-
#1. A 35-year-old patient with a BMI of 40 undergoes bariatric surgery. The surgeon opts for a procedure known for its perioperative safety, lack of nutritional complications, and ease of availability. Which bariatric procedure is likely performed based on these characteristics? ? Gastric banding is known for its perioperative safety, lack of nutritional complications, and ease of availability.
Gastric banding
#2. What is the most common mechanism of action for gastric banding in inducing weight loss? ? Gastric banding appears to work by reducing hunger, likely through vagal mediation.
Reduction in appetite (vagally mediated)
#3. Which bariatric procedure is associated with the highest percentage of excess weight loss (EWL) at 3 years? ? BPD/DS is associated with 70–80% excess weight loss at 3 years.
Biliopancreatic diversion/duodenal switch (BPD/DS)
#4. In sleeve gastrectomy, what is considered the "Achilles heel" leading to the risk of staple line leaks? ? Sleeve gastrectomy is associated with a risk of staple line leaks, particularly at the angle of His.
Leak at the angle of His
#5. Which bariatric procedure is described as less challenging to perform than gastric bypass and evolved from the Magenstrasse and Mill operation? ? Sleeve gastrectomy is less challenging to perform than gastric bypass and evolved from the Magenstrasse and Mill operation.
Sleeve gastrectomy
#6. Which bariatric procedure is characterized by having a silicone ring placed around the gastric pouch to reduce weight regain, despite no proven benefit by randomized controlled trials (RCT)? ? Banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass involves placing a silicone ring around the gastric pouch to reduce weight regain, but its benefit has not been demonstrated by RCTs.
Banded Roux-en-Y gastric bypass
#7. What is the potential advantage of the single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) compared to the duodenal switch (DS)? ? SADI-S has the potential advantage of a shorter operating time compared to DS.
Shorter operating time
#8. A patient who underwent gastric banding presents with complications several months later. What is the most common reason for band removal in such cases? ? Late complications, often due to inadequate follow-up, lead to the removal of gastric bands in a significant number of cases.
Late intra-abdominal complications
#9. In sleeve gastrectomy, when does a staple line leak at the angle of His typically present? ? A staple line leak at the angle of His in sleeve gastrectomy typically presents any time after discharge up to 30 days post-surgery.
Up to 30 days post-surgery
#10. What is the recommended frequency of assessment for routine metabolic and nutritional monitoring in the first postoperative year after bariatric surgery? ? Routine metabolic and nutritional monitoring is recommended every 3–6 months in the first postoperative year after bariatric surgery.
3–6 monthly
#11. What is the primary advantage of shared-care arrangements in the postoperative management of bariatric surgery patients? a) Weight loss monitoring b) Routine metabolic and nutritional monitoring ? Shared-care arrangements facilitate routine metabolic and nutritional monitoring in the postoperative management of bariatric surgery patients.
Routine metabolic and nutritional monitoring
#12. What is the potential risk associated with severe mental health issues after gastric bypass? ? There is a slightly increased risk of suicide after gastric bypass in patients with severe mental health issues.
Increased risk of suicide
