Background
Few reports have compared laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) to laparoscopic Roux-en-Y procedure (LRNY). This study aims at comparing the 5-year follow-up results of mini gastric bypass (MGB or omega gastric bypass (OGB)) and LSG in terms of weight loss, weight regain, complications, and resolution of co-morbidities.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of the prospectively collected database was done from the start of our bariatric practice from February 2007 to August 2008 (minimum 5-year follow-up). During this period, 118 patients underwent LSG. These patients were matched in age, gender, preoperative weight, and BMI to 104 patients who underwent MGB in the same time period. The results were compared.
Results
Follow-up was achieved in 72 MGB vs 76 LSG patients up to 5 years. The mean BMI for the MGB and LSG group was 44 ± 3.1 and 42 ± 5.2 kg/m2, respectively (P < 0.001). The average percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) for MGB vs LSG was 63 vs 69 % at 1 year and 68 vs 51.2 % at 5 years (P = 0.166), respectively. Post-op gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) was seen in 2.8 % MGB patients and marginal ulcer was diagnosed in 1 MGB patient (1.4 %). GERD was seen in 21 % post-LSG patients.
Conclusions
Both MGB and LSG are safe, short, and simple operations. Weight loss is similar in MGB and LSG in the first years, but lesser %EWL with LSG at 5 years (68 % in MGB vs 51 % in LSG). Post-op GERD is more common after LSG.
