    Residual Gastric Volume Relationship and Weight Loss After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
    (Springer, 2020) Dogan, Sami; Onmez, Attila; Cetin, Mehmet Fuat; Ozaydin, Ismet; Pehlivan, Mevlut
    Background Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become a popular procedure for treating obesity. Excessive residual gastric volume (RGV) may be one cause of insufficient weight loss following this surgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between weight loss and the RGV measured during surgery over a 2-year follow-up period. Methods All patients undergoing LSG at our university surgery department were included in this prospective observational study. During the operation, the pylorus was grasped with a laparoscopic clamp, and saline solution dyed with methylene blue was introduced using an intraluminal glass-tipped injector when the residual stomach became fully visible. The amount of fluid given when the remaining gastric tissue ceased expanding was noted. The patients were divided into three groups depending on the volume of the residual gastric tissue. Percentages of excess weight loss (EWL%) were also evaluated 6, 12, and 24 months after the LSG. Results Sixty-two patients (50 females and 12 males) with a mean age of 36 (17-56) years were included in the study. There was no significant difference between the preoperative and postoperative body mass index values (p = 0.407 and p = 0.337, respectively) or between the preoperative and postoperative weight (p = 0.081 and p = 0.517, respectively) among the groups. A comparison of the participants' weight losses and EWL% values after 6, 12, and 24 months of follow-up revealed no significant difference among the groups at any time point (p > 0.005). Conclusion Greater weight loss was observed as the RGV decreased over the 24-month follow-up period. However, that weight loss was not statistically significant.

    Video-endoscopic Tension-free Groin Hernia Repair via Total Extraperitoneal Approach
    (Cureus Inc, 2020) Dogan, Sami; Gurleyik, Emin
    Introduction Tension-free repair of groin hernias with synthetic material by video-endoscopic surgery is a widely accepted method that is performed by various approaches. We aim to present our results of video-endoscopic tension-free repair of groin hernias via the total extraperitoneal (TEP) approach. Methods Between September 2016 and December 2018, 124 patients with groin hernias underwent tension-free repair using prolene mesh by video-endoscopic surgery via the TEP approach. This is a retrospective analysis of 110 (88.7%) male and 14 (11.3%) female patients with a mean age of 48.1 years. Groin hernia types, locations of hernias, intraoperative and postoperative complications, results of the mean 24-month follow-up, and recurrence rate were reported. Results A total of 134 hernias were repaired in 124 patients who had 53 (42.7%) right, 61 (49.2%) left, and 10 (8.1%) bilateral groin hernias. The most common hernia type was an indirect inguinal hernia in 83/134 (62%) groin hernias. A total of 119 (88.8%) and 15 (11.2%) hernias were primary and recurrent, respectively. Seroma was detected in two (1.6%) patients in the early postoperative period. The mean duration of hospital stay was 1.4 (1-3) days. During the follow-up period, hernia recurrence was determined in three (2.4%) patients. Hernia recurrence was detected among patients who were operated on during the first half of the study. Conclusion Tension-free repair of groin hernias by video-endoscopic technique via the TEP approach can be performed with very low complication and recurrence rates. The success of the TEP approach increases parallel to increasing surgical experience. The results of hernia repair via the TEP approach are highly satisfactory and encouraging, especially when attention is paid to proper patient selection during the learning curve period.
