Efficacy and safety of one anastomosis gastric bypass versus Roux-en-Y gastric bypass at 5 years (YOMEGA): a prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, randomised extension study

The multicentre randomised trial YOMEGA (NCT02139813) comparing the one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) with the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) confirmed the non-inferiority of OAGB on weight loss outcomes at 24 months. We aimed to report weight loss, metabolic, and safety outcomes at 5 years. YOMEGA is a prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, randomised trial conducted at nine centres in France. Inclusion criteria were BMI of 40 kg/m2 or more, or 35 kg/m2 or more with comorbidities. Key exclusion criteria were severe gastro-oesophageal reflux disease or Barrett's oesophagus and previous bariatric surgery. Patients were randomly assigned (1 :1) to OAGB (one gastrojejunal anastomosis with a 200 cm biliopancreatic limb) or RYGB (with a 150 cm alimentary limb and a 50 cm biliary limb), stratified by centre, with blocks of variable size. The primary endpoint of this extension study was percentage excess BMI loss and was analysed in the per-protocol population, including patients with data who were operated on with the technique randomly assigned to them and excluding patients with major deviations from the protocol during the follow-up (change of surgical technique, death, or withdrawal of consent). Non-inferiority was concluded for the primary endpoint if the upper bound of the CI was less than the non-inferiority limit (7 percentage points). YOMEGA is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02139813, and the 5-year follow-up of YOMEGA is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05549271. Between May 13, 2014, and March 2, 2016, 253 patients were randomly assigned to OAGB (n=129) or RYGB (n=124), and from these patients 114 in the OAGB group and 118 in the RYGB group were included in the per-protocol analysis. In the per-protocol population, at baseline, mean age was 43·0 years (SD 10·8), mean BMI was 44·0 kg/m2 (5·6), 54 (23%) patients were male and 178 (77%) were female; 55 (27%) of 207 patients had type 2 diabetes. After 5 years, mean percentage excess BMI loss was -75·6% (SD 28·1) in the OAGB group versus -71·4% (SD 29·8) in the RYGB group, confirming non-inferiority (mean difference -4·1% [90% CI -12·0 to 3·7], p=0·0099). Remission of type 2 diabetes was similar in both groups. Nutritional status did not differ; the most common adverse event was clinical gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, occurring in 27 (41%) of 66 patients in the OAGB group versus 14 (18%) of 76 patients in the RYGB group (p=0·0030). Among serious adverse events, ten (8%) of 127 patients converted from OAGB to RYGB. 171 (68%) of 253 patients were followed up. OAGB was not inferior to RYGB regarding percentage excess BMI loss at 5 years with similar metabolic outcomes. The high rate of clinical gastro-oesophageal reflux disease after OAGB raises questions about its long-term consequences, which need to be further investigated. Medtronic.

LSG vs OAGB: 7-Year Follow-up Data of a Randomised Control Trial and Comparative Outcome Based on BAROS Score.

This study aims to evaluate and compare long-term results of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) based on bariatric analysis reporting and outcome system (BAROS) score. Patients operated for morbid obesity between 2013 and 2015 were randomised to LSG and OAGB groups. Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, 201 patients (100 LSG and 101 OAGB) were analysed for changes in total body weight (TBW), body mass index (BMI), percent excess weight loss (%EWL), percent total weight loss (%TWL), QoL (quality of life) scores, comorbidity resolution and outcome based on BAROS at 7years. Sixty-six LSG and 64 OAGB patients were followed up at 7years. Mean pre-operative TBW and BMI were 119 ± 28.2 and 44.87 ± 7.71 for LSG group and 113.25 ± 23.74 and 44.71 ± 8.75 for OAGB group respectively. At 7years after surgery, there was significant drop in mean TBW and BMI in both groups. Mean %EWL for LSG and OAGB patients was 50.78 ± 28.48 and 59.99 ± 23.32 and mean %TWL for LSG and OAGB patients was 23.22 ± 12.66 and 27.71 ± 12.27 respectively. Mean QoL scores at 7years were significantly higher than the pre-operative scores and most of the patients in both groups had remission or improvement in their comorbidities. 68.76% OAGB patients had very good or excellent outcome on BAROS score while only 36.37% LSG patients had similar outcome. LSG and OAGB are successful bariatric procedures over the long term. OAGB outperforms LSG and has significantly higher %EWL and %TWL over the long term.

Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy vs one-anastomosis gastric bypass 5-year follow-up: a single-blinded randomized controlled trial

BackgroundLaparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is the most performed bariatric procedure worldwide, whereas one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is the third most performed procedure. Both procedures have reported good weight loss (WL) and low complications. However, should both have differences in the durability of WL and malnutrition? MethodsA single-blinded, randomized controlled trial of 300 patients was conducted to compare the outcomes of LSG and OAGB over a 5-year follow-up. The primary endpoint was WL in percentages of total WL (%TWL) and excess WL (%EWL). The secondary endpoints were complications, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), associated medical problems, bariatric analysis and reporting outcome system (BAROS) assessment, and weight recurrence (WR). ResultsOverall, 201 patients (96 in the LSG group and 105 in the OAGB group) completed 5 years of follow-up. OAGB had significantly higher %TWL and %EWL than those of LSG throughout the follow-up. LSG had significantly higher WR and GERD. Both procedures had significant improvement in associated medical problems and BAROS scores compared with baseline, with no significant difference. WR was associated with higher relapse of associated medical conditions after initial remission and with lower BAROS scores regarding WL scores. ConclusionOAGB had significantly higher WL, less WR, and less GERD. However, it had a higher incidence of bile reflux. Both procedures had comparable complication rates, excellent remissions in associated medical problems, and improved quality of life. WR was associated with significantly more relapse of associated medical problems and significantly lower BAROS scores.

Variation in HbA1c in Patients with Obesity and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus 12months after Laparoscopic One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass and Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Retrospective Matched Cohort Study.

Glycemic control is an important goal of bariatric surgery in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity. The laparoscopic one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) has potential metabolic benefits over the laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Aim of this study is to examine whether RYGB or OAGB grants better glycemic control 12months post-surgery. For this retrospective cohort study, patients with T2DM and obesity, who underwent primary OAGB between 2008 and 2017 were reviewed. For each OAGB patient, three primary RYGB patients were matched for age, gender and body mass index (BMI). Glycemic control was expressed by the glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), which was measured pre- and 12months post-operatively. Weight loss was reported in percentage total weight loss (%TWL). A total of 152 patients, of whom 38 had OAGB and 114 RYGB, were included. Mean (standard deviation (SD)) HbA1c was 7.49(1.51)% in the OAGB group and 7.56(1.23)% in the RYGB group at baseline. Twelve months after surgery the mean (SD) HbA1c dropped to 5.73(0.71)% after OAGB and 6.09(0.76)% after RYGB (adjusted p = 0.011). The mean (SD) BMI was reduced from 42.5(6.3) kg/m2 to 29.6(4.7) kg/m2 after OAGB and 42.3(5.8) kg/m2 to 29.9(4.5) kg/m2 after RYGB; reflecting 30.3(6.8) %TWL post-OAGB and 29.0(7.3) %TWL post-RYGB (p = 0.34). This study indicates that OAGB leads to lower HbA1c one year after surgery compared to RYGB, without a difference in weight loss. Prospective (randomized) studies are needed to ascertain the most optimal metabolic treatment for patients with obesity and T2DM.

Analysis of Factors Related to Gastroesophageal Reflux After Gastric Bypass at 10-Year Follow-up: A Retrospective Single-institutional Study.

Long-term gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) after gastric bypass for obesity is underestimated. The present study aimed to evaluate the rate of treated GERD and the factors influencing it in a cohort of patients who underwent gastric bypass. Patients who underwent one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) as a primary bariatric procedure between 2010 and 2011 at a French private referral center were included in the study. The primary endpoint was the 10-year prevalence of GERD. In total, 422 patients underwent RYGB and 334 underwent OAGB with a biliopancreatic limb of 150 cm. The mean age was 38.9±11.3 years, and 81.6% of patients were female; the mean preoperative body mass index was 42.8±5 kg/m2 Preoperative GERD was diagnosed in 40.8% of patients in the total cohort, 31.7% in the RYGB group versus 49.1% in the OAGB group (p<0.0001). At 10-year follow-up, the rate of GERD was 21.1%, with no difference between the two groups. Remission of preoperative GERD and de novo GERD were comparable between the two types of bypass. Surgery for GERD resistant to medical treatment was more frequent in the OAGB group. At multivariate analysis, factors significantly correlated with long-term GERD were: Preoperative GERD, total weight loss at 120 months <25%, glycemic imbalances and anastomotic ulcers. Identification and correction of modifiable factors may help reduce the incidence of long-term GERD.

