Abstract
BACKGROUND The lack of standardized objective assessment of esophageal physiology and anatomy contributes to controversies regarding the effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on gastroesophageal reflux disease. This study aimed to investigate esophageal acid exposure, esophageal motility, and endoscopic findings before and after SG and RYGB. METHODS This was a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting at least 1 objective measure of esophageal physiology and/or esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) at baseline and after SG or RYGB. The changes in pH test, manometry, and EGD parameters were summarized. RESULTS Acid exposure time (AET) and DeMeester score (DMS) significantly increased after SG (mean difference [MD]: 2.1 [95% CI, 0.3-3.9] and 8.6 [95% CI, 2.0-15.2], respectively). After RYGB, both AET and DMS significantly decreased (MD: -4.2 [95% CI, -6.1 to -2.3] and -16.6 [95% CI, -25.4 to -7.8], respectively). Lower esophageal sphincter resting pressure and length significantly decreased after SG (MD: -2.8 [95% CI, -4.6 to -1.1] and -0.1 [95% CI, -0.2 to -0.02], respectively). There were no significant changes in esophageal manometry after RYGB. The relative risks of erosive esophagitis were 2.3 (95% CI, 1.5-3.5) after SG and 0.4 (95% CI, 0.2-0.8) after RYGB. The prevalence rates of Barrett esophagus changed from 0% to 3.6% after SG and from 2.7% to 1.4% after RYGB. CONCLUSION SG resulted in the worsening of all objective parameters, whereas RYGB resulted in the improvement in AET, DMS, and EGD findings. Determining the risk factors associated with these outcomes can help in surgical choice.

Abstract
Background: Variable incidences (up to 18.8%) of Barrett's esophagus (BE) have been reported following sleeve gastrectomy (SG), however, there is no published data from the Southeast Asian population. Objective: To determine the incidence of BE following SG in Southeast Asians. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study from a tertiary-care center, all patients who had undergone SG from 2008 to 2021 and completed a minimum of 1-year follow-up were contacted to participate. Preoperative data were retrieved from a prospectively maintained database. On recruitment, all patients underwent barium swallow and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, and weight parameters and reflux symptoms were recorded. Results: One hundred fourteen patients with no preoperative evidence of BE were included. The mean follow-up duration was 5.4 ± 3.1 years. On follow-up endoscopy, Barrett's was suspected in 4 patients. However, 3 patients had columnar-lined epithelium and only 1 patient (0.87%) had evidence of intestinal metaplasia without dysplasia on histology. Reflux esophagitis (grade LA-A) resolved in 9 out of 11 patients, while the rate of de novo esophagitis was reported in 22.3%. The mean reflux Symptom Severity score increased from 0.6 ± 1.8 to 2.6 ± 5.4 (P = .002). The mean body mass index reduced from 44.1 ± 7.1 to 33.6 ± 6.9 kg/m2 (P < .0001), however, 23.7% of the patients experienced significant weight recidivism. Conclusions: Southeast Asians might have a low incidence of BE following SG. Hence, endoscopic surveillance for the sole purpose of diagnosing BE may not be advisable for these patients.

Abstract
Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is the most effective intervention for weight loss leading to significant resolution of obesity-related medical conditions. Recent literature has demonstrated risk reduction of certain cancer types after MBS. Studies have shown an overall reduction in the risk of hormonal cancer, such as breast and endometrial cancer. However, the association between bariatric surgery and the incidence of various types of non-hormonal cancer such as esophageal, gastric, liver, gallbladder, colorectal, pancreatic and kidney cancer remains contested. The aim of this study was to highlight obesity and its relationship to cancer development as well as bariatric surgery and its role in cancer reduction with focus on non-hormonal cancers.

Abstract
Objective: The surgical management of tumors of the esophagogastric junction is increasingly performed by minimally invasive Ivor Lewis esophagectomy. However, gastroplasty is not always feasible. The creation of a long loop is an alternative for esophageal reconstruction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the technical feasibility of using a minimally invasive thoracoscopic approach in esophagojejunostomy and to describe the contraindications for gastroplasty. Methods: All patients who had intrathoracic esophagojejunostomy in our center were identified in our database. Since 2016, the preferred approach for intrathoracic esophagojejunostomy is minimally invasive laparoscopy and thoracoscopy, using a long Roux-en-Y jejunal loop with a semimechanical triangular anastomosis technique. Results: Between January 1, 2012 and January 1, 2022, 12 patients who had esophagojejunostomy in our center were included in the study. Among them, 6 had thoracotomy and 6 had total minimally invasive thoracoscopy, representing 3.5% of surgical procedures for esophagogastric junction tumors since 2016. The mean operative time was 416.9 ± 107.47 minutes. No anastomotic leakage was observed in the minimally invasive group versus 2 leakages in the thoracotomy group. The main complication was pneumonia in 3 patients (27.3%). Finally, the main indication for intrathoracic esophagojejunostomy was tumor size with a mean of 4.72 ± 2.35 cm and the patient's surgical history. Conclusion: A total minimally invasive approach using a long jejunal loop with triangular anastomosis could be a feasible and reproducible alternative to gastroplasty to restore continuity in Ivor Lewis esophagectomy when the stomach cannot be used.

