Gastric Sleeve surgery, also known as gastric reduction , gastric sleeve resection, vertical sleeve gastrectomy and vertical gastroplasty, is a relatively new form of weight-loss surgery that has gained popularity in Mexico and United States in the recent years with many weight loss surgery patients finding success in the procedure as an alternative to laparoscopic gastric band surgery. Gastric Sleeve Surgery corresponds to the first step in the restrictive part for Duodenal Switch, which is a combined procedure so restrictive as Malabsorptive performed in super obese patients.
Gastric Sleeve started to perform in patients with high surgical risk to a duodenal switch could be carried full and they only performed the gastric or restrictive (gastric sleeve surgery, or gastric resection sleeve), without making the Mal absorptive or (duodenal switch). In the long-term observation of patients, we have seen that they lose all their weight without requiring the Malabsorptive Duodenal Switch, for that reason, the Gastric sleeve is considered the gold standard in bariatric surgery, because the patient remains free of long-term overweight as well as associated diseases, such as: diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, etc

Since only a few cases completed the bad absorptive part of the Duodenal Switch, those patients who had a plateau of their weight loss after 12 to 18 months performed the gastric sleeve.
Revision Surgery
ReplyDeleteThe incidence of morbid obesity and its surgical treatment have been increasing over the last few years.
With this increase, there has been a rise in the number of patients who have had less than desirable outcome after bariatric operations, such as: Gastric Bypass or Sleeve Gastrectomy, in which case, there are other viable options to perform on failed attempts to lose weight as the Lap-band or Duodenal Switch.
Gastric Bypass
Patients generally seek revision weight loss surgery for two reasons:
1) Failure to lose adequate weight and/or weight regain,
2) medical complications (medical complications after Gastric Bypass may lead to failure). Failure after Gastric Bypass may be due to mechanical or metabolic reasons; the eating behaviors of a patient should be considered as well.
Mini Gastric Bypass
Revision of Mini Gastric Bypass operations are the same as for Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass. Bile reflux is a potential condition unique to this type of Gastric Bypass.
Lap-band as a revisional procedure
The gastric band has the advantage of being a less technically demanding revisional surgery, reportedly safe and with a low rate of morbidity. Malnutrition is not a concern, and resulting weight loss is substantial.
Duodenal Switch as a revisional procedure
Conversion from Gastric Bypass to Duodenal Switch is the most definitive revision procedure for inadequate weight loss or weight regain after Gastric Bypass. This approach addresses the issues of metabolic failure and maladaptive eating as causes of failure.
