Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Background: Bariatric surgery is a complex procedure not
exempt of complications. Aim: To assess mortality and complications of excisional gastric
bypass among morbidly obese subjects. Material and methods: Prospective analysis of 684
morbid obese patients (age range 14-70 years, 525 females) subjected to an excisional gastric
bypass. Major postoperative complications and mortality were registered. Results: Mean body
mass index (BMI) of the subjects was 43.7 kg/m2. One hundred sixty two patients had a BMI
between 35 and 39.9 kg/m2, 419 had a BMI between 40 and 49.9 kg/m2 and 103 had a BMI
over 50 kg/m2. Two patients with a BMI of 52 and 56 kg/m2 respectively, died in the
postoperative period (0.3%). Thirty six patients had major complications. Anastomotic fistula
was the most common complication in 12 patients (1.7%). Fourteen patients required a new
operation due to complications. None of these died. The mean operative volume of the surgical
team was 124 patients per year. Conclusions: Excisional gastric bypass has a low rate of
mortality and complications, if the surgical team operates a large volume of patients. | en |
