stump leak happened in the RYGJ group. There were no 30-day mortalities in either group. The BMI change after GES implantation was 0.6 ± 4 kg/m(2) versus -7.7 ± 4 kg/m(2) after RYGJ (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: GES implantation and RYGJ are both effective in terms of symptom control for medically refractory gastroparesis in morbidly obese. Both options can be performed in a minimally invasive fashion with low morbidity. Patients who have no improvement of symptoms for refractory gastroparesis after GES implantation can be successfully converted laparoscopically to RYGJ.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Weight regain or insufficient loss after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is common. This is partially attributable to dilatation of the gastrojejunostomy (GJ), which diminishes the restrictive capacity of RYGB. Endoluminal interventions for GJ reduction are being explored as alternatives to revision surgery. We performed a randomized, blinded, sham-controlled trial to evaluate weight loss after sutured transoral outlet reduction (TORe). METHODS: Patients with weight regain or inadequate loss after RYGB and GJ diameter greater than 2 cm were assigned randomly to groups that underwent TORe (n = 50) or a sham procedure (controls, n = 27). Intraoperative performance, safety, weight loss, and clinical outcomes were assessed. RESULTS: Subjects who received TORe had a significantly greater mean percentage weight loss from baseline (3.5%; 95% confidence interval, 1.8%-5.3%) than controls (0.4%; 95% confidence interval, 2.3% weight gain to 3.0% weight loss) (P = .021), using a last observation carried forward intent-to-treat analysis. As-treated analysis also showed greater mean percentage weight loss in the TORe group than controls (3.9% and 0.2%, respectively; P = .014). Weight loss or stabilization was achieved in 96% subjects receiving TORe and 78% of controls (P = .019). The TORe group had reduced systolic and diastolic blood pressure (P < .001) and a trend toward improved metabolic indices. In addition, 85% of the TORe group reported compliance with the healthy lifestyle eating program, compared with 53.8% of controls; 83% of TORe subjects said they would undergo the procedure again, and 78% said they would recommend the procedure to a friend. The groups had similar frequencies of adverse events. CONCLUSIONS: A multicenter randomized trial provides Level I evidence that TORe reduces weight regain after RYGB. These results were achieved using a superficial suction-based device; greater levels of weight loss could be achieved with newer, full-thickness suturing devices. TORe is one approach to avoid weight regain; a longitudinal multidisciplinary approach with dietary counseling and behavioral changes are required for long-term results.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the long-term effects of bariatric surgery on type 2 diabetes (T2DM) remission and metabolic risk factors. BACKGROUND: Although the impressive antidiabetic effects of bariatric surgery have been shown in short- and medium-term studies, the durability of these effects is uncertain. Specifically, long-term remission rates following bariatric surgery are largely unknown. METHODS: Clinical outcomes of 217 patients with T2DM who underwent bariatric surgery between 2004 and 2007 and had at least 5-year follow-up were assessed. Complete remission was defined as glycated hemoglobin (A1C) less than 6% and fasting blood glucose (FBG) less than 100 mg/dL off diabetic medications. Changes in other metabolic comorbidities, including hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetic nephropathy, were assessed. RESULTS: At a median follow-up of 6 years (range: 5-9) after surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, n = 162; gastric banding, n = 32; sleeve gastrectomy, n = 23), a mean excess weight loss (EWL) of 55% was associated with mean reductions in A1C from 7.5% ± 1.5% to 6.5% ± 1.2% (P < 0.001) and FBG from 155.9 ± 59.5 mg/dL to 114.8 ± 40.2 mg/dL (P < 0.001). Long-term complete and partial remission rates were 24% and 26%, respectively, whereas 34% improved (>1% decrease in A1C without remission) from baseline and 16% remained unchanged. Shorter duration of T2DM (P < 0.001) and higher long-term EWL (P = 0.006) predicted long-term remission. Recurrence of T2DM after initial remission occurred in 19% and was associated with longer duration of T2DM (P = 0.03), less EWL (P = 0.02), and weight regain (P = 0.015). Long-term control rates of low high-density lipoprotein, high low-density lipoprotein, high triglyceridemia, and hypertension were 73%, 72%, 80%, and 62%, respectively. Diabetic nephropathy regressed (53%) or stabilized (47%). CONCLUSIONS: Bariatric surgery can induce a significant and sustainable remission and improvement of T2DM and other metabolic risk factors in severely obese patients. Surgical intervention within 5 years of diagnosis is associated with a high rate of long-term remission.

