RESUMO

Obesity is a worldwide epidemic, and bariatric surgery is considered the primary treatment for long-term weight loss and managing obesity-related health issues. Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are the most performed procedures. Nutritional deficiencies are a significant concern following bariatric surgery and can have serious consequences. This study aims to compare the incidence of nutritional deficiencies in patients undergoing RYGB and SG. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the nutritional status of 505 consecutive patients who underwent either RYGB or SG between January and December 2019. Data were collected regarding vitamin B12, folic acid, vitamin D, calcium, PTH, magnesium, hemoglobin, iron, ferritin, and transferrin at preoperative, 6-month, and 12-month intervals post-surgery. The RYGB group showed significantly higher excess weight loss. Vitamin B12, hemoglobin, and ferritin levels were consistently higher in the SG group throughout the study. Vitamin D deficiency was prevalent, with no significant difference between the groups. Vitamin B12 deficiency was significantly more common in the RYGB group (6 months: 17.46% vs. 4.69%, p < 0.001; 12 months: 16.74% vs. 0.93%, p < 0.001). Despite differences in their mechanisms, bariatric surgeries were associated with nutritional deficiencies. It is crucial to efficiently assess, prevent, and manage these deficiencies tailored to each surgical procedure.

RESUMO

Background: Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) is an emerging technique for delivering chemotherapy directly to the peritoneum via a pressurized aerosol. Its growing attention stems from its effectiveness in treating peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) originating from various primary tumors, with gastric cancer (GC) being among the most prevalent. This study aimed to systematically investigate PIPAC's therapeutic role in gastric cancer peritoneal metastasis (GCPM). Methods: The systematic review and meta-analysis followed the PRISMA 2020 guidelines, searching Pubmed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS databases. The meta-analysis of relative risks and mean differences compared patients undergoing one or two PIPAC sessions with those completing three or more, assessing various outcomes. Results: Eighteen studies underwent qualitative analysis, and four underwent quantitative analysis. Patients with three or more PIPAC procedures had shorter hospital stays (MD = -1.2; 95%CI (-1.9; -0.5); p < 0.001), higher rates of histopathological response (RR = 1.77, 95%CI 1.08; 2.90; p = 0.023), and significantly improved overall survival (MD = 6.0; 95%CI 4.2; 7.8; p < 0.001). Other outcomes showed no significant differences. Conclusions: PIPAC demonstrated efficacy in carefully selected patients, enhancing histopathologic response rates and overall survival without prolonging hospital stays. This study underscores the necessity for randomized controlled trials and precise selection criteria to refine PIPAC's implementation in clinical practice.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Although bariatric surgery is an effective intervention for obesity, it comes with risks such as early postoperative bleeding (EPB). Identifying preoperative risk factors for this complication can help patients' risk stratification and optimization. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to find predictors for early postoperative bleeding after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). METHODS: We conducted a systematic review, searching PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science until November 2023. We performed a random-effects meta-analysis to explore preoperative risk factors associated with early postoperative bleeding after RYGB. Sources of heterogeneity were explored by leave-one-out analyses. RESULTS: 23 studies were included, comprising 232,488 patients. Male gender (meta-analytical RR = 1.42, 95%CI = 1.21-1.66, I2 = 18%, Q Cochran test p-value = 0.29) and revisional surgery (meta-analytical RR = 1.35, 95%CI = 1.12-1.62, I2 = 22%, Q Cochran test p = 0.21) were associated with higher risk of EPB. On average, patients with EPB were older than the remainder (MD for the mean age = 2.82 years, 95%CI = 0.97-4.67, I2 = 0.00%, Q Cochran test p = 0.46). Except for hypertension (meta-analytical RR = 1.33, 95%CI = 1.02-1.73, I2 = 66%, Q Cochran test p < 0.0001), comorbidities were not associated with a higher risk of EPB. CONCLUSION: Preoperative risk factors, including age, gender, hypertension, and revisional bariatric surgery, are associated with early postoperative bleeding after RYGB. Further primary studies, with higher methodological quality, are required to detail more risk factors.