Despite leakages remaining a worrisome complication, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the preferred choice for most bariatric surgeons in Italy. In light of the emerging trend to discharge patients on postoperative day (POD) 1 or to consider LSG as an outpatient procedure, we felt it useful in selected cases to define a treatment protocol aimed to manage patients presenting with an acute postoperative leakage.

Abstract

Despite leakages remaining a worrisome complication, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) has become the preferred choice for most bariatric surgeons in Italy. In light of the emerging trend to discharge patients on postoperative day (POD) 1 or to consider LSG as an outpatient procedure, we felt it useful in selected cases to define a treatment protocol aimed to manage patients presenting with an acute postoperative leakage.
