Omentopexy (OP) is proposed as a strategy to reduce associated complications. Objective was to determine the effectiveness of omentopexy in controlling post-surgical symptoms and to measure the need for re-intervention, leakage, bleeding, and mortality in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
