Sleeve Gastrectomy Why a New Procedure ?

Sleeve Gastrectomy The Mason Era Mc Gregor A, ASBS Website, 1999 Gastric BypassVertical Banded Gastroplasty Mason and Ito, 1967Mason et al, 1982

Sleeve Gastrectomy “We need a bariatric procedure that does not cause as much morbidity and does not need as much follow up as the current ones “

Sleeve Gastrectomy Potential Advantages If Effective ? No long term complications ? No Int. Hernias ? No malabsorption – No micronutrient deficiency ? No Strictures ? No Marginal Ulcerations ? Maintains oral access to GI and Biliary tract When compared to RYGBP:

Sleeve Gastrectomy Potential Advantages If Effective ? Completely removes Ghrelin cell mass No dumping Does not interfere with immunosuppressant Can always be upgraded to RYGBP !? When compared to RYGBP:

Sleeve Gastrectomy Potential Advantages If Effective ? No need for adjustments. No needles !!! Removes Ghrelin Cell mass. Loss of appetite !! Creates restriction more than obstruction No need to do yearly endoscopy No/less follow up ? When compared to LAGB:

Sleeve Gastrectomy Brief History Evolution of LSG

Sleeve Gastrectomy Sleeve gastrectomy was first described in 1988 when Scopinaro's technique of biliopancreatic diversion with distal gastrectomy and gastroileostomy was modified by Hess and simultaneously by Marceau Scopinaro, N., Adami, G. F., Marinari, G. M., Gianetta, E., Traverso, E., Friedman, D., Camerini, G., Baschieri, G., and Simonelli, A. Biliopancreatic Diversion. World J Surg. 1998;22(9): Hess, D. S. and Hess, D. W. Biliopancreatic Diversion With a Duodenal Switch. Obes.Surg. 1998;8(3): Marceau, P., Biron, S., St Georges, R., Duclos, M., Potvin, M., and Bourque, R. A.

Sleeve Gastrectomy Mechanism of Action How does it work ?

Sleeve Gastrectomy How doest it work ? Sleeve gastrectomy Creates restriction Removes Ghrelin cells Creates a natural band PYLORUS

Sleeve Gastrectomy Gastric Emptying is not affected by Sleeve Gastrectomy or the emptying function of the remnant stomach following sleeve gastrectomy assessed by gastric scintigraphy in morbidly obese patients.

Gastrointestinal peptides involved in appetite control Appetite - Pancreatic polypeptide (PP) -Peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY) - Products of preproglucagon: Glucagon-like 1, oxyntomodulin Appetite - Ghrelin

Sleeve Gastrectomy Ghrelin plasma levels

Sleeve Gastrectomy Regulation of energy balance at Brain Increases hunger: hypothal feeding centers. Humans injected with ghrelin: intense hunger. Suppresses fat utilization in adipose tissue Stimulates gastric emptying Increases cardiac output (possible GH effect) Fundus of Stomach is Primary Source GHRELIN

Sleeve Gastrectomy Ghrelin secretion  Negative energy balance  Starvation  Cachexia  Anorexia nervosa  Positive energy balance  Obesity ?  Hyperglycemia  Feeding HighLow

Sleeve Gastrectomy  Sleeve gastrectomy:  Decreased plasma ghrelin levels

Sleeve Gastrectomy Preliminary results  10 Sleeve gastrectomy patients  2 non-obese controls  Quantification and distribution of ghrelin cells in the stomach Results: Mean number of ghrelin cells Sleeve gastrectomy Control p=0.002
