Fifty patients underwent gastroplasty for morbid obesity. The follow-up regimen included both nutritional and weight assessment and gastroscopy. Weight loss was satisfactory in patients with gastric stomas less than 9 mm in diameter. Stomal obstruction was endoscopically diagnosed in 5 patients. Endoscopic dilatation was successful in 4 patients. Gastroscopy should thus be a routine postoperative procedure in patients undergoing gastric partitioning for morbid obesity.
五十名病态肥胖患者接受了胃成形术。随访方案包括营养和体重评估以及胃镜检查。胃造口直径小于9毫米的患者体重减轻情况令人满意。5名患者经内镜诊断为造口梗阻。4名患者内镜扩张成功。因此，对于接受病态肥胖胃分隔术的患者，胃镜检查应作为常规术后检查。
