- Abstract
Purpose: The development of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a commonly encountered scenario after sleeve gastrectomy. A recently reported technical amendment to incorporate a Nissen fundoplication is discussed in this multimedia article focussing on optimising outcomes and reducing complications. Materials and Methods: An intraoperative video has been edited to demonstrate the Nissen-Sleeve Gastrectomy and important technical considerations in its technical performance. Results: Gastrolysis is performed proximally from 6 cm proximal to the pylorus. Routine full mediastinal mobilisation of the oesophagus (5 cm) is completed. Cruroplasty is routinely performed. A short Nissen fundoplication is completed calibrated on a 37 French bougie and then sleeve gastrectomy is performed. Our team's experience suggests that careful manipulation of the fundus and using reproducible measurements of the fundus are key to completing the fundoplication whilst minimising complications. A control test with mobilisation of the bougie through the wrap is recommended at the end of the procedure. Conclusion: The Nissen-Sleeve Gastrectomy, as presented in this video, is safe and has good short-term efficacy outcomes. Longer term and randomised studies are ongoing.