RESUMO

A 49-year-old woman presented with a 3-month history of nausea, vomiting, and weight loss. Her symptoms were severe, and she required total parenteral nutrition for nutrition support. Both CT and barium upper GI series demonstrated a large "windsock" diverticulum that obstructed the duodenal lumen. The patient was referred to undergo a surgical diverticulectomy. After a multidisciplinary discussion, a less invasive endoscopic diverticulotomy was recommended, and the patient agreed. The linked video demonstrates the endoscopic findings and therapeutic technique. Upper endoscopy showed the diverticulum arising from the proximal duodenum. The scope could not traverse the true lumen due to compression by the diverticulum. A guidewire was passed to delineate the true lumen. At that point, the diverticulum spontaneously inverted into a proximal position. The tip of the diverticulum was then clipped to the duodenal wall to increase exposure and to allow a more controlled incision. Clips were placed on the vascular pedicle of the diverticulum to prevent bleeding. An incremental incision was performed using a needle-knife to divide the diverticulum completely. Mild bleeding occurred twice and was managed with clips. A complete diverticulotomy was accomplished, allowing easy passage of the endoscope. The patient had an uneventful postprocedural recovery and was discharged the same day with instructions for dietary advancement. After 2 months, the patient reported complete symptom resolution. She was eating well, had gained weight, and had discontinued total parenteral nutrition. A repeat endoscopy confirmed a patent lumen and no recurrence of the diverticulum. This case demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of endoscopic diverticulotomy performed from a proximally inverted position. This "top-down" approach provided very good exposure for the incision and easy treatment of bleeding complications.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Recent enthusiasm in the surgical community for less invasive surgical approaches has resulted in widespread application of single-incision techniques. This has been most commonly applied in laparoscopic cholecystectomy in general surgery. Cosmesis appears to be improved, but other advantages remain to be seen. Feasibility has been demonstrated, but there is little description in the current literature regarding complications. PATIENT AND METHODS: We report the case of a patient who previously underwent single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy for symptomatic gallstone disease. After a brief symptom-free interval, she developed acute pancreatitis. At evaluation, imaging results of ultrasonography and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography demonstrated a retained gallbladder with cholelithiasis. The patient was subsequently referred to our hospital, where she underwent further evaluation and surgical intervention. RESULTS: Our patient underwent 4-port laparoscopic remnant cholecystectomy with transcystic common bile duct exploration. Operative exploration demonstrated a large remnant gallbladder and a partially obstructed cystic duct with many stones. Transcystic exploration with balloon extraction resulted in duct clearance. The procedure took 75 minutes, with minimal blood loss. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful. Final pathology results demonstrated a remnant gallbladder with cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. CONCLUSION: This report is the first in the literature to describe successful laparoscopic remnant cholecystectomy and transcystic common bile duct exploration after previous single-port cholecystectomy. Although inadvertent partial cholecystectomy is not unique to this technique, single-port laparoscopic procedures may result in different and significant complications.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: In the United States, recreational and medicinal cannabis use has continually increased in recent years, including in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. However, the effects of cannabis use on morbidity and mortality after bariatric surgery are uncertain, and the literature is limited by a paucity of studies. This study intends to evaluate the effects of cannabis use disorder on outcomes in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The National Inpatient Sample 2016-2019 was queried for patients ≥ 18 years who underwent roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB), vertical sleeve gastrectomy (VSG), or adjustable gastric band (AGB) surgery. Cannabis use disorder was identified using ICD-10 coding. Three outcomes were evaluated: medical complications, in-hospital mortality, and length of stay. Logistic regression was used to evaluate effects of cannabis use disorder on medical complications and in-hospital mortality, and linear regression for length of stay. All models controlled for race, age, sex, income, procedure type, and various medical comorbidities. RESULTS: A total of 713,290 patients were included in this study, with 1,870 (0.26%) having cannabis use disorder. Cannabis use disorder was associated with medical complications (OR: 2.24; 95% CI: 1.31-3.82; P = 0.003) and longer lengths of stay (ß: 1.3; SE: 0.297; P < 0.001), but not in-hospital mortality (OR: 3.29; CI: 0.94-11.5); P = 0.062). CONCLUSIONS: Severe cannabis use was associated with higher risk for complications and extended length of stay. Future investigations are needed to better elucidate the relationship between cannabis use and bariatric surgery, including effects of dosage, chronicity, and method of ingestion.