that include a bariatric physician, bariatric surgeon, pulmonologist, cardiologist, anaesthesiologist, and as indicated by other consultants. Bariatric Physician sees the patient initially and obtains a detailed history and does an examination with emphasis on determining any risk factors and comorbid conditions usually asso­ciated with obesity such as diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, liver disorders, bleeding disorders, polycystic ovarian disease, Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other social, physical, psychological and economic problems. Preoperative laboratory investigations include but are not limited to complete blood count, blood tests that include electrolytes, urea, glucose, and cal­cium levels. Liver function tests, including Bilirubin, protein, Albumin is routinely determined. Lipid Profile, thyroid profile, HbA-1c, C-peptide, serology-HIV, and Hepatitis B and C tests are done. Radiological investigations include chest x-rays, abdominal CT scan, and Ultrasound. Electrocardiography, echocardiography, pul­monary function tests and arterial blood gas are routinely done. All the investiga­tions are reviewed by the surgeon and/or a member of the multi-disciplinary team to make sure the patient is a safe and good candidate for surgery.
Once the patient and the surgeon have decided on the operation to be done, the patient consents for surgery. Consent is also obtained from all patients to use their redacted information for analysis, presentation, and publications as needed. Patients are admitted the day before surgery and are kept on a clear liquid diet and then NPO for at least six hours before the operation. All patients get a dose of prophylactic antibiotics preoperatively. Compression devices are used during the operation. Ambulation is initiated within four hours of return of the patient from surgery. All patients get low molecular weight heparin prophylaxis for 24 hour or until the patient is ambulating frequently. In high risks patients, this prophylaxis is continued for six weeks. Patients are started on sips of water 4 hours after the

surgery and advanced to a liquid diet the following day if vital parameters are nor­mal. Patients are usually discharged on the third postoperative day with instructions on how to advance their diet. All patients are placed on proton pump inhibitors for six months. Vitamins and other mineral supplements are prescribed for life long use. Patients are seen at three months, six months, twelve months, and yearly there­after. Nutritional counseling is done and evaluation of the quality of life and blood chemistries are monitored at six months, 12 months, and yearly thereafter.

4 Results

We have performed a total of 1121 BSG. We have six-year follow up compara­tive data of BSG v LSG for 68 and 152 patients respectively [14]. The groups were extremely well-matched at baseline for all relevant characteristics. Both groups experienced major, durable weight loss throughout 6 years, with significant changes from baseline. While in BSG nadir weight was achieved at 3 years, in LSG nadir it was at 1 year and patients have gradually started gaining weight from thereafter (Table 1). Maximum %EWL achieved was 90% at 3 years in BSG from there on plateaued and %EWL at the end of 6 years in 82.25% whereas in LSG maximum % EWL was at 1 year, plateaued for a year and from 2nd-year patients started regaining weight and at the end of 6 years, %EWL was 50.25%. There is a total of 32% difference in %EWL in BSG v LSG at 6 years (Table 2). Follow up was 70.5% and 64.4% IN BSG AND LSG respectively (Table 3). Failure rate which is defined as % EWL less than 50% at 3 years is 11.1% and 0% and at 6 years is 46.9% and 0% in LSG and BSG respectively (Table 4). Resolution of diabetes was 75.7 and 58%, Hypertension was 64% and 49.1%, OSA was 80% and 55% respectively in BSG and LSG.
Resolution of type 2 diabetes, defined as normal fasting blood glucose levels (110 mg/dL), HbA1C levels below 6.5 mmol/L and no longer taking type 2 dia­betes medications [18].
Remission of hypertension can be defined as systolic and diastolic blood pres­sure <140 mm Hg and 90 mm Hg, respectively, without any medications based on blood pressure monitoring unit [19].
There is no major difference in nutrient deficiencies in both groups. During our 5-year follow-up, no BSG patient underwent any additional operations, whereas 19 SG patients had elective revisional bariatric procedures (3 at 3 yr, 16 at 4 yr), for inadequate weight loss or weight regain. These failed SG operations were con­verted to 11 banded gastric bypasses, 6 one-anastomosis gastric bypasses, and 2 repeat SGs.

5 Band Complications

Of the total 1121 BSG performed at our center band complications were seen in 26(2.3%) patients.

