Clinical Study of Laparoscopic Non Banded Vertical Gastroplasty in Bariatric Surgery

January 28, 2014 updated by: Arnaud De Roover, University of Liege

Laparoscopic Non Banded Vertical (Magenstrasse and Mill) Gastroplasty In Bariatric Surgery. Morbidity and Results on Weight Loss and Associated Co-morbidities

Evaluation of the laparoscopic approach of the Magenstrasse and Mill procedure in a prospective study of 100 patients

Study Overview

Status

Unknown

Conditions

Detailed Description

The laparoscopy is performed under general anesthesia with a 5 ports access under 14mm Hg pressure. After opening of the gastrocolic ligament and division of any adhesions between stomach and pancreas a circular opening is performed at the junction of corpus and antrum of the stomach with a circular stapler. A tubular gastric pouch is then created along a calibration tube at the lesser curvature by a vertical stapling starting from the circular opening to the angle of Hiss.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Laparoscopic Vertical Gastroplasty
The Magenstrasse and Mill procedure is a conservative vertical gastroplasty described in 1987 through a laparotomy. A tubular gastric pouch is created by a vertical stapling extending from the antrum to the angle of Hiss. In this study, we evaluate the laparoscopic technique of the procedure.