IBC-Oxford University2023_BJSOral_25Early outcomes of Long Biliopancreatic Limb Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Versus One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass

Abstract Background Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the gold standard in bariatric surgery. The one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) procedure, first introduced by Dr. Rutledge, has demonstrated a 25% greater weight loss efficiency than the traditional Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) procedure due to the substantially longer biliopancreatic limb (BPL). Aim of the study The current work aimed to compare the outcomes of OAGB and long BPL RYGB regarding weight loss and comorbidity resolution. Patients and methods This randomized controlled trial was done at our institution between September 2019 and January 2021. Patients who were candidates for bariatric surgery were randomly and equally allocated to two groups. Group A underwent OAGB, while group B underwent long BPL RYGB. Patients were followed up for 6 months postoperatively. Results This study included 62 patients equally allocated to OAGB or long BPL RYGB, with no dropouts during follow-up. At 6 months, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups regarding postoperative BMI (P = 0.313) and the EBWL (P = 0.238). There was comparable remission of diabetes mellitus (P = 0.708), hypertension (P = 0.999), OSA (P = 0.999), joint pain (P = 0.999), and low back pain (P = 0.999). Seven patients in the OAGB group experienced reflux symptoms (P = 0.011), which were managed by proton pump inhibitors. Conclusion Extending the BPL in RYGB provides weight loss and comorbidity remission comparable to that of OAGB. Some OAGB-related reflux cases remain a concern. However, they were sufficiently controlled with PPIs. Due to OAGB superior technical simplicity, long BPL RYGB should be preserved for cases who at higher risk for bile reflux.

Comparison of the ABCD Score's Accuracy in Predicting Remission of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus One Year After Sleeve Gastrectomy, One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass, and Sleeve Gastrectomy with Transit Bipartition.

ABCD score is one of the scoring systems that predicts the probability of T2DM remission after bariatric surgery. Its success in determining T2DM remission after sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (TB) has not yet been validated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of ABCD score in TB. Of 438 patients with T2DM, 191 underwent sleeve gastrectomy (SG), 136 underwent one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and 111 underwent TB. Retrospective analysis of ABCD scores, 1-year postoperative remission rates, and the predictive accuracy of ABCD scores for these were conducted. In the SG, OAGB, and TB groups, respectively, median ABCD scores were 7, 6, and 4, while complete remission rates were 95.3%, 84.6%, and 76.6% (p < 0.001). The area under curves (AUCs) for SG, OAGB, and TB were 0.829 (95% CI = 0.768 to 0.879, p < 0.0001), 0.801 (95% CI = 0.724 to 0.865, p < 0.0001), and 0.840 (95% CI = 0.758 to 0.902, p < 0.0001), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between AUCs. ABCD score predicts the probability of remission at 1-year follow-up in T2DM patients undergoing TB as accurately as in patients receiving SG or OAGB.

Short-Term Outcomes of Double Omentopexy in One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass Surgery: A Controlled Clinical Trial

ABSTRACT Purpose: This study aims to assess the efficacy of implementing a novel technique of reinforcement of gastric pouch and remnant stomach staple line with Double Omentopexy (DO) in patients undergoing One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) surgery and evaluate its impact in reducing the early postoperative complications. Materials and Methods: The 123 patients were allocated into two groups: 61 in the standard OAGB group and 62 in OAGB with DO group. The primary outcomes are postoperative complications (including early postoperative bleeding, leakage, gastric twist, reflux, etc.) and hospital stay. The secondary outcome is excess body weight loss. Follow-up visits were planned after discharge: at two weeks, two months, and three months postoperatively. Results: Postoperative complications were significantly lower, 3 (4.84%) in OAGB with DO compared with 10 (16.39%) in standard OAGB (P =0.037). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of early postoperative bleeding, deep vein thrombosis, biliary reflux, and gall bladder stone (P &gt;.05). No patient had leakage in either group. The mean operative time was significantly longer (68.66 ± 6.68 min) in OAGB with the DO group when compared with the standard OAGB group (62.16 ± 7.54 min) (P &lt;.001). Conclusion: Applying the DO technique may be a good measure to be added during OAGB to decrease the incidence of potential postoperative complications, especially the rate and severity of bleeding.

