Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy or Laparoscopic Proximal Roux-Y-gastric Bypass in the Treatment of Morbid Obesity
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-Y-gastric bypass for Morbid Obesity. Completed, enrolled 217 participants.
Detailed Summary
The laparoscopic sleeve-gastrectomy (SG) compared to laparoscopic proximal Roux-Y-gastric bypass (PGB) is as successful in the treatment of morbid obesity in the majority of patients. In case of insufficient weight loss malabsorption can to be added by performing laparoscopic bilious-pancreatic diversion duodenal switch (BPD). The resection of the gastric fundus (LG) leads to changes in gastrointestinal hormones that are possibly different to bypassing the fundus (PGB).
