6 Band to sleeve revision - risks Surgeons worry about the leak rate following single stage conversion Historical leak rates up to 17.7%, mainly single site series Systematic reviews are unable to show patient characteristics within groups Why greater risk? Mechanical scar tissue thickness impacting on staple deployment Ischaemia?related to increased dissection around fundus/l crus

7 Advantages - Single vs two stage conversion Single stage Logistical Access Financial No interval for weight gain Surgeon experience Two stage Logistical Theatre list planning Overall safer?

8 So what data is there around this question? Meta-analysis vs RCT vs Cohort studies vs Big data

11 Mandatory data registry participation 2005 onward Obes Surg 2014 Recommendation Suggest 2-stage procedure

12 ACS-NSQIP registry 11,546 LSG pts 11,189 1 LSG vs 357 GBR/LSG 30 day sepsis* 0.58% vs 1.68% p 0.02 Somewhat limited as patient related data not available eg erosion, nor those who were 2 stage conversions and *sepsis a surrogate marker for staple line leak

13 MBSAQiP registry ASMBS sponsored Obes Surg AGB conversions SG in 3364 (69%), RYGB in 1501 RYGB in higher risk patients (co-morbidities)

14 Obes Surg 2017 Conclusion AGB conversion to RYGB or SG as a single-stage procedure is associated with low postoperative morbidity

15 Kylie, 33 yo, 112 kg, BMI 37, MSK co-morbidities LAGB 2010, lost and regained 20 kg Unable to re-establish band control after pregnancy Assessed as suitable for single stage conversion to SG

20 Outcomes Patients from a single practice

21 Exclusion criteria for Single stage consideration Preoperatively: Patient consent Weight greater than initial banding BMI over 45 Any revision procedures Evidence of distal slip Intraoperatively: Presence of an extensively thickened capsule Potential interference to blood supply Moderately large hiatus hernia

22 Population cohort 86 band to sleeve conversion procedures 47 Selectively offered single stage procedure 38 completed 9 crossed over to two stage procedure Total (86) 1-stage (38) 2-stage (48) Planned 1- stage (9) Planned 2- stage (39)

23 Group Comparison 1-stage conversions (n = 38): Age 48-years BMI at removal of LAGB 37kg/m % female, 15.8% male 2-stage conversions (n = 48): Age 48-years BMI at removal of LAGB 41kg/m % female, 14.6% male No significant difference in any patient profiles between groups: glucose, asthma, hypertension, lipid profile, sleep apnoea, arthritis, fertility and psychiatric co-morbidity

24 Primary Outcome: Clavien-Dindo Classification Total procedural complications, p = Grade 1-Stage (38) 2-Stage (48) Total (86) 0/I 14 (36.8%) 14 (29.2%) 28 (36%) II 19 (50%) 24 (50%) 43 (50%) IIIa 2 (5.3%) 3 (6.3%) 5 (5.8%) IIIb 3 (7.9%) 6 (12.5%) 9 (10.5%) IV 0 1 (2.1%) 1 (1.2%) 2 staple line leaks in the 2 stage group managed endoscopically

25 Conclusions When managed under a multi-disciplinary team, 1-stage conversion appears as safe as 2-stage conversion, in terms of occurrence of operative complications.

26 Conclusions Single stage band to sleeve conversion appears to be safe in selected cases The pitfall? Case selection