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Obesity is a risk factor for gastroesophageal reflux disease and hiatal hernia. Studies have demonstrated poor symptom control in obese patients undergoing fundoplication. The ideal operation remains elusive. However, addressing both obesity and the anatomic abnormality should be the goal. METHODS: This study retrospectively identified 19 obese (body mass index [BMI], >30 kg/m(2)) and morbidly obese (BMI, >40 kg/m(2)) patients who presented between December 2007 and November 2011 for management of large or recurrent paraesophageal hernia. All the patients underwent a combined primary paraesophageal hernia repair and longitudinal gastrectomy. Charts were retrospectively reviewed to collect preoperative, operative, and short-term postoperative results. Quantitative data were analyzed using Student's t test and qualitative data with χ(2) testing. RESULTS: Laparoscopy was successful for all 19 patients. The mean preoperative BMI was 37.8 ± 4.1 kg/m(2), and the mean operative time was 236 ± 80 min. Preoperative endoscopy showed that 5 patients who had undergone prior fundoplication experienced anatomic failures, whereas the remaining 14 patients had type 3 and one type 4 paraesophageal Hernia. Mesh was used to reinforce the hiatus in 15 of the 19 cases. The postoperative complications included pulmonary embolism (n = 1) and pulmonary decompensation (n = 2) due to underlying chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The mean hospital stay was 5.3 ± 3 days. Upper gastrointestinal esophagography was performed for all the patients, with no short-term recurrence of paraesophageal hernia. Weight loss was seen for all the patients during the first month, with a mean BMI drop of 2.7 ± 1 kg/m(2). All the patients experienced near to total resolution of their preoperative symptoms within the first month. CONCLUSION: Combined laparoscopic paraesophageal hernia repair and longitudinal gastrectomy offer a safe and feasible approach for the management of large or recurrent paraesophageal hernias in well-selected obese and morbidly obese patients. In a short-term follow-up period, this approach demonstrated effective symptom control and weight loss.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: There has been recent interest in using robots for general surgical procedures. This shift in technique raises the issue of patient safety with automated instrumentation. Although the safety of robotics has been established for urologic procedures, there are scant data on its use in general surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to analyze the incidence of robotic malfunction and its consequences for general surgical procedures. METHODS: All robotic general surgical procedures performed at a tertiary center between 2008 and 2011 were reviewed from institutional review board (IRB)-approved prospective databases. RESULTS: A total of 223 cases were done robotically, including 102 endocrine, 83 hepatopancreaticobiliary, 17 upper gastrointestinal, and 21 lower gastrointestinal colorectal procedures. There were 10 cases of robotic malfunction (4.5%). These failures were related to robotic instruments (n = 4), optical system (n = 3), robotic arms (n = 2), and robotic console (n = 1). None of these failures led to adverse patient consequences or conversion to open. Six (2.7%) cases were converted to open due to bleeding (n = 3), difficult dissection plane (n = 1), invasion of tumor to surrounding structures (n = 1), and intolerance of pneumoperitoneum due to CO(2) retention (n = 1). There was no mortality, and morbidity was 1% (n = 2). CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the largest North American report to date on robotic general surgical procedures. Our results show that robotic malfunction occurs in a minority of cases, with no adverse consequences. We believe that awareness of these failures and knowing how to troubleshoot are important to maintain the efficiency of these procedures.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Interest in single-incision laparoscopic techniques continues to grow. A learning curve certainly exists, and although the techniques have improved, technical considerations including external clashes, poor visualization of critical structures, and surgeon fatigue remain. Applications of robotics to these newer techniques are evolving. The da Vinci Single-Site robotic surgery platform is a new semi-rigid robotic operative system designed to work with the Intuitive Surgical da Vinci Si operative system. The authors present the first human experience with this new device used to perform single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy. This study aimed to present the first human experience performing cholecystectomy with a novel robotic single-port platform. METHODS: After Cleveland Clinic Institutional Review Board approval, patients with symptomatic biliary disease fitting standard criteria for cholecystectomy were enrolled in the study. A total of 13 consecutive single-port, robotic cholecystectomy operations were