Vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) is sometimes associated with complications such as pouch obstruction, dilatation, and gastroesophageal reflux. This occasionally requires surgical revision, in many cases to a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP).
A 47-year-old woman with severe obesity developed severe symptoms of stenosis of the pouch outlet and gastroesophageal reflux 15 years after VBG. Laparoscopic conversion to a RYGBP was performed. At 9-month follow-up, she lost an additional 32 kg and had complete resolution of her reflux.
In this patient, laparoscopic re-operative RYGBP produced additional weight loss, and improved gastroesophageal reflux that occurred many years after having a VBG. Laparoscopic conversion of a VBG to RYGBP is feasible, and may confer the benefits of other minimally invasive abdominal procedures to this high-risk patient group.
垂直束带胃成形术(VBG)有时会伴有诸如胃囊梗阻、扩张及胃食管反流等并发症。这偶尔需要进行手术修正,在许多情况下需转为 Roux-en-Y 胃旁路术(RYGBP)。
一名 47 岁的重度肥胖女性在 VBG 术后 15 年出现胃囊出口狭窄及胃食管反流的严重症状。遂行腹腔镜下转为 RYGBP 手术。在 9 个月的随访中,她又减重 32 千克,且反流症状完全缓解。
对于该患者,腹腔镜再次手术行 RYGBP 实现了额外的体重减轻,并改善了 VBG 术后多年出现的胃食管反流。将 VBG 腹腔镜转为 RYGBP 是可行的,且可能为这一高危患者群体带来其他微创腹部手术的益处。
