Pros and cons of partial reversal with gastro-gastrostomy in patients with refractory hypoalbuminemia following one-anastomosis gastric bypass. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2024; 409:259. [PMID: 39172234 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-024-03443-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 08/10/2024] [Indexed: 08/23/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Hypoalbuminemia following One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass (OAGB) surgery remains a major concern among bariatric surgeons. This study aims to assess the outcome of partial reversal to normal anatomy with gastro-gastrostomy alone in patients with refractory hypoalbuminemia following OAGB surgery. METHODS A retrospective study was performed on patients who underwent partial reversal surgery with gastro-gastrostomy alone due to refractory hypoalbuminemia post-OAGB surgery, using data from the Iran National Obesity Surgery Database, from 2013 to 2022. RESULTS Of 4640 individuals undergoing OAGB, 11 underwent gastro-gastrostomy due to refractory hypoalbuminemia. The median time from OAGB to partial reversal was 16.6 months and the BPL length ranged from 155 to 200 cm. The follow-up period ranged from 1 to 7 years. The mean BMI was 27.3 (7.5) kg/m² before partial reversal. The mean BMI post-reversal was 30.9 (4.2) kg/m² after 1 year and 33.3 (3.8) kg/m² after 2 years. Serum albumin levels significantly increased from 3.0 (0.4) g/dL to 4.0 (0.5) g/dL following gastro-gastrostomy (p-value < 0.001). Serum liver enzymes (SGOT, SGPT, ALP) significantly decreased post-gastro-gastrostomy (p-value < 0.05). Nine individuals (81.8%) achieved resolution of hypoalbuminemia after gastro-gastrostomy with maintenance of ≥ 20% TWL and ≥ 50% EWL. No cases of anastomotic stricture, leak, bleeding, or major complications were reported after gastro-gastrostomy. CONCLUSION Gastro-gastrostomy appears to be a safe and efficacious technique for addressing refractory hypoalbuminemia following OAGB. The procedure preserves the weight loss achieved following OAGB without significant complications. However, further studies are required to validate these findings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE With drastic variations in bariatric practices, consensus is lacking on an optimal approach for revisional bariatric surgeries. MATERIALS AND METHODS The authors reviewed and consolidated bariatric surgery literature to provide specific revision suggestions based on each index surgery, including adjustable gastric band (AGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS), single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve (SADI-S), one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG). RESULTS AGB has the highest weight recurrence rate and can be converted to RYGB, SG, and BPD-DS. After index SG, common surgical options include a resleeve or RYGB. The RYGB roux limb can be distalized and pouch resized in context of reflux, and the entire anatomy can be revised into BPD-DS. Data analyzing revisional surgery after a single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve was limited. In patients with one anastomosis gastric bypass and vertical banded gastroplasty anatomy, most revisions were the conversion to RYGB. CONCLUSIONS As revisional bariatric surgery becomes more common, the best approach depends on the patient's indication for surgery and preexisting anatomy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hypoalbuminemia and anemia are commonly observed indications for one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) reversal and remain significant concerns following the procedure. Sufficient common channel limb length (CCLL) is crucial to minimize nutritional complications. However, limited literature exists regarding the impact of CCLL on OAGB outcomes. This study aimed to assess the effect of CCLL on weight loss and nutritional status in patients who underwent OAGB. METHODS A prospective cohort study was conducted from August 2021 to July 2022, involving 64 patients with a body mass index of 40-50 kg/m2. The standardized length of the biliopancreatic limb (BPLL) for all patients in this study was set at 175 cm. Additionally, the measurement of the common channel limb length (CCLL) was performed consistently by the same surgeon for all included patients. RESULTS The mean age and BMI of the patients were 39.91 ± 10.03 years and 43.13 ± 2.43 kg/m2, respectively, at the time of surgery. There was a statistically significant negative correlation between CCLL and percent total weight loss (%TWL) at the 12-month mark after OAGB (P = 0.02). Hypoalbuminemia was observed in one patient (1.6%), while anemia was present in 17 patients (26.6%) at the one-year follow-up. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in the incidence of anemia and hypoalbuminemia between patients with CCLL < 4 m and those with CCLL ≥ 4 m. CONCLUSION A CCLL of 4 m does not appear to completely prevent nutritional complications following OAGB. However, maintaining a CCLL of at least 4 m may be associated with a reduced risk of postoperative nutritional deficiencies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is an issue after one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and modification of OAGB with adding an anti-reflux system may decrease the incidence of postoperative GERD. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of the anti-reflux mechanism to treat preoperative GERD and prevent de novo GERD. METHODS A prospective randomized clinical trial study was conducted on patients with a body mass index of 40 and more from August 2020 to February 2022. Patients undergoing one anastomosis gastric bypass with and without anti-reflux sutures (groups A and B, respectively). These patients had follow-ups for one year after the surgery. GERD symptoms were assessed in all the patients using the GERD symptom questionnaire. RESULTS The mean age was 39.5 ± 9.8 years and 40.7 ± 10.2 years in groups A and B respectively. GERD symptoms remission occurred in 76.5% and 68.4% of patients in groups A and B, respectively. The incidence of de novo GERD symptoms was lower in group A, compared to group B (6.2% and 16.1% in groups A and B respectively), without any statistically significant difference (p-value: 0.239). CONCLUSION GERD symptoms and de novo GERD after OAGB seems to be under-reported after OAGB. This study suggests that applying an anti-reflux suture can decrease de novo GERD symptoms.

