- Abstract
Letter to the Editor: Serendipity during Sleeve Gastrectomy - Blood Supply Might Be Fundamental for Hunger and Satiety Blood vessels are fundamental to transport and exchange the gut hormones and it seems that this alteration in gut hormone balance leads to changes in energy homeostasis and weight reduction [[5]]. Since dignity of this esophageal tumor was not absolutely clear and tumor measure was 5 cm, I decided to stop surgery after tumor removal and to await the final histopathology result before proceeding with sleeve gastrectomy as a second step.
