Abstract
BACKGROUND: Knowledge regarding the feasibility and safety of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) in obese liver transplant recipients is scarce. We report our experience of sleeve gastrectomy following liver transplantation (LT). METHODS: All patients who had undergone LT and subsequently underwent SG at our institution were retrospectively reviewed. Surgical outcomes, liver and kidney function tests, outcomes of obesity-related comorbidities, and excess weight loss were analyzed. RESULTS: Between May 2008 and February 2015, six consecutive patients underwent SG after LT. Three procedures (50%) were performed totally by laparoscopy, and three by upfront laparotomy for concomitant incisional hernia complex repair. Within the first 30 days, one complication occurred: early gastric fistula that required multiple endoscopic procedures and re-intervention, followed by death 19 months after SG due to multi-organ failure. Another patient had one late complication: chronic infection on a parietal mesh successfully controlled by mesh removal. Excess weight loss averaged 76% at 2 years with a median BMI of 28 (21-39) kg/m2. Median follow-up was 37.2 months (range 13-101 months). Median length of stay was 9 days (range: 6-81 days). CONCLUSIONS: SG is technically feasible after LT and resulted in weight loss without adversely affecting graft function and immunosuppression. However, morbidity and mortality are high.
