Postoperative leaks are a dreaded complication after bariatric surgery (BS). Its treatment is based on nutritional support and sepsis control by antibiotics, collections drainage and/or prosthesis, and/or surgery.
The aim of this study is to report our experience with coated self-expandable endoscopic stents (SEES) for leaks treatment.
This study was performed in a University Hospital, (censored).
We performed a retrospective analysis of our BS database from January 2007 to December 2013. All patients with leak after BS treated with SEES were included.
We identified 29 patients; 17 (59%) were women, with median age of 37 (19-65) years, and preoperative body mass index of 40 (28.7-56-6) kg/m(2). Nineteen (65.5%) patients had a sleeve gastrectomy and 10 (34.5%) a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. All patients had a leak in the stapler line. Median time from surgery to leak diagnosis was 7 (1-51) days, and SEES were installed 8 (0-104) days after diagnosis. Twenty-one (72%) patients also had abdominal exploration. Median length of SEES use was 60 (1-299) days. Patients who had SEES as primary treatment (with or without simultaneous reoperation) had a shorter leak closure time (50 [6-112] vs 109 [60-352] days; p = 0.008). Twenty-eight (96.5%) patients successfully achieved leak closure with SEES. There were 16 migrations in 10 (34%) patients, 1 (3%) stent fracture, 1 opening of the blind end of alimentary limb (3%), and 5 patients (17%) required a second stent due to leak persistence.
SEES is a feasible, safe, and effective management of post BS leaks, although patients may also require prosthesis revision and abdominal exploration. Primary SEES placement is associated with a shorter leak resolution time.
术后渗漏是减重手术(BS)后令人恐惧的并发症。其治疗基于营养支持以及通过抗生素控制感染、引流积液和/或置入假体和/或进行手术。
本研究旨在报告我们使用带涂层的自膨式内镜支架(SEES)治疗渗漏的经验。
本研究在一家大学医院(已删节)进行。
我们对2007年1月至2013年12月期间的BS数据库进行了回顾性分析。纳入所有接受SEES治疗的BS术后渗漏患者。
我们确定了29例患者;17例(59%)为女性,中位年龄37岁(19 - 65岁),术前体重指数为40(28.7 - 56.6)kg/m²。19例(65.5%)患者接受了袖状胃切除术,10例(34.5%)接受了Roux - Y胃旁路术。所有患者均在吻合器缝合线处发生渗漏。从手术到渗漏诊断的中位时间为7天(1 - 51天),诊断后8天(0 - 104天)置入SEES。21例(72%)患者还进行了腹部探查。SEES使用的中位时长为60天(1 - 299天)。以SEES作为主要治疗手段(无论是否同时再次手术)的患者渗漏闭合时间较短(50天[6 - 112天]对109天[60 - 352天];p = 0.008)。28例(96.5%)患者通过SEES成功实现渗漏闭合。10例(34%)患者发生16次支架移位,1例(3%)支架断裂,1例(3%)消化道肢体盲端开口,5例(17%)患者因渗漏持续需要置入第二个支架。
SEES是一种可行、安全且有效的减重手术后渗漏管理方法,尽管患者可能还需要假体修复和腹部探查。初次置入SEES与较短的渗漏解决时间相关。