Endoscopic Follow-Up Between 3 and 7 Years After Sleeve Gastrectomy Reveals Antral Reactive Gastropathy but no Barrett's Esophagus. Obes Surg 2023; 33:3112-3119. [PMID: 37605066 DOI: 10.1007/s11695-023-06785-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Revised: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 08/10/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The main concerns following sleeve gastrectomy (SG) include the risk of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and its complications, such as Barrett's esophagus (BE). However, there is conflicting data on esophageal conditions, and studies on alterations of gastric mucosa after SG are lacking, despite reported cases of gastric cancer. Our aim was to assess esophageal and gastric lesions after SG. METHODS From November 2017, an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGE) was proposed at least 3 years after SG to all patients operated on in our institution. Endoscopic results and gastric histological findings were analyzed. BE was defined as endoscopically suspected esophageal metaplasia with histological intestinal metaplasia. RESULTS Between September 2008 and August 2018, 375 patients underwent SG at our institution, of which 162 (43%) underwent at least one UGE 3 years or more after SG (91% women, mean preoperative age: 43.3±10.3 years). Despite a significant increase in the prevalence of symptomatic GERD, hiatal hernia, and esophagitis after SG (p<0.001 vs. preoperatively), no cases of BE were detected. Gastric dysplasia was not found and the prevalence of gastric atrophy tended to decrease after SG. However, 27% of patients with gastric biopsies developed antral reactive gastropathy. CONCLUSIONS At a mean follow-up of 54 months after SG, no BE or gastric dysplasia was identified. However, reactive gastric lesions appeared, and their long-term consequences need to be further clarified. Thus, the timing of endoscopic follow-up, starting as early as 3 years after SG should be reevaluated to improve patient adherence with long-term endoscopies.

Abstract
Sleeve gastrectomy is a safe and effective bariatric surgery in terms of weight loss and longterm improvement or resolution of comorbidities. However, its achilles heel is the possible association with the development with the novo and/or worsening of pre-existing gastroesophageal reflux disease. The anatomical and mechanical changes that this technique induces in the esophagogastric junction, support or contradict this hypothesis. Questions such as «what is the natural history of gastroesophageal reflux in the patient undergoing gastric sleeve surgery?», «how many patients after vertical gastrectomy will develop gastroesophageal reflux?» and «how many patients will worsen their previous reflux after this technique?» are intended to be addressed in the present article.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of obesity is increasing in developed societies, and surgical treatment is one treatment option. The most common surgical treatment for obesity is laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a complication of both obesity and the surgical treatment of obesity. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, the PubMed database was searched using the keywords "GERD" and "bariatric surgery", and 987 papers published between 1 July 2017 and 30 June 2022 were retrieved. RESULTS Nine papers met the inclusion criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The articles were analyzed for the de novo occurrence of GERD after the treatment of its symptoms, the occurrence of erosive esophagitis, and Barrett's esophagus. In addition, interesting conclusions are presented from the papers that did not meet the inclusion criteria but shed light on the pathophysiology of GERD in obese patients undergoing LSG. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the authors draw attention to the need for endoscopic surveillance in patients undergoing LSG, even in the absence of clinical signs of GERD.

Abstract
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is deemed a refluxogenic operation but with a low incidence of postoperative Barrett´s esophagus (BE). We aimed to shed some light on the potential paradox of the weak association between SG, BE and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). The high incidence of GERD after SG is not followed by an increased rate of BE and EAC, as these rates are similar to the general population. We hypothesized that this paradox may occur due to a difference in the gastro-esophageal reflux composition secondary to a lower content of bile, to a decrease in inflammation due to weight loss and hormonal changes, and to acquisition of healthier habits such as exercise, smoking cessation, and better eating behavior.

