Effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy on morbidly obesity / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy on weight control in morbidly obese patients.Methods 48 patients with morbidly obesity underwent obese surgery (laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy) from Dec.2013 to Dec.2015,and 1-year follow-up study.The general situation of obesity and biochemical indicators were compared and analyzed.Results There were 20 cases in gastric bypass group and 28 cases in sleeve gastrectomy group.The excess weight loss percentage(％EWL)was 73±0.04 in gastric bypass group and 59±0.05 in sleeve gastrectomy group(P=-0.03).There was no statistical difference in weight change between the two groups.Low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) level in gastric bypass group was significantly lower than that in sleeve gastrectomy group at 1 year after surgery (2.42±0.16 vs 3.29±0.20,P=0.006),while folic acid level was significantly higher than that in sleeve gastrectomy group(15.58±1.99 vs 7.59±1.59,P=0.022).Conclusions The one-year follow up shows there is no significant difference in the efficacy of weight control between the two groups.Gastric bypass group may be superior to gastrectomy group in nutrition indexes.However,it is just a short-term postoperative efficacy in morbidly obese patients,long-term weight control effects and obesity related diseases control need to be further explored.
