- Title
Time to Seek a More Personalized Approach to Bariatric Surgery.
- Authors
Moon, Rena C.
- Abstract
B TO THE EDITOR: b Aside from several diversions in the surgical technique, three bariatric procedures are most commonly performed worldwide [1]: sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and biliopancreatic diversion with or without duodenal switch (BPD-DS). In this perspective, patients undergoing SG have a better choice for a revision than patients undergoing RYGB because they do not need a reversal of the procedure. Surgery in patients with super obesity: medium-term follow-up outcomes at a high-volume center.
