NCT06396832

Brief Summary

Metabolic surgery has proven to be an effective treatment for obesity, with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy being the most popular procedure. Omentopexy (OP) is proposed as a strategy to reduce associated complications. Objective was to determine the effectiveness of omentopexy in controlling post-surgical symptoms and to measure the need for re-intervention, leakage, bleeding, and mortality in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Postoperative gastrointestinal symptoms

    patients undergoing sleeve gastrectomy with omentopexy for obesity treatment will be lower compared to those undergoing sleeve gastrectomy without adjuncts.

Study Arms (2)

Patients undergoing gastric sleeve surgery with omentopexy

Omentopexy aims to prevent or reverse sleeve gastrectomy complications, but it is not a standardized technique by itself, with more than 5 descriptions of it. Among the authors who have presented their technique are Sharma, Batman, Pilone, Abou Ashour, Nosrati, and Labib. It consists of fixing the remnant stomach with the gastrosplenic and gastrophrenic ligaments to stabilize the posterior aspect of the stomach and prevent gastric torsion, a functional cause of stenosis

Patients undergoing conventional sleeve gastrectomy

The procedure is associated with other complications, some of which are believed to be related to loss of fixation of the stomach to the greater omentum. Among the main ones is nausea, exacerbation or onset of symptoms due to reflux, as well as intolerance to certain foods and regurgitation
