Abstract:

Obesity surgery is a very effective way to ensure the continuity of weight loss in patients with morbid obesity. Although there are special complications for the type of surgery after obesity surgery, in addition to these, early and late period complications are also seen. In our study, we aimed at presenting the complications identified during or after surgery of patients we undergo bariarthric surgery due to morbid obesity. A total of 361 patients were undergoing bariatric surgery. 207 patients (57.3%) laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), 38 (10.5%) laparoscopic Roux-n-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB), 32 (8.8%) Roux-n-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), 32 (8.8%) mini gastric bypass (MGB), 28 (7.7%) laparoscopic mini gastric bypass (LMGB), 21 (5%). 8) sleeve gastrectomy (SG), 2 (%0.5) vertical band gastroplasty (VBG) and 1 (%0.2) intragastric balloon placement processes were performed. In 2 patients with Roux-n-Y gastrointestinal bypass (0.5%) anastomosis was detected. A patient with SG was caught from the stapler line. 1 patient was diagnosed with evaporation, 1 patient was injured during surgery, 44 patients (12.1%) were diagnosed with an infection in the surgical area. In 91% of patients diagnosed with an infection in the surgical area, diabetes mellitus was present. In patients with laparoscopic bariatric surgery, the infection rate in the area of surgery was 6.8%, while in open surgery this rate was up to 29.4%. In 9 patients (2.4%) Ileus, in 3 patients (0.8%) pulmonary embolism, in 8 patients (2.2%) DVT developed. Super obesity in 2 patients occurred mortality due to postoperative lungs failure. In the Bariatric Surgery, which surgery technique is preferred, it is likely that you will face morbidity. Therefore, morbid obesity patients should be cautious in terms of complications in the selection and treatment process.
