The Polya gastrectomy with retrocolic end-to- 145 side gastrojejunostomy has become a commonly performed 146 modification of the Billroth II procedure [2]. Franz von Hofmeister 147 described a partial gastrectomy with a retrocolic gastrojejunos- 148 tomy involving the greater curvature [2,28]. Reconstruction following 149 partial gastrectomy may be simple or difficult depending partly on 150 the build of the patient and partly on the extent and nature of the 151 disease process. Thus Billroth II gastrectomy is usually used for an 152 emergency perforated large duodenal ulcer not suitable for simple 153 omental patch closure and when a duodenal anastomosis (Billroth 154 1) cannot easily be made [29]. A Billroth I gastrectomy is not a bypass 155 procedure and is suitable for a resistant benign gastric ulcer after 156 excluding malignancy [14,27]. The Billroth II is associated with prob- 157 lems of bile reflux into the gastric remnant and oesophagus, and a 158 higher risk of stomal ulceration. Thus, approximately two-thirds of 159 stomach should be resected to avoid repeated antral exposure to 160 bile [6,14]. For the theoretical benefits of delaying gastric emptying 161 97Q10 Q13 Fig. 1.

Cherala, MD, MPH Suggested citation for this article: Cherala SS. Gastric bypass surgeries in New Hampshire, 1996-2007. Prev Chronic Dis 2012;9:110089. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5888/pcd9.110089 . PEER REVIEWED Abstract Introduction Obesity is a national epidemic. Gastric bypass surgery may be the only option that provides significant long-term weight loss for people who are morbidly obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥40 kg/m2 ) or for people who have a BMI of 35 or higher and have an obesity-related comorbidity. The objective of this study was to assess trends in gastric bypass surgery in New Hampshire. Methods Data from 1996 to 2007 from the New Hampshire Inpatient Hospital Discharge data set were analyzed. Records for patients with a gastric bypass surgery code were identified, and data on patients and hospitalizations were collected. A joinpoint regression model was used to analyze trends in surgery rates. Differences between patients and payer types were analyzed by using the Cochran–Mantel–Haenszel χ2 test. Results The annual rate of gastric bypass surgery increased significantly from 3.3 to 22.4 per 100,000 adults between 1996 and 2007. The in-hospital death rate decreased significantly from 11% in 1996 to 1% in 2007. A greater proportion of women (78.1% during the study period) than men had this surgery. The average charge of a surgery decreased significantly from $44,484 in 1996 to $43,907 in 2007; by 2007, total annual charges were $13.9 million.

Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Medicine 1676. 56 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-0991-0. Obesity is rising in pandemic proportions. At present, one third of the world’s population has become overweight or obese, and estimates predict 60% in 2030. Thus, the problem is gigantic. Obesity is associated with numerous diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea and cancer. Untreated obesity decreases life expectancy by about 10 years. Gastric bypass has been one of the cornerstones of surgical treatment. Since 1994 this is done by laparoscopic technique (LRYGB) In this thesis, we have primarily used data from our national quality register, the Scandinavian Obesity Surgical Registry (SOReg), on patients that have been operated with LRYGB. In the first paper, we evaluated the use of a novel suture for closing the gastrojejunostomy (upper anastomosis). Paper II and III focused on incidence, risk factors, treatment and outcome of anastomotic leaks.

    Clinical Policy: Bariatric Surgery Reference Number: NH. CP.MP.37 Coding Implications Effective Date: 06/09 Revision Log Last Review Date: 04/18 See Important Reminder at the end of this policy for important regulatory and legal information. Description There are two categories of bariatric surgery: restrictive procedures and malabsorptive procedures. Gastric restrictive procedures include procedures where a small pouch is created in the stomach to restrict the amount of food that can be eaten, resulting in weight loss. The laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are examples of restrictive procedures. Malabsorptive procedures bypass portions of the stomach and intestines causing incomplete digestion and absorption of food. Duodenal switch is an example of a malabsorptive procedure. Roux-en-y gastric bypass (RYGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS), and biliopancreatic diversion with gastric reduction duodenal switch (BPD-GRDS) are examples of restrictive and malabsorptive procedures. LAGB devices are currently not FDA approved for adolescents less than 18 years, but an industry- sponsored prospective study is in progress, and numerous retrospective studies of adolescents have been published with favorable results. Policy/Criteria It is the policy of NH Healthy Families that the bariatric surgery procedures LAGB, LSG, and laparoscopic RYGB for adolescents and adults and laparoscopic BPD-DS/BPD-GRDS for adults are medically necessary when meeting the following criteria under section I through III: I. Participating providers that are MBSAQIP (Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program for the American College of Surgeons) accredited have demonstrated a commitment to excellence in ethics, quality and patient care.

We also examined the size of resected specimens in each procedure.
