Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding(LAGB) in patients with obesity and obesity-related comorbidities.Methods From Oct.2006 to Dec.2007,50 morbidly obese patients including 11 cases with type 2 diabetes,3 with hypertension,15 with hyperlipidemia,28 with fatty liver,1 with obstructive sleep-apnea syndrome and 2 cases with gallstones underwent LAGB.The mean follow-up period for these patients was 11.2 months.ranging from 6 to 18 months.The weight loss,obesity-related comorbidities,outcomes and complications were evaluated.Results Mean BMI decreased significantly from preoperative(39±6)kg/m2 to postoperative(31±4)kg/m2,(28±7)kg/m2 and(27±7)kg/m2 respectively at 9,12 and 18 months(P＜0.05).The mean excess weight loss at 9,12 and 18 months postoperatively was 30%±11%、42%±13%and 45%±13% respectively.At 12 and 18 months,respectively,20%and 44%of patients had＞50%excess weight loss.The obesity-related comorbidities resolved or improved in 66%～100%of the patients at 12 and 18 months postoperatively.Complications occurred in 4 cases,among them 3 cases were cured conservatively and in 1 case reoperation was performed. Conclusions Based on short-term follow-up results,LAGB is a safe,effective and feasible technique in the treatment of patients with morbid obesity and obesity-related comorbidities.
