Later, researchers proposed that Laparoscopic leave gastrectomy (LSG) reduced the risk profile of the duodenal switch procedure in high risk patients. Additionally, LSG was accepted as a rapid single bariatric surgical procedure due to its simplicity and efficacy. The aim of this study was to describe the outcomes of LSG at a single bariatric unit in King Salman North West Armed Forced Hospital (KSAFH), Tabuk, Saudi Arabia. Objective: To compare outcomes of primary LSG regarding pre and post operative sleep apnea, diabetes mellitus (DM), arterial hypertension (HTN), bronchial asthma, female urinary incontinence, infertility, and gastroesophageal reflux (GERD). We will assess our complications according to the Clavein-Dindo classification. We reviewed the medical records of patients who underwent LSG in King Salman Armed Forces Hospital from 1/1/2015 till 31/6/2017. Methods: This retrospective comparative study is performed in the Department of Surgery, KSAFH. All patients are instructed for follow-up at 1 week and 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, 24 months postoperatively. Laboratory tests are requested every 6 months post op. Improvement of Comorbidities assessed post-operatively. Surgical Complications reported according to the Clavein-Dindo classification. Our results were compared with international studies. Inclusion criteria (more than 14 years, morbid obese with BMI > 40 and obese class 11 with comorbidities). Exclusion criteria (less than 14 years, BMI < 35 and BMI < 40 with no medical illness, revisional cases). Results: A total of 127 patients underwent LSG at King Salman Armed Forces Hospital from 1/1/2015 till 31/5/2017. Of these, 40 were male (31.5%) and 87 were female (68.5%). The mean age was 35 years.
