Popis: | BACKGROUND It is unknown whether surgically treated achalasia cases regain or surpass their usual weight into obesity or overweight in the long-term post-operative period. Here, we aimed to assess the incidence of overweight/obesity (Ob/Ow) and the risk for reoccurrence up to 48 months post-laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM). METHODS We performed a cohort of 114 achalasia cases undergoing LHM. All patients had a confirmed diagnosis of achalasia and had no added comorbidities. We followed up the body mass index (BMI) at the immediate post-operative period, and at one-, six-, 12-, 24-, and 48 months after LHM. We measured the incidence of Ob/Ow and its reoccurrence risk with Cox regression. KEY RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In the immediate post-operative period, the incidence of Ob/Ow was significantly less than the usual BMI (before the onset of symptoms) (28.2% vs 66.3%). From the sixth to the 48th month, there was a progressive increase in the incidence of Ob/Ow and at this timepoint the percent of Ob/Ow was not statistically different from the usual BMI. The most significant hazard for Ob/Ow reoccurrence in the long term following LHM is a usual BMI with obesity grade I or III and males lacking pre-surgical weight loss. INFERENCES Achalasia cases undergoing surgical treatment should be monitored closely in the post-operative period for weight regain, regardless of their pre-operative BMI. Notably, males who before the onset of symptoms were obese or overweight are at significantly increased risk of regaining or surpassing their weight, despite most having lost weight pre-surgically. |