Of the 5 people with band erosion all of them were removed endoscopically and in four patients with band slippage laparoscopic band removal was done. Of six­teen patients with stricture in six band removal was done and converted to gastric bypass, in eight patients laparoscopic band removal was done and in two patients laparoscopic band removal with endoscopic dilatation was done. One patient who had food intolerance issues had the band removed laparoscopically.
6 Weight Loss and Complications After Banded Sleeve
in Other Studied and Comparative Analysis
We have compared this data in terms of excess weight loss and a total percentage of weight loss with other existent studies. At 6 years, the cohort of patients oper­ated at our centre had percentage excess weight loss. The total percentage weight loss at 6 years for the banded group was 82.25 and 50.25% for the non-banded group.
Failure rate which is defined as % EWL less than 50% at 3 years is 11.1% and
0% and at 6 years is 46.9% and 0% in LSG and BSG respectively.
The banded sleeve group maintained much better weight loss which increased
progressively from 3 until 5 years.
M. Bhandari258
In the series on banded sleeve published by Luc Lemmens et al., %EWL at 5 years was 57.8 ± 25 and 86.7 ± 11.9 in the non-banded group and BLSG, respec- tively [13].
These results show that in the non-banded group, 35.2% of the patients have < 50%EWL at the 5 years follow-up, whereas none of the banded sleeves treated patients had < 50%EWL.
In a series published by Jodok Fink et al., he has reported better weight loss by Banded sleeve [20].
Total weight loss in their series was equal in the early follow-up but sig­nificantly better in BSG, 3 and 5 years after surgery (BSG versus SG at 3 yr
38.7% ± 7.8, n = 33 versus 31.9 ± 10.7, n = 33, P = 0.002; BSG versus SG at 5 yr
37.6% ± 8.5, n = 27 versus 29.5 ± 12.9, n = 23, P = 0.008).
We have reported band complications of 2.3%, whereas Lemmens et al. reported band-related complications of 4.1% which required band removal or readjusting.

7 Conclusions

The banded sleeve is a safe and feasible procedure. Considering the excellent weight loss maintenance results seen after the banded sleeve procedure, banding of the sleeve makes sense. We need long term data from multiple institutions on complications from the banded sleeve and its efficacy.
A randomised control trial between banded and non-banded sleeves with long term results will be the key to answers we sought regarding the efficacy and com­plications of banded sleeve.

Buttressing the Sleeve

Safwan Taha

1 Introduction

Ever since staplers were introduced to the gastrointestinal tract surgery arsenal, a vigilant search was started for techniques and\or gadgets that increased their safety [1, 2]. Buttressing the staple line was one of those techniques that drew particular attention from bariatric surgeons who implemented it late in the last century and published data about it in the early 2000s, starting with laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric Bypass (RYGB) [3, 4] and, eventually, laparoscopic sleeve gas­trectomy (LSG) [57] with special emphasis on its two most feared inherent com­plications; bleeding [8, 9] and leak [1012].
Staple line leak post LSG is a potentially serious complication that has been reported in 1.5–3% of cases [13]. It can result in grave morbidities, and even mor­tality, if not promptly recognized and properly managed [14].
The main cause of staple line leak following LSG is the markedly increased intraluminal pressure in the sleeve tube beyond the ability of the staples to hold the integrity of the staple line (also known as burst pressure), resulting in disruption of the staple line and, consequently, leak. This phenomenon was clearly described in several publications that also tested it under controlled environments on animal models both with and without buttressing materials. Most of those studies reported a significantly higher burst pressure for tissues that were reinforced with buttress­ing material [1517], (Fig. 1). It is believed that buttressing achieves this result through distributing the tension across a wider surface area of the gastric edge,

increasing the burst pressure of the staple line beyond that of the gastric body itself in the process [18].

2 Technical Aspects

Technical aspects of the procedure also play a decisive role to its outcome espe­cially when it comes to post-operative leak. Of particular relevance of all those factors is choosing the appropriate staple height that corresponds to the thickness of the part of stomach to be stapled (Table 1), which is why all manufacturers pro­vide their recommendations for the staple height that is most suitable for deploy­ment on the specific parts of stomach in relation to its tissue thickness [17]. More attention should be paid to this point when the surgeon chooses to use a buttress­ing material, since the latter increases the thickness of the tissue to be buttressed, adding twice the thickness of the buttressing layer to the original tissue thick­ness, with a possible upgrade of the staple height, to make sure that the staples will go through all the four layers, 2 tissue and 2 buttressing, and deploy prop­erly forming the ideal, complete “B” configuration [1821] (Fig. 2). As exam­ples, the bovine pericardial strip (Peri-Strips, Synovis Surgical Innovations) adds a total thickness of 0.8 mm, the absorbable synthetic Polyglycolide/Trimethylene