Outcomes of One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass Conversion to Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass for Severe Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Obes Surg 2024; 34:976-984.

Abstract
One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is an effective procedure to treat severe obesity. However, conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is increasing. We therefore conducted a systematic review to determine the safety and efficacy associated with OAGB-RYGB conversion. A systematic search was conducted by three independent reviewers using Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane library following PRISMA guidelines. Six studies including 134 patients were selected who were undergoing OAGB-RYGB conversion. The most common indications were reflux (47.8%), malnutrition (31.3%), and inadequate weight loss (8.2%). Study outcomes demonstrated 100% resolution of bile reflux. Overall, there was medium-term weight gain of 0.61 BMI. OAGB to RYGB conversion leads to resolution of reflux symptoms. However, it is associated with weight regain, albeit this may be acceptable to patients to treat biliary reflux.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This review aims to investigate the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as one of the important concerns for both surgeons and patients after one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). METHOD PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane were reviewed by the end of the 2021 with keywords relating to GERD, OAGB, and their equivalents. Data regarding OAGB, number of patients with GERD, treatment for GERD, endoscopy findings, the interval between GERD and OAGB were retrieved by two independent investigators. The primary effect/effect size measure was prevalence. RESULTS 40 studies examining 17,299 patients were included revealing that 2% of patients experience GERD following OAGB. Reflux after revisional OAGB is six times higher than primary OAGB. Despite being unclear, medical and surgical treatments for GERD after OAGB were used in 60% and 41% of patients with estimated success rate of 85% and 100%, respectively. CONCLUSION Based on how GERD was identified after OAGB, its rate ranged from 0 to 55%; the pooled rate of 2% is near to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. GERD symptoms can be mild to be tolerated without medical treatment, moderate that respond to acid-reducing agents, or severe enough that are categorized as interactable and would need a surgical intervention.

