Efficiency of TISSEEL for Sleeve Gastrectomy Complications (TISSEEL)

Randomized Prospective Clinical Study Evaluating the Usefulness of Fibrin Glue (TISSEEL® KIT) to Prevent Gastric Fistula, Intra Abdominal Haemorrhage and Intra Abdominal Loco Regional Collections After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy has emerged over the last 20 years as a treatment of choice in the surgical management of patients with morbid obesity. However, this restrictive procedure is accompanied by outcomes such as gastric fistula (5%), postoperative hemorrhage (1%) and intra-abdominal loco regional collections (1%). At present, there is no sufficiently reliable technique to prevent these complications.

Detailed Description

The hypothesis is the following : the use of fibrin glue (Tissucol ®) during Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy would reduce the incidence of complications (gastric fistula, intra-abdominal hemorrhage and intra-abdominal locoregional collection).

The aim is to investigate whether the use of fibrin glue (Tissucol®) during Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy reduces the incidence of postoperative complications (gastric fistula, intra-abdominal hemorrhage and intra-abdominal locoregional collection)

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description

The primary endpoint corresponds to the presence of complications after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy during the follow up period. A complication is considered as "present" if at least one of the following three items is present:

  • Gastric fistula
  • Postoperative hemorrhage
  • intra-abdominal locoregional collection
post operative day 30
