Objective To evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) in the treatment of obesity with different degrees of obesity.Methods The clinicopathologic data of patients received LSG in this hospital from October 2016 to October 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. The effect of LSG on postoperative weight loss in patients with different degrees of obesity were analyzed too.Results ① A total of 161 patients with simple obesity were included in this study, including 40 cases of degree Ⅰ obesity, 41 cases of degree Ⅱ obesity, 61 cases of degree Ⅲ obesity, and 19 cases of super obesity. All operations were successfully completed, there was no conversion to laparotomy or mortality. The postoperative bleeding occurred in 4 (2.5%) cases, nausea and vomiting occurred in 97 (60.2%) cases during hospitalization, and 143, 130, and 122 cases were followed up in 1-, 2-, and 3-year after operation. The body mass indexes (BMIs) were decreased significantly in postoperative 1-, 2-, and 3-year (P<0.05) as compared with their preoperative values, respectively. The excess BMI loss percentage(EBMIL%) in postoperative 1-, 2-, and 3-year were (87.4±25.7)%, (84.6±30.5)%, and (88.8±20.4)%, respectively. The rates of weight regaining were 3.8% (5/130) and 4.9% (6/122) in 2- and 3-year following-up, respectively. ② There were no remarkable changes in the trend of BMI in patients with degree Ⅰ and Ⅱ obesity [the EBMIL% changes from postoperative year-1 to year-3 were (–2.3±1.1)% and (3.3±1.5)%, respectively]. Conversely, there were remarkable changes in the trend of BMI in patients with degree Ⅲ obesity and super obesity [the EBMIL% changes from postoperative year-1 to year-3 were (–7.1±1.9)% and (–11.6±5.3)%, respectively].Conclusions From the results of this study, LSG has a good effect on weight loss in the treatment of patients withdegree Ⅰ and Ⅱ obesity. The long-term efficacy of LSG in patients with degree Ⅲ and super obesity, whether to take other bariatric procedures, whether to perform the second operation, and the timing of the second operation need to be further explored.
