The utilization rates of laparoscopic gastric banding (LAGB) declined worldwide from 42.3% in 2008 to 1.8% in 2018. Rates of complications requiring removal may reach 40-50% in the medium to long term. Bowel obstruction is a rare but severe complication that occurs after LAGB. A comprehensive literature search in PubMed was carried out to identify all available case reports of intestinal obstruction after gastric banding. The search terms were as follows: "intestinal obstruction", "small bowel obstruction", "gastric band", "gastric banding", "gastric band complications", and "laparoscopic gastric band obstruction"...

Background Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori ) is one of the most prevalent causes of chronic gastritis that can lead to gastric cancer if left untreated. Currently, endoscopy and histology are the gold standard tests for the diagnosis of H. pylori gastritis. Recently, studies have shown the utility of narrow-band imaging (NBI) in predicting H. pylori gastritis. Therefore, we aimed to determine the diagnostic accuracy of NBI in predicting H. pylori gastritis in patients with dyspepsia. Methodology After obtaining approval from the Ethical Review Committee, Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplantation, this cross-sectional study was conducted in the outpatient Clinic of Hepatogastroenterology of the institute...

INTRODUCTION: Adjustable gastric banding (AGB) used to be a popular bariatric procedure. However, it fails in more than half of those operated on in the long term, becomes ineffective and must be removed. Therefore, the use of AGB has been in decline globally. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are the most used bariatric revision surgeries when AGB is removed. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a woman after AGB removal and conversion to SG who developed a stenosis of the sleeve...

Endoscopy is mandatory to detect early gastric cancer (EGC). When considering the cost-effectiveness of the endoscopic screening of EGC, risk stratification by combining serum pepsinogen values and anti- H. pylori IgG antibody values is very promising. After the detection of suspicious lesions of EGC, a detailed observation using magnifying endoscopy with band-limited light is necessary, which reveals an irregular microsurface and/or an irregular microvascular pattern with demarcation lines in the case of cancerous lesions...

Antimicrobial peptides, such as bacteriocin, produced by probiotics have become a promising novel class of therapeutic agents for treating infectious diseases. Selected lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from fermented foods with probiotic potential were evaluated for various tests, including exopolysaccharide production, antibiotic susceptibility, acid and bile tolerance, antibacterial activity, and cell adhesion and cytotoxicity to gastric cell lines. Six selected LAB strains maintained their high viability under gastrointestinal conditions, produced high exopolysaccharides, showed no or less cytotoxicity, and adhered successfully to gastric cells...

Obesity is an important public health concern worldwide. In Saudi Arabia, the overall prevalence of obesity has increased in both men and women in recent decades. The laparoscopic approach to bariatric surgery was first reported in the 1990s, with laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) developed soon after. The performance of bariatric procedures has increased rapidly in recent years, with safety and efficacy data available for the surgical treatment of obesity and related metabolic disorders. Herein, we report a challenging condition of a female patient who underwent LAGB insertion in 2013...
