Antrum resection sleeve gastrectomy (AR-SG) induces significant body fat reduction than antrum preservation sleeve gastrectomy (AP-SG) in vivo. (A and B) Body fat content after AP-SG and AR-SG are measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. (C) Visceral adipose tissue after 8 weeks post-operation. (D) Hematoxylin and eosin images of visceral adipose tissue are visualized using an optical microscope. Scale bars: 100 μm. (E) Diameter of adipocytes of visceral adipose tissue in sham, AP-SG and AR-SG groups. *Significant AP-SG compared with sham (P < 0.05). ^Significant AR-SG compared with sham (P < 0.05). #Significant AR-SG compared with AP-SG.
