Randomized Prospective Clinical Study Evaluating the Usefulness of Fibrin Glue (TISSEEL® KIT) to Prevent Gastric Fistula, Intra Abdominal Haemorrhage and Intra Abdominal Loco Regional Collections After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating tisseel and no tisseel for Morbid Obesity. Completed, enrolled 597 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy has emerged over the last 20 years as a treatment of choice in the surgical management of patients with morbid obesity. However, this restrictive procedure is accompanied by outcomes such as gastric fistula (5%), postoperative hemorrhage (1%) and intra-abdominal loco regional collections (1%). At present, there is no sufficiently reliable technique to prevent these complications.