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The frequency of revisional bariatric surgery is increasing, but its effectiveness and safety are not yet fully established. The aim of our study was to compare short-term outcomes of primary (pRYGB and pSG) and revisional bariatric surgeries (rRYGB and rSG). METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study assessing all patients submitted to primary and revisional (after a failed AGB) RYGB and SG in 2019. Each patient was followed-up at 6 months and 12 months after surgery. We compared pRYGB vs. rRYGB, pSG vs. rSG and rRYGB vs. rSG on weight loss, surgical complications, and resolution of comorbidities. RESULTS: We assessed 494 patients, of which 18.8% had undergone a revisional procedure. Higher weight loss at 6 and 12 months was observed in patients undergoing primary vs. revisional procedures. Patients submitted to rRYGB lost more weight than those with rSG (%EWL 12 months = 82.6% vs. 69.0%, p < 0.001). Regarding the resolution of obesity-related comorbidities, diabetes resolution was more frequent in pRYGB than rRYGB (54.2% vs. 25.0%; p = 0.038). Also, 41.7% of the patients who underwent rRYGB had dyslipidemia resolution vs. 0% from the rSG group (p = 0.035). Dyslipidemia resolution was also more common in pSG vs. rSG (68.6% vs. 0.0%; p = 0.001). No significant differences in surgical complications were found. CONCLUSION: Revisional bariatric surgery is effective and safe treating obesity and related comorbidities after AGB. Primary procedures appear to be associated with better weight loss outcomes. Further prospective studies are needed to better understand the role of revisional bariatric surgery.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Gastrointestinal leak is one of the most feared complications after cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) and harbors significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. We aim to identify risk-factors for anastomotic leak (AL) and gastrointestinal perforation (GP) to optimize postoperative outcomes of this population. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of 1043 consecutive patients submitted to CRS in a single institution. Potential risk factors for AL and GP, both related to patient overall condition, disease status and surgical technique were reviewed. RESULTS: Anastomotic leaks were identified in 5.2% of patients, and GPs in 7.0%. The independent risk-factors for AL were age at surgery (OR1.40; CI95% 1.10-1.79); peritoneal cancer index (PCI) (OR1.04, CI95% 1.01-1.07); Cisplatin dose >240 mg during HIPEC (OR3.53; CI95% 1.47-8.56) and the presence of colorectal (CR) or colo-colic (CC) anastomosis (OR5.09; CI95% 2.71-9.53, and 4.58; CI95% 1.22-17.24 respectively). Male gender and intraoperative red blood cell transfusions were the only independent risk factors for GP identified (OR1.70; CI95% 1.04-2.78 and 1.06; CI95% 1.01-1.12, respectively). Regarding 30-day and 90-day postoperative mortality, independent risk-factors were mainly related to patient's overall condition. CONCLUSION: Gastrointestinal leaks are a frequent source of postoperative morbidity, mainly at the expense of GP. A careful and systematic intraoperative revision of all potential gastrointestinal injuries is equally critical to perfecting anastomotic fashioning techniques to decrease gastrointestinal complication rates. We identified multiple risk-factors for AL and GP related to disease status and patient condition. Our study suggests that patient-related conditions are of paramount relevance, highlighting the importance of patient selection and preoperative patient optimization.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for sustained weight reduction and obesity-related comorbidities. The development of gallstones as a result of rapid weight loss is a well-known consequence of bariatric procedures. It remains unclear, if there is an increased risk of these gallstones becoming symptomatic. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 505 consecutive patients submitted to either Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass or Sleeve Gastrectomy between January and December 2019 was performed. The aim of our study was to determine the incidence of symptomatic cholelithiasis in asymptomatic patients with their gallbladder in situ after bariatric surgery and to identify potential risk factors for its development. RESULTS: Of the 505 patients included, 79 (15.6%) underwent either previous cholecystectomy. (n = 67, 84.8%) or concomitant cholecystectomy during bariatric surgery (n = 12, 15.2%). Among the remaining 426 (84.4%) patients, only 8 (1.9%) became symptomatic during the 12-month follow-up period. When compared with patients who remained asymptomatic, they had a higher median preoperative BMI (47.0 vs. 42.8, p = 0.046) and prevalence of cholelithiasis on preoperative ultrasound (62.5% vs. 10.7%, p = 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed preoperative BMI and cholelithiasis on preoperative ultrasound as independent risk factors for symptomatic biliary disease (OR 1.187, 95%CI 1.025-1.376, p = 0.022 and OR 10.720, 95%CI 1.613-71.246, p = 0.014, respectively). CONCLUSION: Considering a low incidence of symptomatic gallstones after bariatric surgery, concomitant cholecystectomy should only be performed in symptomatic patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Preoperative factors, such as a higher BMI and positive ultrasound for cholelithiasis, may be related to the development of symptomatic gallstones.

