Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Closure of Mesenteric Defects in Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass Surgery A Randomized Clinical Trial

Erik Stenberg et al.

Summary: This randomized clinical trial evaluated the long-term safety and efficacy of mesenteric defects closure during laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) surgery. The results showed a reduced risk of small bowel obstruction (SBO) with closure of mesenteric defects. Routine use of this procedure during LRYGB should be considered.

The Diagnostic Accuracy of Abdominal Computed Tomography in Diagnosing Internal Herniation Following Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

May Al Nawas et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the accuracy of abdominal CT in diagnosing IH following RYGB surgery, concluding that CT is a reliable imaging modality for the detection of IH and should be added to the diagnostic work-up for RYGB patients with abdominal pain suggestive of IH to improve patient selection for explorative surgery.

Comparison of Linear versus Circular-Stapled Gastroenterostomy in Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: A Nationwide Population-Based Cohort Study

Marleen M. Romeijn et al.

Summary: The study found that there was no significant difference in weight loss outcomes over a 4-year period following RYGB surgery when comparing circular stapling and linear stapling techniques. However, patients who underwent circular stapling experienced more complications, specifically major bleeding, within the first 30 days postoperatively. Linear stapling may be advantageous due to its lower complication rate.

The Jejunojejunostomy: an Achilles Heel of the Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Construction

Suzanne Hedberg et al.

Summary: This study characterized the clinical patterns, patient characteristics, and outcomes after surgical revision of dysfunctional RYGB in a tertiary hospital. Most patients experienced relief of symptoms following revisional surgery, but a minority continued to have persistent issues, with some eventually needing anatomical reversal.

Randomized clinical trial on closure versus non-closure of mesenteric defects during laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery

S. D. Kristensen et al.

Summary: This study suggests that routine closure of mesenteric defects with clips during LRYGB is associated with a lower rate of internal herniation. While closure of defects increases operating time, it does not affect postoperative blood transfusion rates and pain scores.
