Summary: This study analyzed patients with post-sleeve reflux who were treated with HHR, RYGB, or OADS, and assessed PPI use and reflux symptoms using questionnaires. The results showed that HHR effectively controlled reflux symptoms in the early post-operative period, while there was no significant difference in symptomatic reflux and PPI use among the different surgical methods in the mid-term follow-up. Additionally, OADS performed better in terms of GerdQ score.

Summary: Repairing a hiatal hernia during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) can reduce or prevent gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms in the post-operative period. The impact of different hiatal hernia repair techniques on GERD symptoms after SG is unclear.

Summary: After undergoing SG+HHR treatment, patients experienced a significant reduction in GERD symptoms, improvement in esophagitis, and decrease in GERD-HRQL. SG+HHR has a positive impact on GERD remission, reduction in esophagitis, and improvement in GERD-HRQL.

Summary: Concurrent hiatal hernia repair (HHR) during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) can improve gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms, especially when using the posterior repair technique, while anterior repair does not show significant benefits.

Summary: This study aimed to identify the risk factors of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The study found that 16.1% of patients developed de novo GERD symptoms after LSG, and these symptoms were significantly associated with older age and lower BMI.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the incidence of reflux symptoms, esophagitis, hiatal hernia, and their relationship with weight regain in patients 5 years after undergoing sleeve gastrectomy (SG). The results showed a high rate of persistent and de novo cases of esophagitis and hiatal hernia, many of which were asymptomatic, 5 years after SG. Weight regain and increased gastric capacity were risk factors for esophagitis, even in asymptomatic patients. Therefore, regular gastroscopy is recommended 5 years after SG, regardless of symptoms.

Summary: By comparing patients who underwent LSG and LSG with concomitant hiatal hernia repair, our study found that the rates of symptomatic and de novo GERD were higher in the LSG+HH group than in the LSG alone group.

Summary: This study aims to assess the impact of various preoperative clinical and endoscopic characteristics on the development of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and erosive esophagitis (EE) following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The results showed that the presence of a hiatal hernia and the Hill's classification were significantly associated with the development of postoperative GERD and EE.

Summary: This article presents a case of early intrathoracic sleeve migration (ITSM) due to incomplete repair of a hiatal hernia during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). The patient experienced vomiting attacks after the operation, which led to the need for laparoscopic exploration. During reoperation, acute entrapment of the upper portion of the sleeve that had migrated through the hiatus was observed. Undoing the suture and not attempting additional hiatal repair was sufficient to alleviate the symptoms. The patient had successful weight loss without reflux and proton pump inhibitor complaints at follow-up.

Summary: The study showed that overall, laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) does not significantly affect gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) symptoms, but patients without GERD prior to surgery may be at risk for new or worsening symptoms postoperatively. Further studies involving endoscopic, pathological, or manometry evaluations are necessary for a comprehensive understanding of LSG's impact on esophageal health.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of gastric tube abnormalities after SG and its relationship with esophagitis progression. The study found that abnormalities of the gastric tube are common after SG and seem to contribute partially to the high rates of GERD and esophagitis after this surgery.

Summary: The concomitant repair of hiatal hernias during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy did not show a statistically significant difference in reducing GERD symptoms in individuals with known GERD. Majority of patients experienced improvement in their symptoms, with only a small percentage showing worsening or no change.

Summary: Laparoscopic sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is commonly used for weight loss, but it can increase the risk of de-novo or recurrent GERD. A new technique combining LSG with associated fundoplication has recently been introduced. Morgagni-Larrey hernia is rare, and there is limited evidence regarding its surgical treatment. Only a few cases of incidental diagnosis of Morgagni-Larrey hernia in patients undergoing bariatric surgery have been reported. Here, we present a case of incidentally found Morgagni-Larrey hernia during bariatric surgery in a patient with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) and Hiatal Hernia (HH).

Summary: Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the preferred surgical procedure for treating severe obesity and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It provides satisfactory weight loss and resolution of GERD symptoms in most patients, but about 24.4% of patients may experience GERD symptoms postoperatively.

Summary: The study evaluated the efficacy of MSA device placement in patients with persistent or de novo GERD after sleeve gastrectomy. The results showed that MSA device placement significantly improved GERD symptoms, reduced anti-reflux medication usage, and resulted in high patient satisfaction. Further studies are needed to validate the use of MSA in patients who have undergone sleeve gastrectomy.
