Abstract
Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is widely accepted bariatric procedure due to its simplicity and effectiveness. Despite its advantages, the traditional approach to LSG can be associated with various complications. This study introduces an innovative three-port technique for LSG, aiming to reduce operative complications, shorten hospital stays, and potentially lower the overall costs while maintaining or improving weight loss outcomes. We meticulously detailed our innovative three-port technique of LSG and evaluated its safety and efficacy through a retrospective analysis of 116 consecutive patients. Key metrics such as operation time, complication rates, and weight loss were assessed. authors declared no conflict of interest. The innovative three-port LSG procedure demonstrated a mean operation time of 90.13 ± 5.68 minutes. Patients exhibited significant weight loss post-operation, with mean reductions of 11.57 ± 5.09 kg after one months, 19.75 ± 6.57 kg after three months, 26.85 ± 7.60 kg after sixth months, and 28.86 ± 11.23* Submission Date: 19 September 2023; Acceptance Date: 30 August 2024.

The safety profile was favorable, with no serious complications as classified by the Clavien-Dindo classification at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months follow-up. The three-port technique for LSG is safe and effective method that offers significant advantages over traditional LSG approaches, including potentially lower complication rates and improved patient outcomes. This technique represents a significant innovation in bariatric surgery, warranting further adoption and study. Paragraph Headings: 1. Background 2. Procedure 2.1. Patient positioning 2.2.
