About

Bariatric surgery represents the best therapeutic option to induce sustainable weight loss and to solve serious comorbidities improving the life-expectancy and the quality of life. Actually the choice of the procedure is based on the surgeon's and patients preference . Mini gastric bypass(MGB) is an emerging procedure offering excellent results in terms of weight loss and comorbidities (mainly metabolic) control. On the other hand, recent data indicated that the gut microbiota may mediate some of the beneficial effects of bariatric surgery and changes in the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota have been observed after RY Gastric Bypass (RYGB) in humans as well as in mice. However, there are no prospective investigations on Gut Microbiota changes after MGB, despite the procedure is described as "malabsorptive" and there are no studies comparing gut microbiota shift and malabsorption entity in humans after RYGB vs MGB. Thereafter prospective data on the incidence of bile reflux esophageal lesions after MGB are lacking.

The aim of the present multicentric prospective comparative study is to evaluate malabsorption and gut microbiota shift after laparoscopic RYGB vs MGB at 1 year.

90 participants in 2 patient groups

Mini Gastric Bypass
Active Comparator group
Description:
Mini Gastric Bypass: The gastric pouch will be performed starting below the incisura angularis (transverse resection 4 cm) on the lesser curvature (18).Then the stomach will be transected against a 36 Fr bougie up to the gastro-esophageal junction Then 1/3 of the small bowel will be excluded (approximately 200cms) and 3.5-4 cm gastro-jejunostomy will be performed by linear stapler.
Treatment:
Procedure: Mini Gastric Bypass
Roux en Y Gastric Bypass
Active Comparator group
Description:
Roux en Y Gastric Bypass: The steps of the standard double loop RYGB technique will be followed (17). The gastric pouch will be created 7 cm from the gastro-esophageal junction to obtain a volume of 30-40 ml, and the length of the alimentary limb will be 150 cm and 3.5-4 cm gastro-jejunostomy will be performed by linear stapler. The length of the biliopancreatic limb will be from 65 to 75 cm beyond the ligament of Treitz. The lengths of both limbs should carefully measured with a graduated instrument. The mesenteric defects will be closed.
Treatment:
Procedure: Roux en Y Gastric Bypass