Long Biliopancreatic Limb Roux-En-Y Gastric Bypass Versus One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass: a Randomized Controlled Study

BackgroundRoux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the gold standard in bariatric surgery.

Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy Versus One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass in Adolescents With Obesity.

Large studies comparing outcomes between laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) are scarce and involve adult populations. The aim of the study was to compare perioperative, early postoperative, and 1-year postoperative outcomes of adolescents with obesity who underwent LSG or OAGB surgery. The medical records of adolescents with obesity who underwent LSG or OAGB at the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Data on their gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and postoperative quality of life were obtained by a telephone interview. Included were 75 adolescents (median [interquartile range, IQR] age 17.3 [16-18] years) of whom 22 underwent OAGB and 53 underwent LSG. There were no significant preoperative group differences in age, sex, and body mass index score. A low rate of perioperative (5.7% vs 0) and postoperative complication (15.1% vs 10%) with no statistical differences between LSG and OAGB group, respectively, was noted. At 12 months, the percent excessive weight loss + IQR was 42.40% [30.00, 45.00] and 38.00% [33.550, 44.20] in the LSG and OAGB group, respectively ( P = NS). The results of the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory Gastrointestinal Symptoms scale revealed significantly less food limitation and heartburn after OAGB compared to LSG (food limitation 71.63 vs 53.85 and heartburn 83.654 vs 61.6, P = 0.03 and P = 0.029, respectively). Both surgeries are effective and safe for weight loss in the adolescent population. OAGB was associated with significantly fewer GI symptoms compared to LSG.

Does one-anastomosis gastric bypass provide better outcomes than sleeve gastrectomy in patients with BMI greater than 50? A systematic review and meta-analysis.

In patients with BMI greater than 50, sleeve gastrectomy (SG) may not be adequate to treat obesity. To determine whether one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) can provide better outcomes compared with SG in patients with BMI greater than 50, a systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted, including a total of nine retrospective studies with a total of 2332 participants. There was a significant difference in the percentage of excess weight loss [weighted mean difference (WMD): 8.52; 95% CI: 5.81-11.22; P<0.001) and percentage of total weight loss (WMD: 6.65; 95% CI: 5.05-8.24; P<0.001). No significant differences were seen in operative time (WMD: 1.91; 95% CI: -11.24 to 15.07; P=0.77) and length of stay in hospital (WMD: -0.41; 95% CI: -1.18 to 0.37; P=0.30) between the two groups. There were no significant differences between OAGB with SG in Clavien-Dindo grades I-III [odds ratio (OR): 1.56; 95% CI: 0.80-3.05], or grade IV complications (OR: 0.72; 95% CI: 0.18-2.94). The meta-analysis on remission of type 2 diabetes indicated a comparable effect between SG and OAGB (OR: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.28-2.16). The OAGB group had a significantly higher rate of remission of hypertension compared with the SG group (OR: 1.63; 95% CI: 1.06-2.50). The findings of this meta-analysis suggest that the OAGB accomplished a higher percentage of total weight loss and percentage of excess weight loss at short-term and mid-term follow-up but, there was no major difference between the OAGB and SG operations in terms of perioperative outcomes, complications, and diabetes remission.

Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Versus One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass as Revisional Surgery After Failed Sleeve Gastrectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

This study aimed to assess the outcomes of revisional procedures, namely Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) following unsuccessful laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. This systematic review and meta-analysis included 817 patients (404 in OAGB group, 413 in RYGB group) from seven retrospective comparative studies. Data on sample size, demographics, perioperative complications, operative time, pre- and post-revisional body mass index, total weight loss, and global weight loss over follow-up were extracted. The mean operative time was 98.2-201 minutes for RYGB versus 78.7-168 minutes for OAGB. Despite classical RYGB gastric bypass taking longer, mini gastric bypass resulted in greater weight loss than RYGB, with a mean difference of -5.84 (95% confidence interval [CI], -6.74 to -4.94; P<0.00001; I2=0%), greater total weight loss, and a higher diabetes remission rate (odds ratio [OR], 0.32; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.71). However, OAGB was associated with a significantly higher incidence of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux than RYGB (52 vs. 31: OR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.24 to 0.67; P=0.0005; I2=0%). OAGB was performed more quickly and boasted greater total weight loss and higher diabetes remission rates compared to RYGB after failed sleeve gastrectomy. However, OAGB also demonstrated a higher incidence of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux disease. Thus, careful patient selection is essential when considering OAGB.

