Short- To Medium-Term Results of Single-Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass Compared With One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass for Weight Recidivism After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

Single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass is a new bariatric and metabolic procedure that has both restrictive and malabsorptive effects. This study was conducted to assess both the efficacy and safety of this procedure in a short-term follow-up. This retrospective cohort study examined weight loss- and obesity-related comorbidities and complications in patients who had undergone SASI bypass from October 2017 to March 2018 at a center of excellence for bariatric/metabolic surgery. Twenty-four patients had undergone SASI bypass due to some existing risk factors of gastric cancer or premalignant lesions in the esophagogastroduodenoscopy. The mean BMI of the patients was 44.2 (median 43.7, range 37.0–54.8) kg/m2. Six and 12 months after surgery, the mean (median) excessive weight loss (EWL) was 67.8% (63.3) and 86.2% (82.9) and total weight loss (TWL) was 28.5% (27.6) and 36.46% (35.8), respectively. Most patients had complete remission in type 2 diabetes mellitus (89%), arterial hypertension (86%), dyslipidemia (100%), obstructive sleep apnea (100%), and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (73%) during the 1 year after surgery. One case of extra-luminal bleeding and one case of trocar site hernia occurred after surgery. Moreover, two patients converted to sleeve gastrectomy because of hypoalbuminemia and EWL about 1 year after SASI. SASI bypass is a newly introduced investigational procedure for improving weight loss and comorbidities; however, it may result in EWL and protein malnutrition and should only be performed for select patients and by well-experienced bariatric surgeons.

1-Year Follow-up of Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal (SASI) Bypass in Morbid Obese Patients: Efficacy and Concerns

BACKGROUND Morbid obesity has been recognized as a public health crisis, particularly in developed countries. Single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass has been introduced as a novel bariatric and metabolic procedure. The present study aimed to describe the technical steps and assess the short-term outcomes of SASI bypass in patients with super morbid obesity. PATIENTS AND METHODS Adult patients of both sexes with body mass index (BMI) ≥50 kg/m underwent SASI bypass and were followed for 12 months postoperatively. Changes in BMI, excess weight loss (EWL), and improvement in comorbidities were recorded on follow-up. RESULTS Twenty patients (17 female) of the mean age of 35.4 years were included in the study. The mean preoperative BMI (53.7±5.9) showed a significant decrease at 6 months (39.9±5.2) and then at 12 months (33.6±6) postoperatively. The mean %EWL was 44.3±7.8 at 6 months and 65.2±12.6 at 12 months. All patients with diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, and reflux esophagitis showed resolution at 12 months after the SASI bypass. Complications were recorded in 2 patients and no mortality was reported. CONCLUSIONS SASI bypass is an effective and safe bariatric procedure that confers significant loss of weight and improvement in medical comorbidities. As compared with previous studies on patients with lower BMI, patients with super morbid obesity attained lower %EWL but similar resolution of diabetes mellitus at 12 months after SASI bypass.

Laparoscopic Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal (SASI) Bypass for Patients With Morbid Obesity: Technical Description and Short-term Outcomes.

Single-anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass is a simplification of sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition. Both share a metabolic foundation through early postprandial ileal brake, and SASI bypass has the advantages of shorter operative time and less incidence of internal herniation. This study evaluates the safety and outcome of SASI bypass with 2-year follow-up. A retrospective cohort study of all patients who underwent SASI bypass in the period between June 2016 and January 2019. The primary outcome was weight loss and diabetic remission. Three hundred twenty-two patients underwent SASI bypass with a mean age of 37.4 ± 15 years and a mean body mass index of 50.1 ± 7.7 kg/m2. Thirteen patients (4%) had early major postoperative complications. The 1-year percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) was 86.9 ± 9.2, and diabetic remission rate was 98.2%. The 2-year %EWL was 96.7 ± 5, and diabetic remission rate was 97.9%. Twenty-six patients had gastroesophageal reflux that improved in 21 (80.7%) patients, remained stationary in 4 (15.4%) patients, and worsened in one patient who required reversal. One patient (0.3%) had severe protein-energy malnutrition and is prepared for reversal. Technical variations had no significant impact on %EWL or diabetic remission. SASI bypass had a promising outcome in terms of 2-year %EWL, diabetic remission, and improvement of preoperative GERD. However, stationary or progressive course of GERD is a substantial possibility. Although the double-outlet for the gastric content allows duodenal access, it may be an obstacle to the standardization of postoperative care. The double-outlet is not a guarantee for absence of malnutrition.