Abstract
Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) often induces gastroesophageal reflux, with few and discordant long-term data on the risk of Barrett's esophagus (BE) in operated patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of SG on esogastric mucosa in a rat model at 24 weeks postoperatively, which corresponds to approximately 18 years in humans. After 3 months of a high-fat diet, obese male Wistar rats were subjected to SG (n = 7) or sham surgery (n = 9). Esophageal and gastric bile acid (BA) concentrations were measured at sacrifice, at 24 weeks postoperatively. Esophageal and gastric tissues were analyzed by routine histology. The esophageal mucosa of the SG rats (n = 6) was not significantly different in comparison to that of the sham rats (n = 8), with no esophagitis or BE. However, there was more antral and fundic foveolar hyperplasia in the mucosa of the residual stomach 24 weeks after SG than in the sham group (p < 0.001). Luminal esogastric BA concentrations did not differ between the two groups. In our study, SG induced gastric foveolar hyperplasia but no esophageal lesions at 24 weeks postoperatively in obese rats. Therefore, long-term endoscopic esophageal follow-up that is recommended in humans after SG to detect BE may also be useful for detecting gastric lesions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is the most common bariatric procedure worldwide. It has been reported that there is a strong association between SG and the development of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Barrett's esophagus (BE). This study was conducted to evaluate esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) findings in patients with a history of SG with more than 5-year follow-up. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of prospectively maintained database. Inclusion criteria included patients who underwent SG between April 2015 and March 2016, aged 18 and above, BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2. Patients with 5 years of follow-up were invited to take part in the study and underwent EGD and biopsy. RESULTS One hundred twenty-six patients were recruited with a mean age of 44.6 ± 11.1 years. After a 5-year follow-up, there were 31 (29.5%) patients with reflux esophagitis. The grades of GERD were A, B, and C in 16 (15.2), 12 (11.4), and 3 (2.9%) patients, respectively. Incidence of BE was 5.7% after 5 years from SG. There was a 16.6% lost to follow-up at 5 years after SG. CONCLUSION The diagnosis and severity of GERD and the search for BE justify endoscopic surveillance in all long-term post-sleeve patients, regardless of reflux symptoms.

Risk of non-hormonal cancer after bariatric surgery: meta-analysis of retrospective observational studies. Br J Surg 2022; 110:24-33. [PMID: 36259310 DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znac343] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with an increased incidence of at least 13 types of cancer. Although bariatric surgery has been associated with a reduced risk of hormonal cancers, data for non-hormonal cancers are scarce. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of bariatric surgery on the incidence of non-hormonal cancers. METHODS Cochrane, Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched for articles between 1984 and 2018, following the PRISMA system. Meta-analysis was conducted using a random-effect model with subgroup analysis by procedure and cancer type. RESULTS From 2526 studies screened, 15 were included. There were a total of 18 583 477 patients, 947 787 in the bariatric group and 17 635 690 in the control group. In comparison to the non-surgical group, the bariatric group had a lower incidence of cancer (OR .65 (95 per cent c.i. 0.53 to 0.80); P < 0.002). In the subgroup analysis, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy were associated with decreased risk of developing cancer, while no difference was observed with adjustable gastric banding. When evaluated by cancer type, liver (OR 0.417 (95 per cent c.i. 0.323 to 0.538)), colorectal (OR 0.64 (95 per cent c.i. 0.49 to 0.84)), kidney and urinary tract cancer (OR 0.77 (95 per cent c.i. 0.72 to 0.83)), oesophageal (OR 0.60 (95 per cent c.i. 0.43 to 0.85)), and lung cancer (OR 0.796 (95 per cent c.i. 0.45 to 0.80)) also presented a lower cancer incidence in the bariatric group. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery is related to an almost 50 per cent reduction in the risk of non-hormonal cancers.

Impact of concurrent hiatal hernia repair during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on patient-reported gastroesophageal reflux symptoms: a state-wide analysis. Surg Obes Relat Dis 2022; 19:619-625. [PMID: 36586763 DOI: 10.1016/j.soard.2022.12.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Concurrent hiatal hernia repair (HHR) during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) may improve gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms. However, patient-reported outcomes are limited, and the influence of surgeon technique remains unclear. OBJECTIVES To assess patient-reported GERD severity before and after LSG with and without concomitant HHR. SETTING Teaching and non-teaching hospitals participating in a state-wide quality improvement collaborative. METHODS Using a state-wide bariatric-specific data registry, all patients who underwent a primary LSG between 2015 and 2019 who completed a baseline and 1 year validated GERD health related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) survey were identified (n = 11,742). GERD severity at 1 year as well as 30-day risk-adjusted adverse events was compared between patients who underwent LSG with or without HHR. Results were also stratified by anterior versus posterior HHR. RESULTS A total of 4015 patients underwent a LSG-HHR (34%). Compared to patients who underwent LSG without HHR, LSG-HHR patients were older (47.8 yr versus 44.6 yr; P < .0001), had a lower preoperative body mass index (BMI) (45.8 kg/m2 versus 48 kg/m2; P < .0001) and more likely to be female (85.2% versus 77.6%, P < .0001). Patients who underwent a posterior HHR (n = 3205) experienced higher rates of symptom improvement (69.5% versus 64.0%, P = .0014) and lower rates of new onset symptoms at 1 year (28.2% versus 30.2%, P = .0500). Patients who underwent an anterior HHR (n = 496) experienced higher rates of hemorrhage and readmissions with no significant difference in symptom improvement. CONCLUSIONS Concurrent posterior hiatal HHR at the time of sleeve gastrectomy can improve reflux symptoms. Patients undergoing anterior repair derive no benefit and should be avoided.