RESUMO

Objectives: Up to one quarter of the patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) develop peritoneal carcinomatosis (PM). The aims of this retrospective study were to characterize the histological response of the PM of CRC to preoperative chemotherapy and evaluate the potential prognostic value, in terms of survival. Methods: This retrospective unicentric study evaluated a group of 30 patients treated between 2010 and 2020 at the São João University Hospital Center with preoperative chemotherapy, followed by cytoreduction surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. The evaluation of the histological response was done using two scores: the tumor regression grading (TRG) and the peritoneal regression grading score (PRGS). Results: Mean post-procedure survival is higher in the PRGS 1-2 group (74.19 months) vs. the PRGS 3-4 group (25.27 months) (p=0.045), as well as in the TRG 1-2 group (74.58 months) vs. TRG 4-5 (25.27 months) (p=0.032). As for progression-free survival (PFS), the PRGS 1-2 group had a mean value of 58.03 months vs. PRGS 3-4 which had 11.67 months (p=0.002). Similar was observed with the TRG 1-2 group, which had a mean PFS of 61.68 months vs. TRG 4-5 with 11.67 months (p=0.003). Conclusions: A better histological response to preoperative chemotherapy, represented as a lower PRGS and TRG value, is associated with longer post-procedure survival and progression-free survival in this group of patients. That is, these two scores have prognostic value.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The frequency and management of gallstone disease (GD) in bariatric patients, including the role of routine prophylactic concomitant cholecystectomy (CCY), are still a matter of debate. This study aims to assess the risk of de novo GD in patients undergoing bariatric surgery (BS) and their predictive factors, as well as mortality and morbidity in prophylactic CCY compared to BS alone. METHODS: We performed a systematic review, searching PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science until April 2021. We performed a Bayesian meta-analysis to estimate the risk of GD development after BS and the morbidity and mortality associated with BS alone versus BS + prophylactic CCY. Sources of heterogeneity were explored by meta-regression analysis. RESULTS: The risk of de novo post bariatric GD was 20.7% (95% credible interval [95% CrI] = 13.0-29.7%; I2 = 75.4%), and that of symptomatic GD was 8.2% ([95% CrI] = 5.9-11.1%; I2 = 66.9%). Pre-operative average BMI (OR = 1.04; 95% CrI = 0.92-1.17) and female patients' proportion (OR = 1.00; 95% CrI = 0.98-1.04) were not associated with increased risk of symptomatic GD. BS + prophylactic CCY was associated with a 97% probability of a higher number of postoperative major complications compared to BS alone (OR = 1.74, 95% CrI = 0.97-3.55; I2 = 56.5%). Mortality was not substantially different between the two approaches (OR = 0.79; 95% CrI = 0.03-3.02; I2 = 20.7%). CONCLUSION: The risk of de novo symptomatic GD after BS is not substantially high. Although mortality is similar between groups, odds of major postoperative complications were higher in patients submitted to BS + prophylactic CCY. It is still arguable if prophylactic CCY is a fitting approach for patients with a preoperative lithiasic gallbladder.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION/AIM: Serum albumin concentration (COA) and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) could reflect immunological and nutritional status. We aim to evaluate the impact of COA-NLR score on the prognosis of gastric cancer (GC). MATERIAL AND METHODS: We perform a retrospective analysis on a database of 637 GC cases, between January 2010 and December 2017. In 396 patients, the inclusion criteria for this study were met (non-resectional or palliative surgery were excluded). Analytic data was only available in 203 patients. COA-NLR score was defined as follows: COA under 35 g/L and NLR value of 2.585 or higher, score 2; one of these conditions, score 1; and neither, score 0. RESULTS: In our population (n = 203), 87 patients were classified as score 0, 82 as score 1 and 34 as score 2. COA-NLR score was significantly associated with DFS (HR 1.674; CI 95% 1.115-2.513; p = 0.013) and with OS (HR 2.072; CI 95% 1.531-2.805; p < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier curve analysis (log rank test) revealed that a higher score of COA-NLR predicted a worse OS (p < 0.001) and DFS (p = 0.03). COA-NLR was an independent prognostic factor for OS when adjusted to pStage and age (adjusted HR 1.566; CI 95% 1.145-2.143; p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative COA-NLR score was significantly associated with worse OS and DFS and, in this way, with worse prognosis on GC patients submitted to curative-intent resectional surgery.

