Zusammenfassung

Dies ist eine vergleichende Studie dreier Verfahren für operative Behandlung der Fettsucht. Es werden 235 eigene Fälle mit jejunoilealem Bypass analysiert. Die Operationsletalität war 2,1%, postoperative Komplikationen kamen 21% vor. Nur bei Patienten mit wirklich kurzem Restileum (ca. 45 cm) erreichten 70% ihr Idealgewicht. Die metabolischen Spätkomplikationen waren beträchtlich (Leberschäden in 15%, Elektrolytdefizite in 12%, Arthritis 10% etc.). In der Nachbeobachtungszeit von 14 Jahren verstarben 14 Patienten, davon 10 an den Folgen der Operation. 3 verschiedene Magen-Umgehungsverfahren werden beschrieben. In einer Sammelstatistik von 1585 Patienten lag die postoperative Letalität bei 1,6%, die der postoperativen Komplikationen bei 22%. 90% der Patienten waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Eingriff und nur bei 5% war nach 5 Jahren erneute Gewichtszunahme zu verzeichnen. Das jüngste Verfahren, die Gastroplastik nach Gomez, wird anhand seiner ersten 200 Fälle durchleuchtet: 0,5% postoperative Letalität, postoperative Komplikationen in 18,5%. Die Nachbeobachtungszeit bei diesem technisch einfachen Verfahren reicht noch nicht für einen endgültigen Vergleich aus.

Abstract

A comparative study has been made of three methods for the operative treatment of obesity. Of my own cases, 235 underwent a jejunoiliac bypass procedure, and the results have been analyzed: operative lethality 2.1%; postoperative complications 21%. Of the patients whose residual ileum was quite short (about 45 cm), about 70% reached their ideal weight. Metabolic late complications were considerable (e.g., liver damage in 15%, electrolyte deficit in 12%, and arthritis in 10%). In the late observation time of 14 years, 14 patients died, 10 of them as a result of the operation. Three different stomach-bypass procedures are described. The collective statistics compiled on 1585 patients indicated 1.6% postoperative lethality and 22% postoperative complications. Of the total patients, 90% were very satisfied with the procedure and in only 5% was a weight gain recorded after 5 years. The latest procedure is gastroplasty according to the Gomez method: the first 200 cases show 0.5% postoperative lethality and postoperative complications in 18.5%. Although this procedure is technically simple, the late observation time is not yet adequate for a definitive comparison.
