Summary

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the actual size and area of the remnant stomach, as measured by Upper gastrointestinal tract radiography, on weight loss after LSG.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: From May 2017 to December 2019, 56 patients with morbid obesity were admitted to the Department of Medical and Surgical Sciences, University of Foggia and underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

UGI tract radiography was performed on day two after the operation to rule out leakage.