RESUMO

Pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare malignant tumour predominantly affecting young women. The occurrence of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) in this setting is an even rarer condition, usually related to perioperative tumour rupture. We present a case of a 43-year-old woman who previously underwent distal splenopancreatectomy after the diagnosis of a pancreatic SPN. Thirteen years later, the patient underwent a radical hysterectomy due to a uterine myoma. Intraoperatively, a peritoneal mass was additionally found and resected. Histological examination revealed an implant with morphology compatible with pancreatic SPN. The patient was then referred to our institution. Staging MRI and CT revealed multiple nodular lesions adjacent to the left colon, suggestive of peritoneal implants. The patient was then submitted to cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) with oxaliplatin and irinotecan. Histological examination confirmed peritoneal involvement by a pancreatic SPN. The postoperative course was unremarkable. Two years after surgery, the patient remains asymptomatic with no evidence of relapse. Despite SPN being cancer with a relatively indolent evolution, one needs to be aware of a possible recurrence several years after the primary resection, mainly in patients with evidence of intraoperative tumour rupture.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Despite promising results, the effectiveness of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with gastric cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis (GCPC) has not been systematically evaluated. The aim of this systematic review is to compare the survival, complications and risk of recurrence between CRS + HIPEC versus CRS alone in GCPC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A systematic review was performed in MEDLINE and Web of Science according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Primary studies with patients with GCPC older than 18 years were included. Methodological Index for Non-randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria were used to assess the quality of the studies. We performed random-effects meta-analysis of risk ratios (RR). We assessed heterogeneity using the I2 statistic. RESULTS: Five studies were included in the qualitative and four in the quantitative analysis. The overall survival (OS) rate after 1 year was 3.65 times higher for CRS + HIPEC than CRS alone [RR = 3.65, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 1.01-13.26, I2 = 73%]. The OS rate after 5 years was more than three times higher for CRS + HIPEC than for CRS alone (RR = 3.25, 95% CI = 1.28-8.26, I2 = 8%). No significant differences between CRS + HIPEC and CRS alone related to complications were found (RR = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.83-1.33, I2 = 0%). The risk of peritoneal recurrence was significantly lower for CRS + HIPEC than for CRS alone (RR = 0.23, 95% CI = 0.11-0.48, I2 = 40%). The results may be associated with some information or indication bias. CONCLUSIONS: Results should be analysed cautiously given the detected heterogeneity and limitations of included studies. However, treatment with CRS + HIPEC seems to increase the survival of patients with GCPC, more than treatment with CRS alone, decrease the risk of peritoneal recurrence and not be associated with more complications.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Regarding the assessment of patients' immune and nutritional status, prognostic nutritional index (PNI) has been reported as a predictive marker for surgical outcomes in various types of cancer. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of PNI in prognosis of gastric cancer patients submitted to curative-intent resectional surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis with 637 gastric cancer cases submitted to curative-intent surgery, between 2010 and 2017, in an upper GI surgery unit. We analyzed 396 patients that met the inclusion criteria for this study. The median follow-up was 37 (0-113) months. RESULTS: According to Youden's method, the optimal PNI cutoff for OS was 41.625 (sensitivity 89.3% and specificity 41.3%). OS was significantly shorter in the lower-PNI group of patients when compared to the higher-PNI group (40.26 vs 77.49 months; p < 0.001). Higher PNI had a positive impact on OS in univariable analysis. When adjusted to pStage, higher PNI was still significantly