Brief 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.

Detailed description

The hypothesis is the following : the use of fibrin glue (Tissucol ®) during Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy would reduce the incidence of complications (gastric fistula, intra-abdominal hemorrhage and intra-abdominal locoregional collection). The aim is to investigate whether the use of fibrin glue (Tissucol®) during Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy reduces the incidence of postoperative complications (gastric fistula, intra-abdominal hemorrhage and intra-abdominal locoregional collection)

Interventions

The product will be given as a 2 mL bottle per patient, which will be spread along the staple line. If necessary, a second bottle of 2 mL is used. The precautions for use are described in the user manual.

A complication is considered as present if at least one of the following three items is present: * Gastric fistula * Postoperative hemorrhage * intra-abdominal locoregional collection