ARQUIVOS BRASILEIROS DE CIRURGIA DIGESTIVA : ABCD = BRAZILIAN ARCHIVES OF DIGESTIVE SURGERY 2023; 36:e1759. [PMID: 37729276 PMCID: PMC10510373 DOI: 10.1590/0102-672020230041e1759] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Accepted: 07/13/2023] [Indexed: 09/22/2023]
Abstract
This Brazilian multi-society position statement on emerging bariatric and metabolic surgical procedures was issued by the Brazilian Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery (SBCBM), the Brazilian College of Digestive Surgery (CBCD), and the Brazilian College of Surgeons (CBC). This document is the result of a Brazilian Emerging Surgeries Forum aimed at evaluating the results of surgeries that are not yet listed in the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM), the regulatory agency that oversees and regulates medical practice in Brazil. The Forum integrated more than 400 specialists and academics with extensive knowledge about bariatric and metabolic surgery, representing the three surgical societies: SBCBM, CBC, and CBCD. International speakers participated online and presented their experiences with the techniques under discussion, emphasizing the regulatory policies in their countries. The indications for surgery and the subsequent procedures were carefully reviewed, including one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), single anastomosis duodeno-ileal with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S or OADS), sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (SGTB), and sleeve gastrectomy with ileal interposition (SGII). The recommendations of this document are based on an extensive literature review and discussions among bariatric surgery specialists from the three surgical societies. We concluded that patients with a body mass index over 30 kg/m2 may be candidates for metabolic surgery in the presence of comorbidities (arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes) with no response to clinical treatment of obesity or in the control of other associated diseases. Regarding the surgical procedures, we concluded that OAGB, OADS, and SGTB are associated with low morbidity rates, satisfactory weight loss, and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities such as diabetes and arterial hypertension. SGII was considered a good and viable promising surgical alternative technique. The recommendations of this statement aim to synchronize our societies with the sentiments and understandings of most of our members and also serve as a guide for future decisions regarding bariatric surgical procedures in our country and worldwide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) in patients with low body mass index patients is a topic of debate. This study aimed to address all aspects of controversies in these patients by using a worldwide survey. METHODS An online 35-item questionnaire survey based on existing controversies surrounding MBS in class 1 obesity was created by 17 bariatric surgeons from 10 different countries. Responses were collected and analysed by authors. RESULTS A total of 543 bariatric surgeons from 65 countries participated in this survey. 52.29% of participants agreed with the statement that MBS should be offered to class-1 obese patients without any obesity related comorbidities. Most of the respondents (68.43%) believed that MBS surgery should not be offered to patients under the age of 18 with class I obesity. 81.01% of respondents agreed with the statement that surgical interventions should be considered after failure of non-surgical treatments. CONCLUSION This survey demonstrated worldwide variations in metabolic/bariatric surgery in patients with class 1 obesity. Precise analysis of these results is useful for identifying different aspects for future research and consensus building.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Childhood obesity is an important worldwide issue of serious medical and social concern. One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is an approved, effective, and long-lasting procedure for weight loss and the remission of obesity-associated medical problems in the adult patients, but its efficacy and safety in children and adolescents are still on debate. This study aimed to evaluate safety and efficacy of OAGB compare to SG and RYGB during a 5-year follow-up. METHODS A retrospective cohort study on children and adolescents with severe obesity who underwent primary OAGB, sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and Roux-e-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) at an academic hospital, between March 2016 and December 2020. RESULTS Two hundred twenty-eight patients with 24 to 60 months of follow-up including 107 SG, 37 RYGB, and 84 OAGB were included in the final analysis. The mean age, preoperative weight, and BMI were 15.71 ± 2.09 years (range, 9-18 years), 126.3 ± 22.0 kg (74.5-215 kg), and 45.1 ± 6.9 kg/ m2 (36.4-79.3 kg/m2), respectively. The mean of follow-up was 30.05 ± 19.98 months. The mean of ∆BMI was 30.2 ± 5.1, 30.0 ± 5.4, and 31.1 ± 6.8 at 12th, 36th, and 60th months postoperative. At the 60-month follow-up, there were statistically significant differences in ΔBMI between SG and OAGB and SG and RYGB. CONCLUSION OAGB is a safe and effective procedure for the treatment of obesity in children and adolescents in 24 to 60 months follow-ups.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE Patients with phenylketonuria (PKU) exhibit a high incidence of obesity. Currently, bariatric surgery remains the most effective long-term treatment for obese patients. However, limited data regarding the applicability of bariatric surgery to obese patients with PKU have been reported in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION A case involving a young woman, in whom sleeve gastrectomy was performed to manage obesity that was resistant to conservative therapy, is presented herein. CLINICAL DISCUSSION The present report is the first to describe sleeve gastrectomy in an obese patient with PKU. The surgery proceeded without complications. Furthermore, the patient's phenylalanine levels remained under control for the first 3 months after surgery, with no major neurological complications. The diet prescribed in the first few months after surgery is complex; nevertheless, it is feasible to follow if supervised by a dietary team specialised in rare metabolic diseases. CONCLUSION Bariatric surgery in this patient with PKU did not result in any major complications. Surgery is feasible but it is important for the dietetic team involved to have expertise in PKU management.

Abstract
Although protein malnutrition (PM) is often reported after highly malabsorptive procedures, its exact incidence and mechanisms after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) are poorly understood. The aim of this study was to present a challenging clinical case of PM after RYGB and conduct a scoping review of the literature. Among the 18 studies with 3015 RYGB patients included in the review, the median incidence of PM was 1.7% (range, 0%-8.9%), and it was diagnosed 12 to 120 months after RYGB. The most common cause is insufficient oral intake of protein; however, in cases of persistent hypoalbuminemia, a thorough diagnostic workup needs to be performed. Risk factors for PM after RYGB include specific triggering events such as intractable vomiting and dysphagia, and a total alimentary limb length less than 250 to 300 cm.

