Dr. Velanovich's contributions to understanding Barrett's Esophagus and its treatment.

The purpose of this paper is to showcase a fully stapled approach to creating a gastrojejunostomy during a robot-assisted Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

A fully stapled technique for gastrojejunal anastomosis creation in robotic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

This retrospective cohort study aims to investigate emergency department (ED) visits and readmission after bariatric surgery among patients with a history of anxiety and/or depression. We predict that patients with a reported history of anxiety and/or depression will have more ED visits in the year following surgery than patients without a history of mental illness.

Mental health status as a predictor of emergency department visits and hospital readmissions post bariatric surgery: a retrospective cohort study.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy can lead to dangerous complications as leaks and hemorrhage. In addition, it can lead to gastric twist/torsion, prolonged postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and de novo gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). We aimed to study the efficacy of omentopexy/gastropexy (OP/GP) in the prevention of these postoperative complications.
