All patients underwent vertical sleeve gastroplasty and were followed for at least one year after the operation. The study variables were: quality of life, weight loss, improvement of hypertension and diabetes, and mortality. Results Results ResultsResults Results: The sample comprised 41 patients, 13 (31.7%) men and 28 (61.3%) women, mean age was 37 years, the average weight was 136.4 kg and mean BMI 50.3 kg/m 2 ; mean follow-up was 19.1 months (12-32). There was a significant reduction in weight (96.7 kg, p < 0.001) and BMI (35.835 kg/m 2 , p < 0.001). The rate of blood pressure decreased from 56% to 31.7%, and diabetes from 14.6% to 4.8% (p < 0.001). Quality of life improved in 92.5% of patients. ConclusionConclusion Conclusion Conclusion Conclusion: There was an improvement in the quality of life in the majority of patients, achieved by means of weight loss and clinical improvement of diabetes and hypertension.

Introduction: Stomach sleeve obstruction can occur after sleeve gastrectomy (SG). It results in absolute intolerance to liquid and food intake. The obstruction of sleeve may be because of stomach torsion, twisting, kinking, folding, adhesions, and stenosis/narrowing.We present a case report of two patients with absolute intolerance to liquid intake because of sleeve obstruction. The reason for obstruction was folding, twisting, and partial torsion of the stomach sleeve after SG.
