About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Safety and Effectiveness Modified Scopinaro Technique in the Surgical Treatment of Obesity Compared to Classical Scopinaro Technique

The purpose of this study is to show that the modified technique Scopinaro surgery allows a better control or reduction of complications often found in nutritional pancreatic and biliary derivations, starting from the assumption of a modified technique is as effective as Scopinaro classical technique for reducing overweight and control of comorbidities in obese patients with grade II and III.

Read the detailed description

28 participants Will be recruited and will be divided into 2 groups of 14 subjects each one. One group will receive the Classic Scopinaro surgery and the other, Modified Scopinaro Surgery. In Scopinaro Surgery Modified will be held with laparotomy and median opening in layers. It will also be performed at the manufacturing drifting pancreatic and biliary derivations, Roux-en-Y, dividing the small stomach.A communication portal to be implemented and calibrated through a nasogastric tube of 10mm where a retaining ring is placed horizontal gastroplasty, in order to avoid an expansion of this communication.

In the Classical Scopinaro surgery will be done the same procedures of Scopinaro Modified surgery , but the gastroplasty will be replaced by horizontal gastrectomy.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Scopinaro SurgeryProcedure or surgery

    Classic Scopinaro Technique is a bariactric surgery that proposes the stomach will be divide in two parts: a proximal part and a distal part for performing horizontal gastrectomy. Differently what will happen in the Modified Scopinaro Surgery that will divide the stomach in two parts: a proximal part and a distal part for performing gastroplasty.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of patients with adverse events

    Patients will be followed for 18 months after surgery and will follow-up visits to collect information about body weight, complications from surgery, liver diseases, nutritional status, adverse events and evaluation of quality of life

    Measured: 18 months after the surgery.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of patients that regain weight

    Patients will be followed for 18 months after surgery and will follow-up visits to collect information about body weight.

    Measured: 18 months after the surgery.

  2. deaths

    Number of patients that died

    Measured: 18 months from the surgery
