About
This study compared differences in weight loss, comorbidity resolution and complications and reoperations between a recently established sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and prior laparoscopic Rox-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).
Full description
This retrospective study with prospectively collected registry data presents results from establishment of SG as standard procedure for morbid obesity. Our first 368 patients operated with a SG were compared to 647 patients previously operated with a (RYGB. Perioperative data and results up to 2 years postoperatively regarding weight control, metabolic control as well as complications/reoperations necessary were registered.
In summary, a RYGB was associated with a longer operation time and higher rates of late complications and reoperations. Diabetes resolution was similar in both groups but patients with a RYGB had greater weight loss and significant improvement in hypertension and dyslipidemias.