Efficacy and Safety of Sleeve Gastrectomy or One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass Conversion Following Adjustable Gastric Banding

Given revision or conversion surgery is required in up to 60% of patients who had adjustable gastric band (LAGB), we compared safety and efficacy of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) as conversion surgical procedures in patients with suboptimal response or weight recurrence following LAGB. Conversion surgery was performed in 335 patients between 2016 and 2020. Weight loss, early and late-stage complications, and comorbidity outcomes were reviewed and analyzed. One hundred and sixty-three patients underwent cSG (BMI: 38.3 ± 8.3kg/m2), and 172 patients underwent cOAGB (BMI: 45.2 ± 9.3kg/m2). Percent total body weight loss (%TWL) was 28.7 ± 9.9% at 12months, 30.3 ± 12.8% at 2years, 31.0 ± 14.5% at 3years, and 31.1 ± 14.7% at 4years following OAGB, which was significantly higher than SG; 18.4 ± 8.7%, 18.8 ± 9.8%, 19.3 ± 11.1%, and 16.9 ± 10.9%, respectively (p < 0.0001). Remission of comorbidities, regardless of conversion procedure type, was 20.8% for hypertension (HT), 52% for dyslipidemia (DLD), 60% for type 2 diabetes (DM), 64% for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and 76% for insulin resistance (IR).There were no leaks or deaths following SG or OAGB. A twofold greater frequency of complications was seen in the OAGB group vs SG group (15.1% and 6.7%, respectively). Significant weight loss, acceptable complication rates, and similar remission of comorbidities were seen regardless of the type of conversion procedure. Prospective randomized clinical trials are recommended for further elucidation of long-term outcomes.

Assessment of Exocrine Pancreatic Function Following Bariatric/Metabolic Surgery: a Prospective Cohort Study

BackgroundExocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) can be seen after bariatric/metabolic surgery. Fecal elastase level is a simple test in diagnosing and grading EPI. Quality of life changes in patients with bariatric/metabolic surgery related to gastrointestinal complaints is debated.AimThis study aimed to investigate rates and grades of EPI via fecal elastase levels and association between EPI and quality of life in bariatric surgery patients.MethodsA prospective study was performed for patients with bariatric/metabolic surgery at their second-year follow-up. Fecal elastase levels were used to diagnose and grade EPI as severe or moderate. Patient’s gastrointestinal quality of life index (GIQLI) was calculated. Patients were grouped as sleeve gastrectomy (SG), one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), single-anastomosis sleeve ileal bypass (SASI), and transit bipartition (TB). Rates of severe or moderate EPI were primary outcome. Secondary outcome was an association between fecal elastase and GIQLI.ResultsThere were 17, 29, 21, and 15 patients in OAGB, SG, TB, and SASI groups. There was no significant difference between groups in GIQLI scores and fecal elastase levels (p = 0.152 and p = 0.361). Rates of patients with moderate EPI in the groups OAGB, SG, TB, and SASI were 23.5%, 17.2%, 14.3%, and 20.0%. GIQLI scores were not significantly correlated with age, postoperative morphometric data, and fecal elastase values (p > 0.05).ConclusionRates of patients with moderate EPI ranged from 14.3 to 23.5% at second-year follow-up. There was no patient with severe EPI. GIQLI scores were not significantly correlated with fecal elastase levels and different types of bariatric/metabolic surgery.Graphical

Determinants of Secondary Hyperparathyroidism 1 Year After One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass or Sleeve Gastrectomy.

