Summary Background Data: Postoperative is a rare event after Therefore, comprehensive data on are lacking literature. Methods: A retrospective analysis large prospective database was carried out. The Italian Society Obesity Surgery runs National Registry surgery where all performed by members should be included...
: To analyze the potential effects of preoperative age on postoperative weight loss in patients who underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) with long-term follow-up data.: The reasons for individual differences surgically induced are not completely understood. date, there no available studies specifically aimed at analyzing undergoing same operation and Retrospective analysis prospectively collected data all RYGBP between 2006 2010. evaluate loss, we used body mass index (BMI), analyzed...
To evaluate the long-term effects of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) on gastroesophageal function.LRYGB is considered weight loss procedure choice for obese patients with reflux disease (GERD). However, instrumental evaluations GERD after LRYGB are not available.Morbidly selected were included in a prospective study. We performed clinical evaluation GERD-HRQoL questionnaire, upper endoscopy, esophageal manometry, and 24-hour impedance pH (24-hour MII-pH) monitoring...
To compare, in a prospective, randomized, single-institution trial laparoscopic adjustable silicone gastric banding (LASGB) with vertical banded gastroplasty (LVBG) morbidly obese patients.LASGB is simple and safe procedure, but some reports have suggested disappointing long-term results. Despite the recent widespread use of LASGB, there are no prospective nor randomized trials comparing LASGB other procedures.A total 100 patients, body mass index (BMI) 40 to 50 kg/m2, without compulsive...
In patients with obesity, micronutrient deficiencies have been reported both before and after bariatric surgery (BS). Obesity is a chronic pro-inflammatory status, inflammation increases the risk of malnutrition. Our objective was to assess in pre-BS prevalence their correlation blood values C-reactive protein (CRP).Anthropometric data, instrumental examinations, variables were centrally measured first 200 undergoing evaluation at "Città della Salute e Scienza" Hospital Torino, starting from...
To evaluate the long-term results of laparoscopic vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) for morbid obesity.Laparoscopic VBG, a safe and straightforward bariatric procedure characterized by good short-term results, has been progressively replaced other more complex procedures on basis presumed high rate failure. Nevertheless, some authors have recently reported efficacy in selected patients.All patients who underwent VBG were included prospective database. Patients reaching 10-year follow-up...

Obesity is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. This study aimed to assess the role of echocardiography in early detection subclinical cardiac abnormalities a cohort obese patients preserved ejection fraction (EF) undergoing bariatric surgery.Forty consecutive severely (body mass index≥35 kg/m2) referring our center for surgery were enrolled this prospective study. Despite baseline EF 61% ± 3%, almost half (43%) had systolic dysfunction (SD) defined as global longitudinal strain...
