Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
When forming a Hand-Sewn GJS of the end-to-side type, ischemia zones do not occur. The anastomosis has a more physiological geometry, there is no conflict between the lines of stapled sutures.
Thus, we put forward the assumption that a serious risk factor for the development of a GJS ulcer was eliminated when switching to a completely manual technique for the GJS formation when performing MGB-OAGB.
The study is aimed at the compare the incidence of GJS ulcers during MGB-OAGB, depending on the techniques of anastomosis formation.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
However, with the increase in the number of surgeries and the accumulation of experience, a number of problems associated with this surgery become apparent. Malabsorption risks are minimized by measuring the length of the common loop and cutting off a strictly defined percentage of the small intestine from digestion. Research on bile reflux effects is currently ongoing, but in order to reduce it, the surgical technique has been modified by lengthening the gastric tube \[2\]. One of the most serious problems is the appearance of gastrojejunostomy (GJS) ulcers. As a rule, they are difficult to treat and can cause bleeding. Their number seriously varies in different publications from 2% to 13% \[7, 8\]. These figures, despite the attractiveness of the new surgery, make many surgeons refrain from performing MGB-OAGB in their routine practice. The causes of ulcers are not fully understood and require further study, and it is also possible to change the technique of anastomosis.
Working Hypothesis We assume that the frequency of gastrojejunostomy ulcers after MGB-OAGB is associated with the peculiarities of the side-to-side GJS formation, which is currently the "gold standard" for this procedure. The geometry of such anastomosis leads to the formation of a narrow strip of the gastric wall between two stapler lines (between the suture from the 2nd cassette during the formation of the "small ventricle" and directly from the suture from the cassette during the GJS formation). Perhaps this section of the stomach wall is prone to ischemia, which can certainly increase the risk of ulcer formation. It is also possible that a zone with impaired blood supply may also form in the "blind pocket" above the anastomosis.
When forming a Hand-sewn GJS of the end-to-side type, ischemia zones do not occur. The anastomosis has a more physiological geometry, there is no conflict between the lines of stapled sutures.
Thus, we put forward the assumption that a serious risk factor for the development of a GJS ulcer was eliminated when switching to a completely Hand-sewn technique for the GJS formation when performing MGB-OAGB.
Purpose of the Study To compare the incidence of GJS ulcers during MGB-OAGB, depending on the techniques of anastomosis formation.
Materials and Research Methods In order to assess the target parameter and the endpoint of the study, all patients who underwent surgical treatment will undergo a video endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract 6 months after surgical treatment.
As research tools, it is planned to use instrumental, laboratory and surgery equipment, as well as all other necessary material and technical equipment of the above medical institutions.
Treatment Protocol All eligible and randomized patients will undergo laparoscopic MGB-OAGB no later than 1 month after randomization and enrollment. As part of a standardized preoperative assessment, a set of examinations will be performed, see Appendix 2.
Standardized surgery protocol:
* One-time antibacterial prophylaxis is performed, activities are carried out for the induction of anesthesia, tracheal intubation and the implementation of inhalation anesthesia with mechanical ventilation in accordance with the local standards of the participating centers.
* Patient is placed in the supine position with the head of the bed elevated at 30° (Fowler's position).
* A carboxyperitoneum is created with a pressure of 12-16 mm Hg.
* Five trocars are installed in the upper mesogastrium according to the accepted technique for performing surgical interventions on the upper floor of the abdominal cavity in each specific clinical center.
* By one of the types of surgical energy (ultrasound, bipolar, monopolar) along the lesser curvature of the stomach, the lesser omentum is dissected and the omentum is entered from the omental bag at or distal to the crow's foot, the minimally necessary retrogastric adhesiolysis is performed.
* The gastroesophageal junction and the angle of His are mobilized. Then the stomach is transected using linear endoscopic staplers in such a way as to create an isolated narrow gastric tube ("small ventricle") at least 17-18 cm long and 15-20 mm wide (diameter of gastric tube used 36-39 Fr). Blue, green, gold, purple, and black cassettes (cassettes or cartridges in blue, green, black, or purple) can be used.
* Staple line hemostasis by applying clips.
* The greater omentum may be transversely incised depending on individual anatomy.
* Visualization of the ligament of Treitz.
* Measurement of the length of the small intestine at a distance of at least 5 m.
* A gastroenterostomy is performed at a distance of 150-200 cm from the ligament of Treitz using a linear stapler in group A and using a fully Hand-sewn suture in group B.
* Gastrotomy at the end section of the stapler line of the distal "small ventricle" and enterotomy at 150-200 cm from the ligament of Treitz are performed in group A. GJS is formed using a blue or purple cartridge (the height of the braces is 3.5 mm). The width of the formed anastomosis is calibrated according to the branch of the apparatus of 35-40 cm. The technological hole is closed with absorbable monofilament suture material with a biodegradation time of not more than 180 days on a pricking needle.
* Extended gastrotomy by cutting off the end stapler line (1st cassette, when forming the "small ventricle") is performed in group B. Enterotomy with a length of 35-40 mm is performed at a distance of 150-200 cm from the ligament of Treitz. GJS is formed by a manual single-row continuous suture using any absorbable monofilament suture material with a biodegradation period of not more than 180 days on a pricking needle.
* Performing an anastomosis leak test with a solution of methylene blue or bubble leak test.
* Testing for hemostasis.
* Desufflation of gas and suturing of trocar wounds are carried out.
After the surgical intervention, if necessary, the patient can be in the intensive care unit and monitoring until the stabilization of the condition, then transferred to the specialized surgical department.
Recommendations for nutrition after surgery: oral intake of light glucose-containing liquids begins on the first postoperative day (6-12 hours after surgery). On the second day after the surgery, the intake of concentrated glucose-containing and complex nutritional drinks begins.
After discharge from the hospital, the patient must adhere to the protocol diet (Appendix 3). All patients will be required to take preventive therapy with an established PPIs 40 mg daily for 6 months after surgery.
Intermediate Control From the moment of discharge from the hospital until the moment of assessment of the target parameter, remote monitoring will be carried out to control the patient's compliance (regularity of PPI intake, adherence to recommendations on the postoperative diet) and complaints, possibly associated with the early onset of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the upper gastrointestinal tract. Telephone control will be carried out in periods of 1, 2, 3 and 5 months after surgical treatment.
In the event of a premature referral of the patient or detection of complaints during the intermediate control, indicating the possible development of erosive and ulcerative lesions of the upper gastrointestinal tract, the patient will undergo a premature flexible endoscopy of the upper gastrointestinal tract. If a GJS ulcer is detected, the endpoint will prematurely be assessed as positive.
Expected Results It is expected to reveal a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of GJS ulceration when performing MGB-OAGB using a Hand-sewn anastomosis technique compared with a stapled technique.
