- Abstract
I read with interest the paper published by Robert et al. [[1]], reporting a randomized clinical trial comparing the outcomes of One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) at 2-year follow-up (YOMEGA trial). The authors describe that patients were recruited from nine high-volume bariatric institutions in France, but they required nearly 2 years to enroll 261 patients. Finally, it is surprising that 3% of patients after RYGB have esophagitis at endoscopy and 8% at esophageal biopsy, 2 years after RYGB, when this technique is considered the gold standard anti-reflux surgery for obese patients.
