Analysis of Gastric Physiology After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) With or Without Antral Preservation in Relation to Metabolic Response: a Randomised Study

ConclusionsGastric emptying is faster in patients with antrum resection. The distance does not influence the gastric emptying of diabetic patients. Other mechanisms may explain metabolic response besides GLP-1 and its association with improvements in diabetes via gastric emptying.
