    Subjective (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease questionnaires - GERD - Q) and objective (24 hour pH study) measurement of occurence of GERD will be done GERD - Q - Score 0-2 denotes no GERD. Score more than or equal to 3 indicates presence of GERD 24 hr pH study - Demeester score more than 14.7 is indicative of presence of GERD

    6 months

Study Arms (2)

LSG

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This group will receive standard laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

Procedure: laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

LSG with LTC

EXPERIMENTAL

This group will receive LSG along with the novel LTC procedure

Procedure: ligamentum teres cardiopexy with sleeve gastrectomy

Interventions

Comparator arm - will receive standard laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

LSG

experimental arm - Ligamentum teres will be divided from umbilicus to up to umbilical fissure. The ligament will then be wrapped around lower esophagus and sutured.