associated with better OS (HR 0.405; CI 95% 0.253-0.649; p < 0.001). Regarding DFS, higher PNI was associated with better DFS (HR 0.421; CI 95% 0.218-0.815; p = 0.010). Higher-PNI group had a protective effect regarding postoperative morbidity and mortality. CONCLUSIONS: In this cohort, PNI was disclosed to significantly impact GC patients' OS and DFS, including in multivariable analysis when adjusting for classical prognostic features. PNI can be used to predict patients at increased risk of postoperative morbidity and mortality. This index may be of use in identifying candidate patients who would benefit from perioperative nutritional support to improve surgical outcomes.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Early postoperative bleeding is a common complication after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and is associated with significant morbidity. We aimed to identify predictors of early postoperative bleeding after LRYGB and characterize hemorrhagic events and 30-day postoperative outcomes. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study regarding all patients submitted to LRYGB in 2019 at a high-volume obesity center. Early postoperative bleeding was defined as any clinically significant evidence of hemorrhage in the early postoperative period. Demographic, preoperative, and intraoperative factors were evaluated for associations with postoperative bleeding. Postoperative outcomes were compared between patients with and without hemorrhage. RESULTS: Of 340 patients submitted to LRYGB, 14 (4.1%) had early postoperative bleeding. Patients with bleeding had an increased preoperative left hepatic lobe diameter (8.4 vs. 7.3 cm, p = 0.048). Prior cholecystectomy (28.6 vs. 14.5%) and previous bariatric surgery (35.7 vs. 23.9%) tended to be more prevalent among these patients. Bleeding occurred at a median time of 31.2 [IQR 19.7-38.5] h. Thirteen patients presented with intraluminal bleeding and one with extraluminal bleeding. Melena was the most common symptom. All hemorrhages were clinically diagnosed, and 92.9% were managed conservatively. Postoperative bleeding was associated with longer hospital stay (3.5 vs. 2.0 days), higher reintervention (7.1 vs. 0%), and readmission (14.3 vs. 0%), all p < 0.05. CONCLUSIONS: Bleeding was the most frequent early complication after LRYGB. Patients with hepatomegaly and prior surgeries may have technically challenging LRYGB and should be carefully assessed. Perioperative strategies should be encouraged in high-risk patients to prevent bleeding.

RESUMO

The genus Helicobacter is composed of bacteria that colonize both the human and animal gastrointestinal tract. Helicobacter pylori infects half of the world's population, causing various disorders, such as gastritis, duodenitis and gastric cancer. Additionally, non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter species (NHPH) are commonly found in the stomach of pigs, dogs and cats. Most of these species have zoonotic potential and prevalence rates of 0.2-6.0%, and have been described in human patients suffering from gastric disorders undergoing a gastric biopsy. The aim of this study was to determine the occurrence of Helicobacter spp. in the stomach of patients with gastric cancer (n = 17) and obese (n = 63) patients. Furthermore, the outcome of the Helicobacter eradication treatment and the current infection status was evaluated. Overall, based on the genus-specific PCR followed by sequencing, DNA from Helicobacter spp. was detected in 46.3% of the patients, including single infections with H. pylori in 43.8% of the patients and mixed infections with H. pylori and canine- or feline-associated H. felis in 2.5%. About 32.5% of the patients had been subjected to previous Helicobacter eradication therapy and the triple standard therapy was the most frequent scheme (42.3%). In 48.0% of the patients who received eradication treatment, bacteria were still detected, including one mixed infection. In 23.1% of the patients who reported that a subsequent test had been performed to confirm the elimination of the bacteria, Helicobacter were still detected. In conclusion, although in a smaller percentage, NHPH may also be present in the human stomach. Thus, specific NHPH screening should be included in the diagnostic routine. The continued presence of H. pylori in the stomach of patients recently subjected to eradication schemes raises questions about the efficacy of the current Helicobacter treatments.

