Abstract

Purpose: The usefulness of reinforcement of staple-line during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is still controversial.We review our experience of LSG to check it.

Materials and Methods: Eighty one patients who were performed LSG betweenApril 2009 and August 2010 enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups; nonreinforcement ofstaple-line group and reinforcement of staple-line group. We started reinforcement of staple-line from 31st patients becausewe experienced three cases of staple-line related complications.

Results: The demographics of each group had no difference.There were three staple-line related complication(one case of leak and 2 cases of kinking) in nonreinforcement group,but no staple-line related complication in reinforcement group (P=0.048). There was no bleeding and no stenosis in bothgroup. The operation time was longer in nonreinforcement group than reinforcement group (129 min. vs 103 min.,P=0.027). Also, the number of patients who needed medication for reflux symptom were 6 (20%) in nonreinforcementgroup and 2 (3.9%) in reinforcement group (P=0.019).

Conclusion: Routine reinforcement of the staple-line may decreasethe staple-line related complications. A well-designed prospective study with longer follow up would be necessary toelucidate the efficacy and usefulness of the staple-line reinforcement during LSG.
