Özet
Sleeve gastrectomy is the most preferred surgical procedure in obese patients. In the literature, the necessity of pathological examination of the specimen is emphasized because of malignant case reports. In this study, we aimed to present the histopathological findings of the specimens of our patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy due to obesity in the light of the literature. Patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy due to obesity between 2014-2019 in our clinic were retrospectively screened. Endoscopy was not performed in patients with no symptoms. After the obesity committee, the patients were operated and the specimens were sent for routine histopathological examination. Patients' age, gender, body mass index, surgical procedure information, and histopathological features of resected gastric specimens were analyzed. A total of 411 patients were included in the study and there were 309 (75.2%) female patients. The overall mean age was 35 ± 10.3 and the mean body mass index was 44.7 ± 5.2 kg/m2. The pathology of 85 (20.7%) of the patients were reported as completely normal. Abnormal pathological findings were detected in 326 (79.3%) patients. No malignant finding was found in the specimen pathology results. The necessity of endoscopic examination before sleeve gastrectomy is controversial. Even if no malignant pathological result was detected in our study, we believe that routine pathological examination is required for medicolegal reasons. © 2021 Ondokuz Mayis Universitesi.