performed. Patient demographics and operative results were evaluated. RESULTS: All 13 operations were completed successfully with the Single-Site platform. A critical view of safety as determined by the operative surgeon was obtained in all cases. One patient required placement of an additional extra-umbilical trocar for appropriate visualization secondary to gallbladder necrosis, and this incision also was used for eventual drain placement. For two patients, an intraoperative choloangiogram was performed. The mean operative time was 107 ± 54 min, and the mean docking time was 15 ± 9 min. Discharge for 11 patients was within 24 h. No significant complications occurred. CONCLUSION: Cholecystectomy using the da Vinci Single-Site system is feasible. Availability of this new semi-rigid, robotic surgery platform may increase access to the potential advantages of single-site surgery. Additional advantages of single-site surgery may be elucidated with further studies.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Significant weight regain occurs for 10% to 20% of patients after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Potential causative factors include anatomic abnormalities such as enlargement of the gastric pouch and gastrojejunostomy (GJ). This report describes endoscopic findings for patients referred for investigation of weight regain and presents the outcomes of revisional therapy for patients with abnormal anatomy. METHODS: To evaluate gastric pouch and stoma size, RYGB patients referred for weight regain underwent upper endoscopy. A GJ was defined as enlarged if it had a diameter greater than 2 cm in any dimension, and a pouch was defined as enlarged if its length exceeded 6 cm long or its width exceeded 5 cm. Patients with abnormal anatomy who subsequently underwent revisional procedures were arbitrarily categorized into three groups based on the interval from RYGB to endoscopic evaluation: less than 5 years (group 1), 5 to 10 years (group 2), longer than 10 years (group 3). The percentage of regained weight lost (%RWL) after revision was compared between the groups. RESULTS: In this study, 205 RYGB patients (176 women with a mean age of 47 ± 10 years and a current body mass index [BMI] of 43.4 ± 8.4 kg/m(2)) were evaluated. The mean time from primary RYGB was 6.9 ± 3.7 years, and the increase in BMI from its nadir was 9.78 ± 5.80 kg/m(2). Abnormal endoscopic findings (n = 146, 71.2%) included large GJ (n = 86, 58.9%), large pouch (n = 42, 28.8%), or both (n = 18, 12.3%). Of the 205 patients, 51 (24.9%) underwent a revisional surgical or endoluminal procedure. At a mean follow-up assessment 13 months after revision, group 1 (n = 12) had a mean %RWL of 103% ± 89.3%, and 62% of these patients lost all their regained weight. The mean %RWL was 45% ± 12.6% in group 2 (n = 30) and 40% ± 13.6% in group 3 (n = 9). CONCLUSION: Endoscopy is a valuable tool for evaluating weight regain after bariatric surgery that can identify abnormal post-RYGB anatomy in a majority of patients. Revisional procedures to restore normal RYGB anatomy appear to be most successful if performed within 5 years after the primary procedure.

RESUMO

Herniorrhaphy continues to be one of the most commonly performed operations worldwide. As the literature shows, there is a clear advantage to tension-free mesh reinforcement versus primary suture repair alone in most settings. The choice of medical implant is based on many factors, including type and location of hernia, host environment, efficacy with product utilization, and total cost. The use of prosthetic implants has evolved over the years from "first-generation" synthetic materials to "third-generation" biologic grafts. In this review, we report on various biologic materials used in the repair of ventral, inguinal, and hiatal hernias. Despite an ever-expanding selection of products, there is currently no consensus on when or how to use them, and no long-term data exist regarding the effect of implantation. The goal of this study is to highlight the current indications for bioprosthetic materials used in hernia repair, as well as the reported short- and long-term effects of implantation.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pancreaticoduodenectomy remains the mainstay of surgical treatment of malignant periampullary disorders. Postoperative morbidity rates are driven by postoperative pancreatic fistula. Although most can be managed conservatively or with percutaneous techniques, complex fistulas including gastroenteric leakage frequently require operative reexploration. Endoscopic therapies in this setting offer an opportunity to avoid invasive reoperation. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 67-year-old male individual who developed a complex intra-abdominal abscess after pancreaticoduodenectomy with confirmed pancreaticojejunal disruption, gastric staple line dehiscence, and enterocutaneous fistula. Five endoscopic sessions utilizing advanced techniques over a period of 60 days led to complete healing of the patient's external fistula, resolution of complex abdominal abscess, creation of functional communication between the gastric staple line disruption and the afferent jejunum, and return of normal gastrointestinal function. Baseline functional and dietary status was restored without gastrointestinal symptoms or necessity for supplemental tube feedings.
