摘要

Introduction

Bariatric surgery is primarily performed using minimally invasive techniques. Intraoperative conversion to open is associated with increased complications. This study aimed to provide a contemporary overview of frequency of conversion to open, compare complication rates and determine factors associated with conversion.

Methods

The MBSAQIP database from 2020 to 2022 was analyzed to identify two cohorts; those who underwent a minimally invasive approach and those who required conversion to open. Patients undergoing primary sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) and single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass (SADI) were included. Univariate analysis was performed to characterize differences and assess for rate of complications between cohorts. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine factors associated with conversion and 30-day serious complications.

Results

A total of 524 224 patients were identified of which 181 (0.03%) required conversion to open. Factors associated with increased risk of conversion to open included age, BMI, lower albumin, sleep apnea, undergoing RYBG or BPD-DS (vs. SG) and previous foregut surgery. Patients converted were more likely to have 30-day reoperation, reintervention, or readmission on bivariate analysis. Conversion to open was also an independent predictor of serious complications on multivariate analysis.

Conclusion

Conversion to open in bariatric surgery is rare but associated with significant increased risk of postoperative complications. Patients at increased risk may benefit from preoperative risk mitigation, such as those undergoing BPD-DS or RYGB, with sleep apnea, or with a history of previous foregut surgery.
