    OBJECTIVE: Panniculitis is an inflammation of the subcutaneous fat common in patients defined as super-super obese (>60 kg/m2). Poor hygiene and skin infections are common in the super morbidly obese group due to impaired metabolism of subcutaneous fat tissue, especially at abdominal folding. In our study, we will discuss the short-term results of panniculitis that develops as a result of these, simultaneously with bariatric surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In our study, six super morbid obese patients with Body Mass Index (BMI) of 80 kg/m(2), 77 kg/m(2), 74 kg/m(2), 72 kg/m(2), 68 kg/m(2), 65 kg/m(2), respectively, and sub umbilical skin tissue panniculitis were evaluated. These patients underwent bariatric surgery as a result of the obesity council decision. In the preoperative evaluation of the patients, it was observed that the blood supply to the subcutaneous fat tissues under the umbilicus was impaired, and the dermis/epidermis was hypertrophied. RESULTS: Mean BMI of patients 73 kg/m(2). Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) was performed in 4 patients, Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB) was performed in 1 patient, and modified transit bipartition was performed in 1 patient. Infected erythematous lesions were detected on the skin secondary to ischemia, especially in some areas. After the patients performed the operations, a panniculectomy of approximately 70x30x20 cm was performed from under the umbilicus to the transverse line and up to the fascia. CONCLUSION: Panniculectomy and bariatric surgery are recommended in the appropriate patient group. Extensive prospective studies are required to define further the burden of infectious morbidity and mortality conferred by obesity.

    Unreported rare but serious complication: Major vascular injuries during bariatric surgery
    (Turkish Assoc Trauma Emergency Surgery, 2023) Aktokmakyan, Talar Vartanoglu; Peksen, Caghan; Savas, Osman Anal; Sumer, Aziz
    BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence, risk factors, clinical presentation, and management of major vascular injuries during bariatric surgery, with a specific focus on the role of different access methods in abdominal cavity entry. METHODS: A nationwide survey was conducted among bariatric surgeons to assess the prevalence of major vascular injuries. A questionnaire was distributed to 365 surgeons through WhatsApp groups of two national bariatric surgery societies, with 76 surgeons completing the survey. The study population included general surgeons practicing bariatric surgery, and the questionnaire consisted of 12 questions. RESULTS: Among the participants, 16.9% reported experiencing a major vascular injury during bariatric surgery. The majority of injuries (75%) occurred at the trocar entrance, with the remaining cases during the dissection phase. Notably, 66.7% of surgeons used optical trocars for access, while 27.8% employed the Veress needle technique. Early detection varied, with 45% identifying the injury immediately and 30% recognizing it within three minutes. Most injuries (52.4%) were repaired laparoscopically, and only three surgeons sought assistance from cardiovascular surgeons. CONCLUSION: Vascular injuries are infrequent but potentially serious complications in laparoscopic bariatric surgery. Understanding their incidence, timely recognition, and proper management are crucial to minimize adverse effects. The findings of this study shed light on the patterns of vascular injuries and the potential role of specific access methods, providing valuable insights for enhancing patient safety in bariatric surgery.
