Outcomes of Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

The aim of this study is to assess 5 year long-term outcomes of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy emphasizing weight loss and modification of comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension and gastroesophageal reflux disease from a developing country, Turkey. Prospectively-collected patient data will retrospectively reviewed. To measure the efficacy of the procedure, we will calculate the excess weight loss percentage (EWL %). Effective weight loss after LSG will accepted as more than 50%. The changes in the status of the type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, gastroesophageal reflux disease will be observed.
