Study Arms (2)

Single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass

EXPERIMENTAL

A Single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass procedure is performed.

Procedure: Single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass

Sleeve gastrectomy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

A sleeve gastrectomy procedure is performed.

Procedure: Sleeve gastrectomy

Interventions

The abdominal cavity is entered directly (visual trocar) with or without the use of Verres needle. A 6-port set up and a liver retractor is utilized. A sleeve gastrectomy is performed as described below, but division of the stomach starts 6 cm proximal to the pylorus. The small bowel is measured 300cm from the ileocecal valve, with the small bowel stretched and markers placed on the graspers, and connected to the antrum of the stomach with a 45mm stapler. The anastomosis is positioned slightly ventral on the antrum. A 12 mm port positioned left to the midline is used for introduction of the stapler, which is directed distally from the patient's left to right side. 3.0 cm of 45 mm stapler is used the anastomosis; completed with a 2-0 PDS running suture. The biliopancreatic limb is anchored to the sleeve 4 cm proximal to the anastomosis (non-resorbable V-loc 3-0). Fascia defect is closed for the port where the specimen is extracted. The mesenteric defect is not closed.

Also known as: SASI
Single anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass

In the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, the abdominal cavity is entered directly with a visual trocar with or without the use of Verres needle. The set up includes a total of 5 ports. The Natanson liver retractor is utilized. The greater omentum is separated from the major side of the stomach from the pylorus to the angle of His. The left crus is visualized and the hiatus is inspected for the presence of hernia. A 36 French bougie is introduced and the stomach is divided along this from 4-5cm proximal to the pylorus to 1cm lateral to the angle of His using two purple cartridges (Medtronic Tri-Staple™ technology) followed by beige 60mm cartridges to the angle of His, 1 cm lateral to the esophagus. The sleeve is tested for leaks with instillation of 50ml methylene blue in the tube. The fascia defect is closed with suture for the port site where the specimen is extracted.

Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Morbid obesity at referral for bariatric surgery (i.e. a body-mass index \[BMI\] of ≥35 kg/m2 with obesity-related comorbid conditions or ≥40 kg/m2 with or without such comorbidities).
  • Age 20-60 years.
  • Previous failed attempts of weight loss.
  • Norwegian speaking patients.

You may not qualify if:

  • BMI ≥55 kg/m2.
  • A history of major abdominal or bariatric surgery (excluding appendectomy, cholecystectomy, and sectio).
  • Established disabling cardiopulmonary disease, ongoing treatment for cancer, long-term steroid use, and conditions believed to be associated with poor adherence after surgery.
  • Previous or current gastroesophageal reflux symptoms with daily use of antireflux medication. Patients are also excluded if preoperative manometry identifies a hiatal hernia (≥4cm in axial length) or if preoperative upper endoscopy identifies esophagitis grade C or D (LA classification), peptic stricture, Barrett's esophagus, or esophageal carcinoma.
  • Achalasia
  • Pregnancy.
