Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of GEA on GERD in patients undergoing VSG. The main question it aims to answer is:

• Does adoption of GEA to VSG reduce the occurrence of GERD? Participants will complete a symptom questionnaire during follow-up visits. All exams are already part of the surgical or GERD follow-up routine.

Researchers will compare with GEA (Group A) and Without GEA (Group B) to see if adopting GEA during VSG reduces the occurrence of GERD.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

gastroenteroanastomosis simultaneous to vertical sleeve gastrectomy

GEA will be held after completion of GV. The small intestine is then measured every 5 cm, measured with the aid of markings on the laparoscopic clamps, and at 280 cm the manual laterolateral gastroileal anastomosis is performed between 4 and 5 cm in an isoperistaltic direction and 3 cm proximally to the pylorus. Then, 40 cm distally to the gastroileoanastomosis, the Roux-en-Y is constructed with a 2-cm diameter lateral-to-side manual anastomosis followed by the transection of the ileal limb segment interposed with the anastomoses.

PROCEDURE

vertical sleeve gastrectomy

VSG will be performed as primary surgery. The greater curvature is released up to the angle of His in order to perform an ascending stapling from 5 cm proximal to the pylorus to 1 cm from the angle of His and guided by a 32 French Fouchet probe. Stapling starts 5 cm from the pylorus and extends to 1 cm from the angle of His. The result is a tube of approximately 150 ml as adapted in consensus.