Bariatric surgery alters the anatomic and physiological structure of the gastrointestinal tract, predisposing patients to the malabsorption of nutrients. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and determinants of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in the patients undergoing either one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG). A total of 517 patients (without SHPT at the baseline) who had undergone OAGB or SG were prospectively assessed 1year after the surgery. Anthropometric parameters, calcium, intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), and 25(OH)D levels were compared according to the surgery type before and 1year after surgery. Multiple logistic regression models were used to evaluate possible SHPT predictors after bariatric surgery. The overall prevalence of SHPT was 12.6% after surgery, significantly different between the OAGB and SG groups (17.1 vs. 9.9%, respectively). The serum levels of albumin-corrected calcium and 25(OH)D were not significantly different between the two groups. The patients undergoing OAGB had significantly higher serum levels of ALP (198.2 vs. 156.6) compared to the subjects undergoing SG. Higher iPTH levels preoperatively, lower 1-year excess weight loss%, and OAGB surgery seemed to be independent predictors for SHPT 1year after surgery. Morbidly-obese patients undergoing OAGB had a higher risk of SHPT than their counterparts undergoing SG, whereas 25(OH)D deficiency and calcium levels did not differ between the two groups. The OAGB procedure, preoperative iPTH levels, and 1-year weight loss were predictors of postoperative SHPT development.

Ten-year outcome of one-anastomosis gastric bypass with a biliopancreatic limb of 150 cm versus Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: a single-institution series of 940 patients.

Long-term outcomes of one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) need to be compared with those of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The present study evaluates the long-term outcomes at 10-year follow-up of OAGB with a biliopancreatic limb of 150 cm versus RYGB. Private practice, France. Data of patients who underwent OAGB or RYGB as primary or secondary procedures between 2010 and 2011 at a referral center were collected prospectively and analyzed retrospectively. A total of 940 patients underwent OAGB (n = 405) or RYGB (n = 535). Operative time was significantly shorter in the OAGB group. Postoperative morbidity occurred in 17.2% of patients after RYGB versus 8.1% after OAGB (P ≤ .0001). Patients in the RYGB group had a significantly higher rate of kinking of the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis, stenosis of the gastrojejunal anastomosis, and dysphagia for early ulcers. At long term, no differences were found in the rate of severe malnutrition. Cumulated morbidity was significantly higher after RYGB, with higher incidence of internal hernia, anastomotic ulcer, blind-loop syndrome, and hypoglycemia. Conversion to RYGB and laparoscopic exploration for chronic pain were more frequent after OAGB. Surgery for weight regain was significantly more frequent after RYGB. Patients in the OAGB group had significantly lower weight, body mass index, and greater percentage excess, and total weight losses at 120 months. No significant differences were detected in co-morbidity outcomes. After 10 years, both RYGB and OAGB are effective procedures. However, OAGB is associated with shorter operative times and better results in short- and long-term morbidity and weight loss outcomes.

Revisional Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Versus Revisional One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass After Failed Sleeve Gastrectomy: a Randomized Controlled Trial

BackgroundHigh rates of revision surgery have been reported for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), with weight regain (WR) as the most frequently reported cause. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the most commonly performed revision procedure, whereas one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is a less popular approach.MethodsA single-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted. One hundred seventy-six patients were enrolled and randomized. After loss to follow-up, 80 patients for RYGB and 80 patients for OAGB were analyzed, with a 2-year follow-up. Patients with grade B or higher gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) were excluded. Early and late postoperative complications were recorded. Body mass index (BMI), percentage of excess BMI loss (%EBMIL), nutritional laboratory test results, and the resolution of associated medical problems were assessed after revision surgery.ResultsAfter 2 years, both groups achieved significantly lower BMI than their post-LSG nadir BMI (p < 0.001). The %EBMIL changes showed significantly faster weight loss in the OAGB group than in the RYGB at the 6-month follow-up (mean difference: 8.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.2 to 16.9%). However, at 1-year and 2-year follow-ups, the differences were statistically insignificant (p > 0.05). Early and late complications were similar between two groups. Both groups showed improvement or resolution of associated medical problems, with no statistically significant differences after 2 years (p = 1.00).ConclusionBoth revisional RYGB and OAGB have comparable significant weight loss effects when performed for WR after LSG. After a 2-year follow-up, both procedures were safe, with no significant differences in the occurrence of complications and nutritional deficits.Graphical abstract

Comparing the Effects of Two Methods of Bariatric Surgery, Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy and Mini Gastric Bypass, on the Weight Loss of Children and Adolescent Younger Than 19 Years Old: A Three-Year Follow-up Study