Abstract
PURPOSE With the continued increase in bariatric procedures being performed in the USA, a growing percentage are revisions for weight regain after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and gastric banding (LAGB). Standard practice in the USA involves conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Internationally, one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) has become a popular and effective alternative. Without the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis, OAGB has reduced potential related long-term complications. The purpose of this study is to compare the short-term safety of revision to OAGB versus RYGB. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent conversion to OAGB from LAGB or SG for weight regain from January 2019 to October 2021 were compared to BMI, sex, and age-matched patients who underwent conversion to RYGB. RESULTS In our study, 82 patients were included, 41 in each cohort (41 OAGB vs. 41 RYGB). The majority in both groups underwent conversion from SG (71% vs. 78%). Operative time, estimated blood loss, and length of stay were comparable. There was no difference in 30-day complications (9.8% vs. 12.2%, p = .99) or reoperation (4.9% vs. 4.9%, p = .99). Mean weight loss at 1 month was also comparable (7.91 lbs vs 6.36 lbs). CONCLUSIONS Patients undergoing conversion to OAGB for weight regain had similar operative times, post-operative complication rates, and 1-month weight loss compared to those who underwent RYGB. While more research is needed, this early data suggests that OAGB and RYGB provide comparable outcomes when used as conversion procedures for to failed weight loss. Therefore, OAGB may present a safe alternative to RYGB.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) complication, such as leakage, can be dangerous and should be managed properly, yet little data exist in the literature regarding the management of leaks after OAGB, and there are no guidelines to date. METHODS The authors performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature and 46 studies, examining 44 318 patients were included. RESULTS There were 410 leaks reported in 44 318 patients of OAGB published in the literature, which represents a prevalence of 1% of leaks after OAGB. The surgical strategy was very variable among all the different studies; 62.1% of patients with leaks had to undergo another surgery due to the leak. The most commonly performed procedure was peritoneal washout and drainage (with or without T-tube placement) in 30.8% of patients, followed by conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass in 9.6% of patients. Medical treatment with antibiotics, with or without total parenteral nutrition alone, was conducted in 13.6% of patients. Among the patients with the leak, the mortality rate related to the leak was 1.95%, and the mortality due to the leak in the population of OAGB was 0.02%. CONCLUSION The management of leaks following OAGB requires a multidisciplinary approach. OAGB is a safe operation with a low leak risk rate, and the leaks can be managed successfully if detected in a timely fashion.

Abstract
AIM Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a rare disease; however, its incidence and mortality are increasing worldwide. The rapid aging of populations around the world is leading to an increased number of patients with cancer who develop disability in activities of daily living (ADL). This study was conducted to investigate the associations of perioperative ADL with patient survival after hepatic resection for ICC. METHODS We included 70 consecutive patients who underwent hepatectomy for ICC from 2010 to 2021 in the current study. Preoperative and postoperative ADL were evaluated based on the Barthel index, which yields a score of 0-100 points, with higher scores indicating greater independence. A preoperative or postoperative Barthel index score of <100 was defined as disability in perioperative ADL. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate hazard ratios after adjusting for potential confounders. RESULTS Among the 70 patients, seven (10%) had a preoperative Barthel index score of <100, and 23 (33%) showed a postoperative Barthel index score of <100. Multivariate analyses revealed that disability in perioperative ADL was associated with shorter recurrence-free survival (multivariable hazard ratios 2.38, 95% confidence interval 1.22-4.57; p = 0.011) and overall survival (multivariable hazard ratio 2.49, 95% confidence interval 1.09-5.70; p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS Disability in perioperative ADL is associated with shorter recurrence-free and overall survival after hepatic resection for ICC. Upon validation, perioperative measurement of ADL may improve risk assessment, and improvement of perioperative ADL may lead to favorable clinical outcomes in patients with ICC.

Abstract
Obesity is a chronic disorder with numerous manifestations as well as pandemic occurrence on a global scale. One-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is a safe and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases. Revision surgery may be necessary due to postoperative issues, such as protein-calorie deficiency, weight increase, or inadequate weight loss. This case describes a 40-year-old female patient who came to our service due to protein-caloric malnutrition, with a history of OAGB. The patient underwent revision surgery for OAGB reversal. One year after surgery the patient had a body mass index (BMI) of 25; today she is healthy, consumes a regular diet, and has no associated complications.

