Summary

This is a monocentric randomized controlled prospective study. A total of 122 patients will be recruited and randomized 1: 1 in the experimental group - Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy and Diaphragmatic Pillar Closure - or in the control group - Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy. At 6 months post surgery a gastroscopy, an oesophageal manometry and a PH-study will be perform to detect de novo GastroEsophageal Reflux Disease and hiatal hernia appearance.

TypeNameDescription
PROCEDUREDPCThe anterior fat pad is dissected until the left crura is visible, pars flaccida is open and the right crura exposed. Phreno-oesophageal ligament is sectioned starting from the right crura. Posterior and anterior vagal nerve are recognized before the oesophageal dissection. An intra-abdominal oesophagus lengths of 2 or 3 cm is obtained in order to reduce tension. Left and right crura are sutured with 2 or 3 non absorbable 2-0 stitches; an additional anterior stitch is posed if necessary to calibrate hiatus size without oesophageal deviation.
PROCEDURELSGAfter omental section close to gastric insertion, gastric stapling is realised with triple line endo stapler (normally 5 or 6 re-loads). The gastrectomy begins 5-6 cm from the pylorus; gastric fundus is totally resected keeping a distance of 5-10 mm from oesophagus. Any bleeding on staple line is controlled with surgical clips or coagulator.
