Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrec-tomy (LSG) in the treatment of obesity associated nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 40 patients with obesity associated NAFLD who were admitted to Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases of Air Force Medical University from January 2018 to June 2019 were collected. There were 19 males and 21 females, aged (27±8)years. Patients underwent LSG after preoperative examinations and evaluations. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative conditions; (2) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by telephone interview, WeChat, and outpatient review to detect the liver function, glucose and lipid metabolism-related status as well as the relief of comorbidities of patients at 6 and 12 months after LSG. The follow-up was up to June 2020. Measurement data with normal distribu-tion were represented as Mean± SD. Repeated measurement data were analyzed by the repeated measures ANOVA. Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions: 40 patients underwent LSG successfully, without intraoperative conversion to laparotomy or death. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (83±12)minutes, (19±7)mL and (3.7±0.7)days. Among the 40 patients, 1 case had fat liquefac-tion after LSG and 2 had abdominal distension within a month, who were improved after symp-tomatic and supportive treatment. (2) Follow-up: 40 patients were followed up at postoperative 6 and 12 months. The body mass of 40 patients was (112±17)kg, (85±16)kg, (73±11)kg before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The body mass index was (39.7±4.2)kg/m 2, (30.0±4.5)kg/m 2, (25.9±2.9)kg/m 2 before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The alanine aminotransferase was (56.40±39.51)U/L, (30.15±17.93)U/L, (26.45±9.44)U/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The aspartate amino-transferase was (34.03±19.62)U/L, (28.20±10.27)U/L, (24.90±8.44)U/L before operation, at post-operative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The gamma-glutamyltransferase was (48.68±28.45)U/L, (43.30±18.56)U/L, (32.80±12.09)U/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The fasting blood-glucose was (6.51±2.38)mmol/L, (5.64±1.51)mmol/L, (4.98±0.91)mmol/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The triglyceride was (1.81±0.95)mmol/L, (1.48±0.57)mmol/L, (1.17±0.44)mmol/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The total cholesterol was (4.77±0.98)mmol/L, (4.58±0.75)mmol/L, (4.10±0.68)mmol/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. The low density lipoprotein cholesterin was (2.99±0.81)mmol/L, (2.79±0.54)mmol/L, (2.48±0.40)mmol/L before operation, at postopera-tive 6 and 12 months, respectively. The high density lipoprotein cholesterin increased was (1.08±0.20)mmol/L, (1.15±0.18)mmol/L, (1.45±0.21)mmol/L before operation, at postoperative 6 and 12 months, respectively. Compared with preoperative indicators, there were significant differences in postoperative body mass, body mass index, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma-glutamyltransferase, fasting blood-glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterin ( F=472.439, 533.730, 26.791, 11.029, 25.545, 27.994, 27.534, 36.220, 18.596, P<0.05), showing a downward trend. There was a significant difference between preoperative and postoperative high density lipoprotein cholesterin ( F=68.974, P<0.05), showing a upward trend. The excess weight loss of 40 patients at 6 months and 12 months after LSG were 61%±18% and 85%±15%. The preoperative ultrasonography of 40 patients showed no, mild, moderate and severe fatty liver in 0, 2, 15 and 23 cases, respectively. The above indicators were 8, 9, 12, 11 cases at post-operative 6 months, and 23, 11, 6, 0 cases at postoperative 12 months, respectively. There was a significant difference of the grade of NAFLD between patients before and after surgery ( χ2=68.210, P<0.05). Conclusion:LSG has an accurate short-term clinical efficacy for obesity associated NAFLD, which can reduce body mass, improve liver function, alleviat the disorders of glucose and lipid metabolism and the severity of medium-severe fatty liver.
