ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
As a restrictive procedure, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) relies primarily on the reduction of gastric volume. It has been suggested that an immediate postoperative gastric remnant volume (GRV) may influence long-term results of LSG; however, there are no consensus in this matter. The aim of this study was to assess the reproducibility of different radiographic methods of GRV calculation and evaluate their correlation with the weight loss (WL) after surgery.METHODS:
This retrospective study evaluated 174 patients who underwent LSG in the period from 2014 to 2017. Using UGI, GRV was measured with 3 different mathematical methods by 2 radiologists. Intraobserver and interobserver calculations were made. Correlation between GRV and WL were estimated with calculations percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) and percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) after 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively.RESULTS:
During analysis of intraobserver similarities, the results of ICC calculation showed that reproducibility was good to excellent for all GRV calculation methods. The intraobserver reproducibility for Reader I was highest for cylinder and truncated cone formula and for Reader II for ellipsoid formula. The interobserver reproducibility was highest for ellipsoid formula. Regarding correlation between GRV and WL, significant negative correlation has been shown on the 12th month after LSG in %TWL and %EWL for every method of GRV calculation, most important for ellipsoid formula (%TWL - r(X,Y) = -0.335, p < 0.001 and %EWL - r(X,Y) = -0.373, p < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
Radiographic methods of GRV calculation are characterized by good reproducibility and correlate with the postoperative WL.Palavras-chave
