    Abstract Gastrocutaneous fistula (GCF) is a devastating complication that can arise after bariatric and metabolic surgery (BMS). This systematic review examines the success rate of closure techniques of GCF. A systematic search was conducted across MEDLINE, Embase and Cochrane databases to identify studies which reported on closure techniques of GCF after BMS in adults. Thirty-three studies (n = 108 patients) were included. Seventeen different techniques were used to close GCF across all studies. The most popular were stents (n = 17), tissue sealants (n = 12) and over-the-scope clips (n = 11). Twenty-one studies used multiple techniques to attempt closure, including endoscopic vacuum therapy and revisional surgery. This systematic review demonstrates current practice focusing on endoscopic methods such as stents and over-the-scope clips, with relative success in closing GCF.

    Abstract Purpose: Renal transplantation (RT) is not recommended above BMI 40 kg/m
    Methods: We reviewed data from 31 patients with RF referred for BS between 2013 and 2021. We compared the outcomes of patients with RF who underwent BS to those who were referred but did not undergo BS. Controls matched for age/BMI/comorbidity (MC) but without RF were used for comparison.
    Results: Of 31 patients referred, 19 proceeded with BS (68% female, median age 52 years, BMI 46.2 ± 4.9 kg/m
    Conclusion: BS in patients with RF increased access to RT and was safe and effective. We therefore recommend consideration of BS in patients with obesity and RF in specialised units.

    Abstract Aims: Norepinephrine (NE) is a known regulator of adipose tissue (AT) metabolism, angiogenesis, vasoconstriction and fibrosis. This may be through autocrine/paracrine effects on local resistance vessel function and morphology. The aims of this study were to investigate, in human subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue (SAT and OAT): NE synthesis, angiogenesis, NE-mediated arteriolar vasoconstriction, the induction of collagen gene expression and its deposition in non-diabetic versus diabetic obese subjects.
    Materials and methods: SAT and OAT from obese patients were used to investigate tissue NE content, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) density, angiogenesis including capillary density, angiogenic capacity and angiogenic gene expression, NE-mediated arteriolar vasoconstriction and collagen deposition.
    Key findings: In the non-diabetic group, NE concentration, TH immunoreactivity, angiogenesis and maximal vasoconstriction were significantly higher in OAT compared to SAT (p < 0.05). However, arterioles from OAT showed lower NE sensitivity compared to SAT (10
    Significance: SAT depot in non-diabetic obese patients exhibited relatively low NE synthesis, angiogenesis, tissue fibrosis and high vasoreactivity, due to preserved NE sensitivity. The local NE synthesis in OAT and diabetes desensitizes NE-induced vasoconstriction, and may also explain the greater tissue angiogenesis and fibrosis in these depots.

The aims of this study were to investigate, in human subcutaneous and omental adipose tissue (SAT and OAT): NE synthesis, angiogenesis, NE-mediated arteriolar vasoconstriction, the induction of collagen gene expression and its deposition in non-diabetic versus diabetic obese subjects. SAT and OAT from obese patients were used to investigate tissue NE content, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) density, angiogenesis including capillary density, angiogenic capacity and angiogenic gene expression, NE-mediated arteriolar vasoconstriction and collagen deposition. In the non-diabetic group, NE concentration, TH immunoreactivity, angiogenesis and maximal vasoconstriction were significantly higher in OAT compared to SAT (p < 0.05). However, arterioles from OAT showed lower NE sensitivity compared to SAT (10⁻⁸ M to 10–⁷.⁵ M, p < 0.05). A depot-specific difference in collagen deposition was also observed, being greater in OAT than SAT. In the diabetic group, no significant depot-specific differences were seen in NE synthesis, angiogenesis, vasoconstriction or collagen deposition. SAT arterioles showed significantly lower sensitivity to NE (10⁻⁸ M to 10–⁷.⁵ M, p < 0.05) compared to the non-diabetic group. SAT depot in non-diabetic obese patients exhibited relatively low NE synthesis, angiogenesis, tissue fibrosis and high vasoreactivity, due to preserved NE sensitivity. The local NE synthesis in OAT and diabetes desensitizes NE-induced vasoconstriction, and may also explain the greater tissue angiogenesis and fibrosis in these depots.

  9. Article ; Online: Gastro-Colic Fistula After Sleeve Gastrectomy Leak: Our Experience with this Rare Complication.

    Abstract Background: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is one of the commonest bariatric procedure performed worldwide (Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery 7:314-6, 2014). Leaks reported in 1 to 7% of cases are difficult to manage after SG. Leaks can be graded into acute (within 7 days), early (within 1-6 weeks), late (after 6 weeks) and chronic (after 12 weeks) (Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery 7:314-6, 2014). Oesophageal stents can be used for acute leaks. Gastro-colic fistula (GCF) is a rare complication following a chronic leak after SG (Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery 7:314-6, 2014). We would like to share our experience of a rare and challenging case of GCF after SG leak.
    Method: Prospectively collected data in our tertiary bariatric centre was retrieved.
    Results: A 31-year-old female with body mass index (BMI) of 46.2 kg/m
    Conclusion: SG leaks can add long-term morbidity. Stent can be used successfully to treat SG leak if used judiciously. There should be low threshold for investigating patients with EWL of > 100% for anatomical complications like stricture, fistula or kink in the gastric sleeve. We wanted to make the bariatric fraternity aware of a rare late (> 12 weeks) complication of gastro-colic fistula after successfully treated SG leak. Limited literature is published about this rare complication and its management which ranges from conservative management to stent placement to surgical intervention (Asian Journal of Endoscopic Surgery 7:314-6, 2014; Clinical Case Reports 6:1342-1346, 2008; Surgery for Obesity and Related Diseases 6:308-12, 2010). It can be dealt with successfully with minimally invasive technique by a multidisciplinary team in an experienced tertiary bariatric unit.
