Modifications to Gastric Sleeve: Implications for GRED and Quality of Life

Modifications to Gastric Tube Construction in Vertical Gastrectomy: Implications for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease and Patient Quality of Life

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Jul 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a prospective randomized clinical trial evaluating the impact of antrum and fundus calibration during laparoscopic vertical gastrectomy (VG) on postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), quality of life, and surgical costs. Eligible participants are adults with morbid obesity (BMI ≥35 kg/m²) undergoing LSG. Patients are randomized into four groups based on whether antral and/or fundal calibration is performed. Primary outcomes include the incidence of de novo GERD at 12 months. Secondary outcomes include postoperative quality of life, vomiting , surgical complications, weight loss, and operative costs. The study aims to optimize the LSG technique by identifying anatomical modifications that minimize GERD while improving clinical outcomes