Abstract
The one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is one of the most popular performed bariatric surgeries and has good long-term success for treating obesity and metabolic diseases. However, some patients can develop severe complications such as malnutrition and hepatic steatosis, which can be corrected with a reversal procedure, as seen in this case. A 20-year-old woman underwent OAGB surgery, which was converted to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass 4 months after the initial procedure due to malnutrition, both surgeries were performed at a hospital in southern Mexico. After the second surgery, she presented to our hospital with intolerance to oral feeding, vomiting and loss of 44 kg in 4 months. The patient was stabilized and scheduled for reversion surgery to normal anatomy 5 months later. She had good short-term nutritional outcomes and at the 1-year follow-up her total weight gain was 14 kg.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is widely performed worldwide, its efficacy in patients with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 50 kg/m2 remains controversial. The aim of the present paper was to assess long-term (10 years or more) weight loss and metabolic results of RYGB in patients with superobesity (SO; BMI > 50 kg/m2), compared with patients with morbid obesity (MO; BMI 35-50 kg/m2). METHODS This study involved retrospective analysis of a prospectively followed cohort of adult patients operated on for a primary RYGB between 1999 and 2008. Long-term weight loss and metabolic parameters were compared between SO and MO patients, with a sex-specific subgroup analysis in SO patients. Multiple logistic regression assessed independent predictors of poor long-term weight loss. RESULTS Among the 957 included patients, 193 (20.2 per cent) were SO (mean BMI 55.3 kg/m2versus 43.3 kg/m2 in MO). Upon 10-year follow-up, which was complete in 86.3 per cent of patients, BMI remained higher in SO patients (mean 39.1 kg/m2versus 30.8 kg/m2, P < 0.001) although total bodyweight loss (per cent TBWL) was similar (28.3 per cent versus 28.8 per cent, P = 0.644). Male SO patients had a trend to higher 10-year per cent TBWL, while initial BMI greater than 50 kg/m2 and low 5-year per cent TBWL were independent predictors of long-term TBWL less than 20 per cent. Diabetes remission was observed in 39 per cent SO and 40.9 per cent MO patients (P = 0.335) at 10 years, and all patients had a significant lipid profile improvement. CONCLUSION Substantial improvement in co-morbidities was observed in all patients 10 years after RYGB. Total weight loss was similar in SO and MO patients, leaving SO patients with higher BMI. Suboptimal TBWL 5 years after surgery in SO, especially female patients, may warrant prompt reassessment to improve long-term outcomes.

Abstract
Background: One anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is safe and effective. Its strong malabsorptive component might cause severe protein–energy malnutrition (PEM), necessitating revisional surgery. We aimed to evaluate the safety and outcomes of OAGB revision for severe PEM. Methods: This was a single-center retrospective analysis of OAGB patients undergoing revision for severe PEM (2015–2021). Perioperative data and outcomes were retrieved. Results: Ten patients underwent revision for severe PEM. Our center’s incidence is 0.63% (9/1425 OAGB). All patients were symptomatic. Median (interquartile range) EWL and lowest albumin were 103.7% (range 57.6, 114) and 24 g/dL (range 19, 27), respectively, and 8/10 patients had significant micronutrient deficiencies. Before revision, nutritional optimization was undertaken. Median OAGB to revision interval was 18.4 months (range 15.7, 27.8). Median BPL length was 200 cm (range 177, 227). Reversal (n = 5), BPL shortening (n = 3), and conversion to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) (n = 2) were performed. One patient had anastomotic leak after BPL shortening. No death occurred. Median BMI and albumin increased from 22.4 kg/m2 (range 20.6, 30.3) and 35.5 g/dL (range 29.2, 41), respectively, at revision to 27.5 (range 22.2, 32.4) kg/m2 and 39.5 g/dL (range 37.2, 41.7), respectively, at follow-up (median 25.4 months, range 3.1, 45). Complete resolution occurs after conversion to RYGB or reversal to normal anatomy, but not after BPL shortening. Conclusions: Revisional surgery of OAGB for severe PEM is feasible and safe after nutritional optimization. Our results suggest that the type of revision may be an important factor for PEM resolution. Comparative studies are needed to define the role of each revisional option.

Abstract
PURPOSE With the global increase in life expectancy and the subsequent impaired quality of life in older obese adults, modalities such as bariatric surgery become crucial to help lose excess weight. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) in patients 65 years old and above. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective cohort study was conducted on 61 patients with severe obesity aged ≥ 65 years through Iran National Obesity Surgery Database. The patients had undergone OAGB and were followed up for 12 to 60 months. The required data was extracted through national database. RESULTS Mean age and BMI of the patients were 67.62 ± 2.03 years and 46.42 ± 5.46 kg/m2, respectively. Regarding gender, 90.1% of the participants were female. Mean operative time and length of hospital stay were 41.37 ± 13.91 min and 1.16 ± 0.61 days, respectively. Five patients (8.19%) required ICU admission. The changes in %TWL after 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60 month follow-up was 18.62%, 25.51%, 32.84%, 35.86%, 38.49%, 31.41%, and 29.52%, respectively. The resolution of gastroesophageal reflux disease, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea, and hypertension after 24 month was about 100%, 65%, 73.33%, 100%, and 76%, respectively. The postoperative early and late complications were 6.53% and 11.46%, respectively. We did not find significant difference in above results between two age groups of 65-70 and > 70 years. CONCLUSIONS OAGB can be a good choice in older obese adults because of its shorter operative time, higher potency, and low complication rate.
