Midterm Follow up Outcomes of (SASJ) in Management of Morbid Obesity

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Obesity is a critical health problem associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancers, affecting both the quality of life and life expectancy . The increasing prevalence of obesity and comorbid conditions requires effective treatment and prevention . Previous evidence has demonstrated that bariatric surgery is associated with greater and longer-term weight loss than non-surgical management Thus, in patients with a body mass index of ≥ 40 or ≥ 35 kg/m2 with co-morbidities, bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment option that not only promotes weight loss but also improves comorbid conditions . However, like any surgical procedure, several complications can occur . The development of nutritional deficiencies is a complication which may be life-threatening; therefore, bariatric surgery requires careful consideration . The most frequently performed surgery for obesity worldwide is the laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and more recently, the one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) . One newly developed weight loss procedure, the single sleeve ileal anastomosis bypass (SASI), has been developed as a modification to Santoro's operation (sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition SG + TB) . Since no duodenal division or manual anastomosis is required, the procedure allows easy endoscopic access to the duodenum . noted that SASI has the following advantages over other bariatric procedures: SASI has a shorter operative time compared to other procedures; 2) easy access to the duodenum and biliary tree endoscopically; 3) SASI does not divide the duodenum, thus eliminating the possibility of duodenal stump leakage, a serious complication with an incidence range between; 4) the tension on the anastomosis lower than other techniques; 5) there are no blind loops, excluded segments, or foreign bodies; 6) SASI is completely reversible . Single anastomosis sleeve jejunal (SASJ) bypass, which is the focus of this study, is a modification of SASI using a shorter biliopancreatic limb length compared to SASI to prevent long-term nutritional complications . The SASJ bypass appears to be safer than the SASI procedure in patients with excessive weight loss and nutritional deficiencies and is simpler due to its improved surgical ergonomics . Aim of the Work This study aims to evaluate the three-year outcomes of SASJ bypass as a primary bariatric procedure in a tertiary bariatric center for weight loss, comorbidity resolution, and both early and late complications.
