Summary

Staple-line leak is the most frequent and incapacitating complication after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The aim of this prospective randomized trial is to compare the staple-line leak rate after LSG according to the use of a standard bougie calibre (34, 36 or 38 Fr) or 48-Fr, assuming that a higher diameter is correlated with a lower risk of leak, without lowering long-term weight loss.

Conditions

  • Morbid Obesity

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy using 48-Fr bougie

After gastric mobilization, the 48-Fr bougie is inserted through the mouth by the anesthesiologist and positioned in the stomach. Patient is blind to the type of bougie used. Gastrectomy is performed alongside the calibration bougie.

PROCEDURE

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy using standard care bougie

After gastric mobilization, the standard care bougie is inserted through the mouth by the anesthesiologist and positioned in the stomach. Patient is blind to the type of bougie used. Gastrectomy is performed alongside the calibration bougie.