Single-Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal (SASI) Bypass: Hopes and Concerns after a Two-Year Follow-up.

Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity. The present study aimed to assess three bariatric procedures with different mechanisms of actions; sleeve gastrectomy (SG), one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass, in terms of efficacy and safety. This was a retrospective cohort study on patients with morbid obesity who underwent SG, OAGB, or SASI bypass. The main outcome measures were weight loss and improvement in comorbidities at 6 and 12 months postoperatively, and complications. A total of 264 patients (186 female) with mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) of 43.6 ± 9.9 kg/m2were included to the study. Significant weight loss was recorded at 6 and 12 months after the three procedures. At 6 and 12 months postoperatively, body weight and BMI were significantly lower after SASI bypass than after SG and OAGB. The %total weight loss (%TWL) and %excess weight loss (%EWL) were significantly higher after SASI bypass than after SG and OAGB. SASI bypass was associated with a significantly higher rate of improvement in DM than SG and OAGB (97.7% vs 71.4% vs 86.7%; p = 0.04) whereas improvement in other comorbidities was similar. The short-term complication rate was similar between the three procedures, yet SASI bypass was followed by higher long-term complication rate. Based on retrospective review of data, SASI bypass was associated with more reduction in body weight and BMI, higher %TWL and %EWL, better improvement in T2DM, and more long-term nutritional complications than SG and OAGB.

Sleeve Gastrectomy, One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB), and Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal (SASI) Bypass in Treatment of Morbid Obesity: a Retrospective Cohort Study

Single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass is a newly introduced bariatric and metabolic procedure. The present multicenter study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the SASI bypass in the treatment of patients with morbid obesity and the metabolic syndrome. This is a retrospective, seven-country, multicenter study on patients with morbid obesity who underwent the SASI bypass. Data regarding patients’ demographics, body mass index (BMI), percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), and improvement in comorbidities at 12 months postoperatively and postoperative complications were collected. Among 605 patients who underwent the SASI, 54 were excluded and 551 (390; 70.8% female) were included. At 12 months after the SASI, a significant decrease in the BMI was observed (43.2 ± 12.5 to 31.2 ± 9.7 kg/m2; p < 0.0001). The %TWL was 27.4 ± 13.4 and the %EWL was 63.9 ± 29.5. Among the 279 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), complete remission was recorded in 234 (83.9%) patients and partial improvement in 43 (15.4%) patients. Eighty-six (36.1%) patients with hypertension, 104 (65%) patients with hyperlipidemia, 37 (57.8%) patients with sleep apnea, and 70 (92.1%) patients with GERD achieved remission. Fifty-six (10.1%) complications and 2 (0.3%) mortalities were recorded. Most complications were minor. All patients had 12 months follow-up. The SASI bypass is an effective bariatric and metabolic surgery that achieved satisfactory weight loss and improvement in medical comorbidities, including T2DM, hypertension, sleep apnea, and GERD, with a low complication rate.

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Single Anastomosis Sleeve Ileal (SASI) Bypass for Patients with Morbid Obesity: a Multicenter Study.

To examine the prevalence of GAD among people with peptic ulcer disease patients, as well as the sociodemographic differences and risk factors between peptic ulcer disease patients with and without GAD. This research was conducted in Samawa City's Al-Hussein Teaching Hospital. In the examination department, 50 PUD patients (study group) were assessed. A total of 30 individuals (the control group) are chosen at random and matched to the study group's age, gender, educational level, and marital status. In both groups, the diagnosis of GAD was assessed using the right questionnaires. Patients with PUD had considerably higher GAD levels. people with PUD are more likely to have a generalized anxiety disorder, hence these people should have it evaluated. Peptic ulcer condition is often known as GAD (general anxiety disorder).ICD stands for the International Classification of Disease.
