- Abstract
Purpose: Over the last decade, an important interest was taken to prevent the reflux following sleeve. A new variant, Nissen-sleeve, was described with the purpose to prevent GERD and to decrease the occurrence of leak. The current study reports the preliminary results of a prospective trial. Materials and Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent a Nissen-Sleeve between January 2018 and September 2020 were included. Baseline characteristics including age, gender, weight, body mass index (BMI), GERD symptoms, and treatment were evaluated after 1 year. Operative time, length of stay, complication, and reoperation data were also collected. Results: Three hundred sixty-five consecutive patients decided to undergo Nissen-sleeve: 75% females with median age of 41.2 years (+ / − 14.1) and an average BMI of 41.6 kg/m2 (+ / − 5.4). There were 16 cases (4.4%) of early postoperative complications (< 30 days): six cases of acute wrap perforation (1.6%), intraabdominal bleeding for 5 patients (1.4%), one case of wrap dilatation (0.3%), one case of acute complete aphagia, one case of incarcerated umbilical hernia, and 2 cases (0.5%) of pulmonary atelectasis/pneumonia and one venous pulmonary embolism. We recorded the following complications: 16 patients (4.4%) mild dysphagia; 3 patients (0.8%) chronic dysphagia; and 2 cases of wrap perforation that have been diagnosed 8 and 9 months respectively, after the procedure due to the use of steroids not associated with PPI intake. The mean operative time was 83 min (46–125 min). The conversion and mortality rates were nil. Conclusion: Following the initial learning curve and additional technical modifications, the Nissen-Sleeve appears to be a safe surgical technique with an acceptable early postoperative complication rate. Clinical Trial Registration: NCT02310178.
