Sleeve gastrectomy for morbid obesity – regional experience

[Original research] [Surgery]
Bekhan Khatsiev; Alexander Kuzminov;

This paper summarizes experience of 116 sleeve gastrectomies performed in Stavropol for the last three years. Average operative time was 110±51 minutes. Complication rate was 6.9 % with no mortality. 5 (4.3 %) patients were reoperated due to complications. Staple line leakage rate was 1.7 %.

Average excessive weight loss in 12 months after the surgery egualled operation was 57.3 % with a regain up to 48.3 % two years after the primary procedure. Sleeve gastrectomy demonstrated high efficacy in treatment of 2nd type diabetes mellitus resolving it in all followed up patients. 5 pregnancies in previously infertile patients were reported.

Therefore, this operation may be recommended as standalone primary bariatric procedure.
