After Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), few patients develop severe complications, which ultimately may require reversal of RYGB. We aimed to examine the effect of reversal of RYGB on symptoms and well-being. Via contact to medical and surgical departments treating patients with RYGB, we identified 18 patients, who had undergone reversal, 2009-2019. We conducted a Danish, nationwide questionnaire survey concerning symptoms before and after reversal of the RYGB including the patients' own perceptions of their well-being. Fourteen patients responded to the questionnaire (86% female; median age at RYGB, 36.2years [IQR, 30.9-38.6years]). The median time from RYGB to reversal was 5.8years (IQR, 5.1-7.5years). After RYGB, 13 patients (93%) reported abdominal pain, while 12 patients still had abdominal pain after reversal. Six out of 11 patients (45%) reported complete remission of dumping/post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH) after reversal. Malabsorption disappeared in 10 out of 11 patients (90%). Reversal had minor effect on neuropathy. The median weight loss from RYGB was 61kg (IQR, 56-75kg), while the median weight regain after reversal was 30kg (IQR, 13-46kg). Regarding the well-being, 72 of the patients felt better or much better after reversal. In total, 72% of the patients felt better or much better after reversal of RYGB, though some still had RYGB-related symptoms. The reversal relieved dumping/PBH and malabsorption, but not abdominal pain and neuropathy. Finally, half of the weight loss was regained after reversal. Reversal of RYGB may be an option in highly selected cases.
