Obesity is a worldwide epidemic, and bariatric surgery considered the primary treatment for long-term weight loss managing obesity-related health issues. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are most performed procedures. Nutritional deficiencies significant concern following can have serious consequences. This study aims to compare incidence of nutritional in patients undergoing RYGB SG. A retrospective analysis was conducted on status 505 consecutive who underwent either...
Metabolic surgery is the foremost treatment for obesity and its associated medical conditions. Nonetheless, post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) emerges as a prevalent complication. PBH pathophysiology implicates heightened insulin glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) levels, with bile acids (BA) contributing to GLP-1 release. A plausible association exists between cholecystectomy PBH, which attributed alterations in BA metabolism ensuing hormonal responses. The objective of this retrospective...
29 Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics early gastric cancer (EGC) in comparison advanced tumors and its role patient's prognosis. Methods: This related 1,272 patients admitted with or gastroesophageal junction carcinoma our department, between January 1988 December 2008. During period incidence EGC 12.68% (3.62% T0, 42.75% T1a 53.62% T1b). Several clinical, pathological staging parameters were evaluated according classification tumors. Results: Significant...
22 Background: This study aimed to evaluate the early onset gastric cancer (EOGC), considered as in a patient younger than 45 years, distinct entity with different prognosis. Methods: is related 1,256 patients admitted or gastroesophageal junction carcinoma our department between January 1988 and December 2008. There were 10.59% (133 cases) of EOGC series.

Abstract Introduction The frequency of revisional bariatric surgery is increasing, but its effectiveness and safety are not yet fully established. aim our study was to compare short-term outcomes primary (pRYGB pSG) surgeries (rRYGB rSG). Methods We performed a retrospective cohort assessing all patients submitted (after failed AGB) RYGB SG in 2019. Each patient followed-up at 6 months 12 after surgery. compared pRYGB vs. rRYGB, pSG rSG rRYGB on weight loss, surgical complications,...

Methods: From a universe 50 patients with or gastroesophageal junction carcinoma submitted surgical treatment between January and October 2009, in our department, 36 out 38 carcinomas ressected during this period, were selected for tumor tissue immunohistochemical study simple mucin-type carbohydrate antigens (Tn, STn, T ST) Lewis (SLea SLex).