RESUMO

Bariatric surgery, although an effective method, still has complications, like nutritional deficiencies. Our aim was to summarize the evidence on the frequency of complex B vitamin deficiencies in studies comparing Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). We included 25 studies for qualitative synthesis and 21 studies for quantitative synthesis. Relevant data was extracted, including proportion of patients with deficiency and mean serum vitamin values in 3 different timeframes. B12 and folate were the most prevalent deficiencies. B12 deficiency was more common after RYGB and folate serum mean levels were higher after RYGB. SG causes less nutrient deficiency and is therefore a better technique from this point of view. More studies are needed on B2, B3, and B6 vitamins to draw better conclusions.

RESUMO

Helicobacter pylori infects half of the world population, being associated with several gastric disorders, such as chronic gastritis and gastric carcinoma. The Helicobacter genus also includes other gastric helicobacters, such as H. heilmannii¸ H. ailurogastricus, H. suis, H. felis, H. bizzozeronii, and H. salomonis. These gastric helicobacters colonize both the human and animal stomach. The prevalence of gastric non-Helicobacter pylori Helicobacter (NHPH) species in humans has been described as low, and the in vitro binding to the human gastric mucosa was never assessed. Herein, human gastric tissue sections were used for the evaluation of the tissue glycophenotype and for the binding of gastric NHPH strains belonging to different species. Histopathological evaluation showed that 37.5% of the patients enrolled in our cohort presented chronic gastritis, while the presence of neutrophil or eosinophilic activity (chronic active gastritis) was observed in 62.5% of the patients. The secretor phenotype was observed in 68.8% of the individuals, based on the expression of Lewis B antigen and binding of the UleX lectin. The in vitro binding assay showed that all the NHPH strains evaluated were able to bind, albeit in low frequency, to the human gastric mucosa. The H. heilmannii, H. bizzozeronii, and H. salomonis strains displayed the highest binding ability both to the gastric superficial epithelium and to the deep glands. Interestingly, we observed binding of NHPH to the gastric mucosa of individuals with severe chronic inflammation and intestinal metaplasia, suggesting that NHPH binding may not be restricted to the healthy gastric mucosa or slight chronic gastritis. Furthermore, the in vitro binding of NHPH strains was observed both in secretor and non-secretor individuals in a similar frequency. In conclusion, this study is the first report of the in vitro binding ability of gastric NHPH species to the human gastric mucosa. The results suggest that other glycans, besides the Lewis antigens, could be involved in the bacterial adhesion mechanism; however, the molecular intervenients remain unknown.

RESUMO

Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) and laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) are safe procedures that may present sub-optimal results in superobesity (SO). A meta-analysis was performed aiming to summarize the available evidence on weight loss (primary outcome) and comorbidities resolution of LRYGB and LSG in patients with SO (BMI ≥ 50 kg/m2). From the 16 included studies, 7 integrated the meta-analysis. LRYGB showed a significantly higher weight loss at 6 to 12-months, but not after 24 months and a higher dyslipidemia resolution at 12 months. When compared with LSG, LRYGB achieved better weight loss after 6 and 12 months and higher dyslipidemia resolution after 1 year. There were no significant differences for resolution of the other co-morbidities studied.
