Weight recidivism after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a common problem. Often, this weight loss failure or regain may be due to a wide gastrojejunostomy (GJ). We evaluated the feasibility and safety of a novel approach of laparoscopic wedge resection of gastrojejunostomy (LWGJ) for a wide stoma after RYGB associated with weight recidivism.
This is a single-center retrospective study of a prospectively collected database. We analyzed outcomes of patients with weight recidivism after RYGB and a documented wide GJ (>2 cm) on imaging, who underwent LWGJ between 11/2013 and 05/2016.
Nine patients underwent LWGJ for dilated stomas. All patients were female with a mean ± SD age of 53 ± 7 years. Mean interval between RYGB and LWGJ was 9 ± 3 years. All cases were performed laparoscopically with no conversions. Mean operative time and hospital stay were 86 ± 9 min and 1.2 ± 0.4 days, respectively. The median(IQR) follow-up time was 14(12-18) months. During follow-up, there were no deaths, postoperative complications, or unplanned readmissions or reoperations. The mean and median(IQR) BMI before RYGB and LWGJ were 55.4 ± 8.1 kg/m and 56.1(47.9-61.7) and 43.4 ± 8.6 kg/m and 42.1(38.3-47.1), respectively. One year after LWGJ, mean and median(IQR) BMI significantly decreased to 34.9 ± 7.3 kg/m and 33.3(31.7-35.0) corresponding to a mean %EWL of 64.6 ± 19.9 (P < 0.05).
LWGJ is safe and can lead to further weight loss in patients experiencing weight recidivism after RYGB with a wide GJ (>2 cm). Long-term follow-up is needed to determine the efficacy and durability of LWGJ and compare its outcomes with other endoscopic/surgical approaches for weight recidivism after RYGB with a documented wide GJ.
Roux-en-Y胃旁路术(RYGB)后体重复发是一个常见问题。通常,这种体重减轻失败或体重反弹可能是由于胃空肠吻合口(GJ)过宽所致。我们评估了一种新型的腹腔镜胃空肠吻合口楔形切除术(LWGJ)治疗RYGB术后因吻合口过宽导致体重复发的可行性和安全性。
这是一项对前瞻性收集数据库进行的单中心回顾性研究。我们分析了RYGB术后体重复发且影像学检查记录有胃空肠吻合口过宽(>2 cm)的患者的结局,这些患者在2013年11月至2016年5月期间接受了LWGJ手术。
9例患者因吻合口扩张接受了LWGJ手术。所有患者均为女性,平均年龄±标准差为53±7岁。RYGB与LWGJ之间的平均间隔时间为9±3年。所有病例均通过腹腔镜完成,无中转开腹。平均手术时间和住院时间分别为86±9分钟和1.2±0.4天。中位(IQR)随访时间为14(12 - 18)个月。随访期间,无死亡、术后并发症、计划外再次入院或再次手术。RYGB和LWGJ术前的平均及中位(IQR)BMI分别为55.4±8.1 kg/m²和56.1(47.9 - 61.7)以及43.4±8.6 kg/m²和42.1(38.3 - 47.1)。LWGJ术后1年,平均及中位(IQR)BMI显著降至34.9±7.3 kg/m²和33.3(31.7 - 35.0),对应的平均%EWL为64.6±19.9(P < 0.05)。
LWGJ是安全的,对于RYGB术后因胃空肠吻合口过宽(>2 cm)导致体重复发的患者可进一步减轻体重。需要长期随访以确定LWGJ的疗效和持久性,并将其结局与其他用于治疗RYGB术后体重复发且有胃空肠吻合口过宽记录的内镜/手术方法进行比较。
