National Registry of Obesity Treatment by Endosleeve

Obesity and overweight have emerged as public health problems of a pandemic nature, significantly reducing the life expectancy of those affected. Obesity has a considerable medico-economic impact, linked to the treatments it requires and its comorbidities. Currently, the prevention of obesity in our Western societies is not effective enough, as the prevalence and incidence of obesity and overweight continue to rise worldwide. In France, the therapeutic management of this condition is governed by the HAS and is summarized as a surgical approach for type 2 obesity with comorbidity or type 3 obesity, with three authorized methods that have shown sufficient evidence: gastric banding, sleeve gastrectomy (or longitudinal sleeve gastrectomy), and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. With the advent of organ-preserving interventional endoscopy, the systematic use of these surgical methods, although effective for total weight loss and excess weight loss, raises questions. Indeed, these new therapeutic endoscopic approaches, which are less invasive, less costly, and respectful of anatomy, currently show convincing cohort results in the short term (12 to 24 months) and require confirmation of their effectiveness and safety in the long term (5 years) so that they can become first-line therapeutic methods in the near future. At the request of the HAS in its self-referral of 2020 and then in 2022, this prospective registry aims to confirm the effectiveness and safety of the endosleeve (or endoscopic sleeve) in the long-term therapeutic management of obesity within the framework of everyday practice in national reference centers for obesity treatment.
