1 Sadi surgery 1 Department of Bariatric Surgery, Orlando Regional Medical Center, Orlando Health, Orlando, FL, USA.. In the next years Marceau and Hess added some technical changes resulting in another type of biliopancreatic diversion: the sleeve gastrectomy with duodenal switch (DS) 12. As with all weight loss procedures it is a laparoscopic (keyhole) procedure performed under a general anaesthetic. The operation involves two parts: Firstly part of the stomach is removed making a smaller stomach similar to a sleeve gastrectomy. Then the first part of the intestine (duodenum) is divided just below the stomach and anastomosed (reattached) to a loop of intestine about 2 metres further downstream. This has the effect of decreasing appetite, restricting meal sizes, and bypassing food away from the metabolically active part of the intestine resulting in beneficial hormonal changes which have a positive influence on the body's metabolism. Arq Bras Cir Dig. 2016; 29(Suppl 1): Now the stomach with first portion of duodenum can be orientated to a medial position and in general the tip of the proximal duodenum can reach the infra-mesocolic abdomen.. Biliopancreatic bypass was first described by Scopinaro in Last edited on 15 September 2018, at 22:34. There are currently 4 published studies on single-anastomosis DS procedures (prospective or retrospective case series) with 222 total patients (including second-stage patients) with follow-up from 18 months to 5 years [3 6]. Three of the 4 studies are from a single institution representing a single ongoing consecutive series on the SADI-S that is included in the Clinicaltrials.gov Protocol Registration System. The fourth study compared the LDS modification with a matched gastric bypass cohort. Both sites involved surgeons already experienced with performing standard laparoscopic DS procedures. Given the lack of any randomized or prospective comparative data and the limited data regarding long-term nutritional effects, however, there is insufficient evidence to draw any definitive conclusions regarding the safety, efficacy, and durability of these procedures compared with the standard DS procedure. The authors reporting on the SADI-S procedure have raised intestinal adaptation, enteritis, gas bloat, unclear optimal limb

2 lengths, and weight regain as potential long-term concerns unique to the single-anastomosis modification [2]. Revisional strategies after long-term complications of single-anastomosis DS are also not reported in the literature. 1 Department of Bariatric Surgery, Orlando Regional Medical Center, Orlando Health, Orlando, FL, USA. DeMeester, TR; Fuchs, KH; Ball, CS; Albertucci, M; Smyrk, TC; Marcus, JN (October 1987). "Experimental and clinical results with proximal end-to-end duodenojejunostomy for pathologic duodenogastric reflux". Annals of Surgery. 206 (4): doi: / ISSN. The following statement is issued by the American Society for Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) in response to numerous inquiries made to the Society by patients, physicians, society members, hospitals, and others regarding single-anastomosis duodenal switch as a primary treatment for obesity or metabolic disease. This recommendation is based on current clinical knowledge, expert opinion, and published peer-reviewed scientific evidence available at this time. The statement is not intended as, and should not be construed as, stating or establishing a local, regional, or national standard of care. What is a SADI/SIPS procedure, and who does it suit?. Received 2015 Oct 14; Accepted 2016 May 23. Conclusions: SADI-S with right gastric artery ligation is a safe procedure with few preliminary complications. The technical variations introduced to the classical duodenal switch are reproducible and may allow this procedure to be more popular. All the complications in this series were not related to the ligation of the right gastric artery. In 1988, the BPD was modified to the DS- BPD where instead of transecting the stomach in half horizontally, it was made into a Sleeve Gastrectomy shape. The ileum (distal small intestine) was then attached to the sleeve just after the pylorus. The intestinal bypass was otherwise the same as the BPD, although the Common Channel was allowed to be longer to help reduce malnutrition. These changes allowed patients to achieve was a reduction in portion sizes that could be eaten in any one setting, and decreased dumping because the pylorus, or muscle located at the end of the stomach, was left intact. Early on, and even sometimes today, the Duodenal Switch was staged, or broken up into two procedures; this was done in order to reduce the risk of doing one big surgery which could take several hours. The Sleeve Gastrectomy was the first part, followed a few months later by the intestinal bypass. Some patients were happy just with the first part of the procedure- the Sleeve Gastrectomy- and did not want to proceed with the intestinal portion. That is how the stand-alone Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy started to be used as its own type of weight loss surgery. Of note, the

3 Sleeve Gastrectomy that accompanies the Duodenal Switch is traditionally slightly larger than that of a stand-alone sleeve gastrectomy, in order to allow DS patients to eat a large enough portion of food to get sufficient nutrients (specifically protein) in each day. METHODS After institutional review board approval and following the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act guidelines, the authors performed a retrospective chart review of a prospectively maintained database of initial 72 patients who underwent laparoscopic or robot-assisted laparoscopic SADI-S between December 17 th, 2013 and July 29 th, For this type of study, formal consent is not required. SADI-S was performed by two surgeons according to the National Institutes of Health criteria for the management of morbid obesity. Patients were followed up at our office clinic at 1, 3, 6, 12 months postoperatively and yearly thereafter. Follow-up visits included weight measurement, clinical history and examination, and laboratory tests for blood glucose as well as nutrition deficiency. Comorbid conditions were recorded at each visit. Remission of hypertension (HTN) was defined as blood pressure below 140/90 mmhg without medication. Remission of diabetes mellitus (DM) was defined as fasting glucose level below 100 mg/dl without medication. Improvement of DM was defined as fasting glucose level below 100 mg/dl decrease in number or dosage of medication. Remission of sleep apnea was based on patient's statement and no usage of continuous positive airway pressure machine.

Sovik TT, Aasheim ET, Taha O. Weight loss, cardiovascular risk factors, and quality of life after gastric bypass and duodenal switch a randomized trial. As this procedure is considered as the most difficult one, have you recorded any intraoperative incidents?. This procedure has evolved over many years. It is a modification of the original Duodenal Switch (DS) operation, and as it has been refined over many years it is known by various names. The problem with the DS operation was that such a long segment of intestine was bypassed; it led to many patients having malnutrition and vitamin deficiencies. Many patients also had loose bowel motions as a result. In 2007 a Spanish surgeon Dr Antonio Torres developed the loop technique, reducing two anastomosis down to

4 one, and bypassed less intestine. This became known as the Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileostomy (SADI) procedure. Subsequently this made the operation safer, with less effects of malnutrition, diarrhoea and vitamin deficiencies. Further on, a couple of American Surgeons; Dr Mitch Roslin and Dr Daniel Cottam refined the technique slightly further; bypassing the intestine even less; thus even further decreasing the potential to have long term problems. This became known as the Stomach Intestine Pylorus Preserving Surgery (SIPS). The results of these pioneering surgeons demonstrating extremely good weight loss and extremely low complication rates has led to its popularity. The SIPS procedure is now performed at many specialist weight loss centres throughout the world. #OH2018 National Conference October 5th - 6th, 2018 Anaheim, CA. Conclusão: SADI-S com ligadura da artéria gástrica direita é procedimento seguro com poucas complicações precoces. A simplificação técnica em relação ao duodenal switch clássico pode permitir que este procedimento se torne mais popular. Todas as complicações observadas nesta série não estavam relacionadas com a ligadura da artéria gástrica direita. There are other departments like general surgery, internal, cardiology, biochemistry, etc. The gastric band helps patients concerned about portion control and constant hunger.
