Abstract

During a 7 year period, 200 consecutive morbidly obese patients underwent a standardized gastric exclusion procedure. Group A was composed of the first 120 patients and Group B of the last 80 patients. In Group A, 22 patients had undergone a previous cholecystectomy and 12 patients had a cholecystectomy at the time of gastric exclusion because of positive diagnostic studies or palpation of stones. Of the remaining 87 patients in this initial group who were at risk for the development of gallbladder disease, 24 (27.6 percent) required a cholecystectomy in the first 3 postoperative years (mean 15.6 months). Twelve patients had acute cholecystitis, 3 patients had choledocholithiasis, and 1 patient had acute gallstone pancreatitis. In Group B, 18 patients had a previous cholecystectomy, 15 had positive diagnostic studies (ultrasonography and oral cholecystography) preoperatively, and 47 had negative studies. Cholecystectomy was routinely performed at the time of gastric exclusion surgery in the 62 patients with gallbladders in Group B. Of the 47 patients who had normal preoperative diagnostic studies, 40 (85.1 percent) had abnormal histologic findings in the gallbladder. Only seven patients in Group B had a normal gallbladder (14.7 percent). We conclude that gallbladder disease is considerably more frequent in the morbidly obese population (91.3 percent) than has previously been recognized, that diagnostic studies are frequently inaccurate, and that postoperative gallbladder dise…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
