Clinical efficacy of laparoscopic biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch for obesity / 中华消化外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) for obesity.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 10 patients with obesity who were admitted to the China-Japan Union Hospital Affiliated to Jilin University from September 2019 to January 2020 were collected.There were 7 male and 3 females, aged (32±9)years. Patients underwent laparoscopic BPD-DS. Observation indicators(1) intraoperative and postoperative situations;(2) follow-up.Follow-up was performed by telephone interview and wechat up to July 2020, to detect complications, physical index, remission of preoperative comorbidity and blood biochemical index at 3 months and 6 months after operation. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Repeated data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA and pariwise comparison was done using the LSD method. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were represented as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-suqare test. Results:(1) Intraoperative and postoperative situations10 patients underwent successfully laparoscopic BPD-DS, including 1 patient undergoing concomitant cholecystectomy due to gallstone disease. There was no obvious hemorrhage, conversion to open surgery or perioperative death for the 10 patients. The operation time and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (256±28)minutes and 11 days(range, 4-38 days). Two patients had postoperative complications. (2) Follow-up 10 patients were followed up for 6 months. During the follow-up, 3 patients had increased frequency of defecation, with 3-5 times per day, 7 patients had defecation frequency of 1-2 times per day. Of 10 patients, 4 cases had postoperative cholestasis, 2 cases development to gallstone, and the remaining 4 patients had no abnor-mality. The body weight, body mass index, waist circumference of 10 patients were (139±22)kg, (46±10)kg/m 2,(139±14)cm before operation, (107±19)kg, (35±8)kg/m 2, (118±17)cm at 3 months after operation, and (92±17)kg, (30±6)kg/m 2, (104±12)cm at 6 months after operation, showing significant differences ( F=170.01, 104.42, 120.25, P<0.05). The excess body mass reduc-tion rates at 3, 6 months after operation of 10 patients were 58%±36% and 81%±42%, showing a significant difference ( t=73.00, P<0.05). Of 10 patients, cases with type 2 diabetes, hypertriglyceri-demia, hypercholesteremia, elevated low density lipoprotein cholesterin level, hyperuricemia, hypertension were 5, 4, 6, 8, 9, 9 before operation, cases with complete remission were 4, 2, 5, 5, 1, 1 at 3 months after operation, and cases with complete remission were 5, 3, 4, 6, 7, 5 at 6 months after operation. Cases with partial remission of hypertension were 8 and 4 at 3, 6 months after operation. For 5 patients with type 2 diabetes, the fasting blood glucose and hemoglobin Alc were (11.4±3.1)mmol/L and 9.3%±1.6% before operation, (5.6±1.0)mmol/L and 5.5%±0.5% at 3 months after operation, (4.9±0.5)mmol/L and 4.8%±0.5% at 6 months after operation, showing significant differences ( F=14.55, 39.84, P<0.05). Of 10 patients, the retinal-binding protein, vitamins E, serum iron, serum zinc were normal before operation, cases with deficiency of above indicators were 5, 2, 1, 1 at 3 months after operation and 3, 3, 2, 4 at 6 months after operation. There was no clinical symptoms in patents with nutrient deficiency. Cases with deficiency of vitamins A, hypocalcemia, folic acid deficiency were 2, 2, 0 before operation, 5, 0, 0 at 3 months after operation and 3, 0, 1 at 6 months after operation. No deficiency of vitamins D, vitamins B12, ferritin or anemia occurred to the 10 patients. Conclusion:Laparoscopic BPD-DS is safe and effective for obesity.
