New twist on sleeve gastrectomy aims to cut complications

NCT ID NCT06271317

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new version of sleeve gastrectomy (a weight loss surgery) that adds a Nissen fundoplication to reduce acid reflux. Researchers will compare 30-day complication rates between the new technique and standard sleeve gastrectomy in 100 adults with obesity. The goal is to see if the new approach is safer in the short term.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ€” not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Nissen sleeve gastrectomy (surgical procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that the Nissen sleeve technique is as safe as standard sleeve gastrectomy, offering an option that may reduce acid reflux after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study (100 participants) comparing two surgical techniques. It only looks at complications within 30 days, so long-term safety and effectiveness are not yet known.