Background: There is little data about the surgical outcomes of different procedures in children. Objectives: We aimed to compare the difference in three-year surgical outcomes between laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and one-anastomosis gastric bypass one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) in children undergoing these procedures. Methods: A total of 96 children aged ≤ 19 years were listed for bariatric surgery to be included in this prospective study. Demographic characteristics, such as age and gender, and anthropometric indices, including height, weight, body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference, as well as postoperative complications, were recorded. The participants underwent LSG and OAGB by the same surgical team. The variables were compared between the groups at baseline and 1, 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months after surgery. Results: At follow-up, the OAGB group had a higher waist circumference after 1 and 3 month(s) (P = 0.011 and 0.005, respectively) and higher hip circumference 3 months after surgery (P = 0.035). Time significantly affected the trend of changes in weight, body mass index, waist circumference, and hip circumference (P &lt; 0.001). There were no cases of postoperative complications. Conclusions: Our experience showed that LSG had better outcomes after three months, while LSG and OAGB had favorable outcomes on the weight and body mass index (BMI) of children with morbid obesity until three years after surgery.

Nutritional Status after Roux-En-Y (Rygb) and One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (Oagb) at 6-Month Follow-Up: A Comparative Study.

Introduction: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) are two effective bariatric surgical procedures with positive outcomes in terms of weight loss, comorbidities remission, and adverse events profiles. OAGB seems to carry a higher risk of malnutrition, but existing data are controversial. The aim of this study is to objectively evaluate and compare malnutrition in patients undergoing RYGB and OAGB. Methods: Retrospective monocentric study of obese patients undergoing RYGB or OAGB between the 15 September 2020 and the 31 May 2021. Nutritional status was assessed using the Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score and compared between groups. The primary outcome was the mean CONUT score at 6 months. The secondary outcomes included the incidence of malnutrition, comorbidities, including hypertension, insulin resistance and type II diabetes mellitus, and weight loss. Results: 78 patients were included: 30 underwent RYGB and 48 underwent OAGB. At 6-Month Follow-Up there was no difference between groups in the mean CONUT score nor in incidence of malnutrition. In both groups, the nutritional status significantly worsened 6 months after surgery (preoperative and postoperative score of 0.48 ± 0.9 and 1.38 ± 1.5; p = 0.0066 for RYGB and of 0.86 ± 1.5 and 1.45 ± 1.3; p = 0.0422 for OAGB). Type II Diabetes mellitus (DMII) and hypertension remission were significant in the OAGB group with a 100% relative remission in the DMII-OAGB group (p = 0.0265), and a 67% relative remission in the hypertension-OAGB group (p = 0.0031). Conclusions: No difference in nutritional status has been detected between patients undergoing RYGB or OAGB at the 6-Month Follow-Up. Both procedures may have significant mal-absorptive effects leading to decline in nutritional status. OAGB may be more efficacious in inducing DMII and hypertension remission. Larger prospective studies dedicated specifically to nutritional status after gastric bypass are needed to confirm the impact of different bypass procedures on nutritional status.

Nutritional Outcomes One Year after One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass Compared to Sleeve Gastrectomy.

One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG) are the most common bariatric procedures performed worldwide. SG is a restrictive procedure whereas OAGB involves malabsorption as well, supposing a risk of deficiency development post OAGB. The aim of the study was to compare nutritional deficiencies and metabolic markers one year after the procedures, while adhering to the current protocols. Retrospective analysis was performed for data on 60 adults undergoing primary OAGB, compared to 60 undergoing primary SG. Mean pre-surgery BMI for SG was 42.7 kg/m2 and 43.3 kg/m2 for OAGB. A multidisciplinary team followed up with the patients at least 3 times during the first year. Mean weight loss was 39.0 kg for SG and 44.1 kg for OAGB. The OAGB group presented a significantly sharper decline in T.Chol and a trend for sharper LDL decrease; a higher increase in folate and a trend for a greater decrease in albumin and hemoglobin were observed in OAGB. For vitamin B12, D, iron and ferritin, no difference was observed between the treatment groups, although there were some in-group differences. Nutritional recommendations and adopted supplement plans minimize the risk of deficiencies and result in improvement in metabolic biomarkers one year after OAGB, which was comparable to SG.
