Small size of the upper pouch has been considered mandatory for good weight loss after different gastric operations for extreme obesity. In most published series the estimates of upper pouch size seem to have been subjective. The present report concerns gastric banding in 18 patients, with standardized objective measurement of the upper pouch made after subjective estimation independently by two bariatrically trained surgeons. The subjective determination resulted in statistically significant underestimation compared with the objective procedure. For adequate evaluation of the surgical method, therefore, it is important to measure the pouch size objectively.
对于极度肥胖患者进行的不同胃部手术，较小的上胃囊被认为是实现良好体重减轻的必要条件。在大多数已发表的系列研究中，对上胃囊大小的估计似乎是主观的。本报告涉及18例胃束带手术患者，由两名接受过减重手术培训的外科医生在主观估计后对上胃囊进行了标准化客观测量。与客观测量方法相比，主观判断导致了具有统计学意义的低估。因此，为了充分评估手术方法，客观测量胃囊大小很重要。
