Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is most commonly performed bariatric/metabolic surgery. LSG is performed in patients with obesity and/or obesity-related comorbidities. During LSG, the stomach was resected from 5 cm proximal to the pylorus to the angle of His, guided by a 36-French bougie. In patients with hiatal hernia, concomitant HHR was also performed with LSG using non-absorbable sutures. Routine oral potassium-competitive acid blocker (PCAB) was prescribed for 3 months after surgery and the discontinuation of PCAB was determined based on GERD symptoms at the 3-month visit.
