Closure of mesenteric defects during Roux-en-Y gastric bypass for obesity: A systematic review and meta-analysis protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Closure of mesenteric defects during laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) has not been fully established as standard operative practice. However, in recent years a body of evidence has emerged suggesting that non-closure of defects leads to increased rates of internal herniation and its potential consequences, including the need for reoperation, along with an associated morbidity and mortality risk. Within the emerging literature there has also been some evidence of a greater risk of 30-day complications in closure groups. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to look at the existing evidence and provide guidance on whether closure of mesenteric defects should be standard operative practice.

Methods

The systematic review and meta-analysis has been registered a priori. A literature search will be performed interrogating the Medline and Embase databases via Ovid, and also the Cochrane Controlled Register of Trials (CENTRAL), to identify randomised and non-randomised studies reporting comparative outcomes following closure vs. non-closure of mesenteric defects during RYGB. The primary outcome will be reoperation for small bowel obstruction, and secondary outcomes will include internal herniation, jejuno-jejunal anastomosis narrowing or kinking, adhesions, complications (<30?days and >30?days after surgery), 30-day mortality, reoperation, and any other outcome deemed relevant and reported in more than one study.

Project description:IntroductionType 2 diabetes (T2D) in association with obesity is an increasing disease burden. Bariatric surgery is the only effective therapy for achieving remission of T2D among those with morbid obesity. It is unclear which of the two most commonly performed types of bariatric surgery, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB), is most effective for obese patients with T2D. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether LSG or LRYGB is more effective in achieving HbA1c<6% (<42 mmol/mol) without the use of diabetes medication at 5 years.Methods and analysisSingle-centre, double-blind (assessor and patient), parallel, randomised clinical trial (RCT) conducted in New Zealand, targeting 106 patients. Eligibility criteria include age 20-55 years, T2D of at least 6 months duration and body mass index 35-65 kg/m(2) for at least 5 years. Randomisation 1:1 to LSG or LRYGB, used random number codes disclosed to the operating surgeon after induction of anaesthesia. A standard medication adjustment schedule will be used during postoperative metabolic assessments. Secondary outcomes include proportions achieving HbA1c<5.7% (39 mmol/mol) or HbA1c<6.5% (48 mmol/mol) without the use of diabetes medication, comparative weight loss, obesity-related comorbidity, operative complications, revision rate, mortality, quality of life, anxiety and depression scores. Exploratory outcomes include changes in satiety, gut hormone and gut microbiota to gain underlying mechanistic insights into T2D remission.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval was obtained from the New Zealand regional ethics committee (NZ93405) who also provided independent safety monitoring of the trial. Study commenced in September 2011. Recruitment completed in October 2014. Data collection is ongoing. Results will be reported in manuscripts submitted to peer-reviewed journals and in presentations at national and international meetings.Trial registration numbersACTRN12611000751976, NCT01486680; Pre-results.
