Introduction:
Obesity is a serious public health problem worldwide where
about and WHO estimates that more than 300 million people are obese.
The prevalence of obesity in Serbia is 56%. The most commonly performed
bariatric surgery for the treatment of obesity is laparoscopic gastric sleeve
resection (LGS).
Goal:
This study aims to identify the histopathological features of the gastric
mucosa after the laparoscopic gastric sleeve resection; to estimate the
frequency of
Helicobacter pylori
infection; to investigate the prevalence of
preoperatively present anaemia in the patients; to estimate the frequency of
comorbid diseases and postoperative complications in patients.
Material & Methods:
Retrospective review of medical records of all LGS
patients operated upon at Thoracic Surgery Clinic, Institute for pulmonary
diseases of Vojvodina (October 2013 - October 2017, n=86), was conducted.
Results:
Of the86patients, 65%weremale, and theaverageagewas40.74 years;
while the average BMI was 46.93 kg/m2. The most common histopathologic
changes were: chronic inactive gastritis (63%), chronic active gastritis (20%),
follicular gastritis (16%), lymphoid aggregates (10.47%) and atrophy of gastric
mucosa (8.14%). Helicobacter pylori were detected in 7 patients, all of whom
had active chronic inflammation. Intestinal metaplasia was present in 3.14% of
patients. Preoperative mild anemia was discovered in 26.7% of patients, and in
the group of patients with gastric mucosal changes a significantly higher mean
corpuscular value (MCV) value
(p<0.05
) was observed. The most common
blood type in patients with histopathologic changes of gastric mucosa was
A +.
Conclusion:
According to results of this study, the incidence of histopatological
changes of gastric mucosa in obese patients is high (59.3%), and the
health sector needs to be more proactive to reach a consensus and define
the preoperative assessment for LGS patients, including gastroscopy and
serological detection of H. pylori and more laboratory tests for preoperative
detection of megaloblastic and hypochromic anaemia.
