Abstract
BACKGROUND Conversional surgery is common after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) because of suboptimal weight loss (SWL) or poor responders and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is the most common conversional procedure after LSG. METHODS A retrospective cohort study analyzed patients who underwent primary RYGB (PRYGB) or conversional RYGB (CRYGB) at three specialized bariatric centers between 2008 and 2019 and tested for weight loss, resolution of GERD, food tolerance (FT), early and late complications, and the resolution of associated medical problems. This was analyzed by propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS In total, 558 (PRYGB) and 155 (CRYGB) completed at least 2 years of follow-up. After PSM, both cohorts significantly decreased BMI from baseline (p < 0.001). The CRYGB group had an initially more significant mean BMI decrease of 6.095 kg/m2 at 6 months of follow-up (p < 0.001), while the PRYGB group had a more significant mean BMI decrease of 5.890 kg/m2 and 8.626 kg/m2 at 1 and 2 years, respectively (p < 0.001). Food tolerance (FT) improved significantly in the CRYGB group (p < 0.001), while CRYGB had better FT than PRYGB at 2 years (p < 0.001). A GERD resolution rate of 92.6% was recorded in the CRYGB (p < 0.001). Both cohorts had comparable rates of early complications (p = 0.584), late complications (p = 0.495), and reoperations (p = 0.398). Associated medical problems at 2 years significantly improved in both cohorts (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS CRYGB is a safe and efficient option in non- or poor responders after LSG, with significant weight loss and improvement in GERD. Moreover, PRYGB and CRYGB had comparable complications, reoperations, and associated medical problem resolution rates.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revisional bariatric surgery (RBS) has been increasingly performed due to weight loss failure (WLF). Many revisional procedures have been proposed after primary laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (pLSG) failure, including ReSleeve gastrectomy (ReLSG), and laparoscopic one anastomosis gastric bypass (LOAGB). Choosing the RBS post-pLSG failure represents a challenge. WLF without gastric tube (GT) dilation is undoubtedly converted to a malabsorptive procedure, but the presence of GT dilation makes it more difficult to select a RBS. This study aimed to compare two relatively simple revisional procedures after pLSG failure with dilated GT to help decision making on which procedure better done to which patient. METHODS Data of 52 patients who completed one year follow-up (FU) after their RBS (ReLSG: 27 or LOAGB: 25) for their failed pLSG were collected, assessed, correlated to weight loss (WL) and compared. RESULTS Mean operative time was 97 ± 18.4 min. with revisional LOAGB (RLOAGB) and 62 ± 11 min. with ReLSG. Six patients (11.5%) had seven postoperative procedure-specific complications. Significant hemorrhage occurred in three patients. Two cases of leakage were encountered with each procedure. LOAGB Patients had lower mean final weight (76.2 ± 10.5 vs 85.3 ± 13), lower mean Final BMI (26.4 ± 2.5 vs 29.7 ± 2.9) and higher mean percentage of excess weight loss (EWL%) (83.6 ± 13.5% vs 60.29 ± 14.6%). All RLOAGB patients and 77.8% of ReLSG patients had EWL% > 50%. RLOAGB patients had higher EWL% compared to ReLSG (p < 0.001). Insufficient WL (IWL) patients had higher EWL% compared to weight regain (WR) patients (p = 0.034). CONCLUSION Both procedures (RLOAGB and ReLSG) were relatively safe and effective in terms of WL. RLOAGB led to higher WL compared to ReLSG in all types of patients despite higher Caloric intake. IWL patients had more WL compared to WR patients. WL was not related to GT dilation type. Large-scale longer-FU studies are still needed. TRIAL REGISTRATION PACTR202310644487566 (retrospectively registered).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Weight loss failure or weight regain may occur after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). Revisional surgery includes distalization. However, few studies have looked at the associations between the total alimentary limb length (TALL) and weight loss outcomes, none with long-term results. OBJECTIVES Peri- and postoperative outcomes were assessed after employing TALL of either 250 cm or 300 cm in the failed RYGB. METHODS This study is a retrospective cohort analysis of 90 patients that underwent laparoscopic distalization between January 2006 and January 2016 due to failed RYBG. The index RYGB was modified to TALL of 250 cm (n = 48) or of 300 cm (n = 42) which entailed elongating the bilio-pancreatic limb (BPL) and transposing the Roux limb (RL) to a common limb (CL) of 100 cm and 150 cm, respectively. Long-term weight loss outcomes along with nutritional and vitamin status were analyzed. RESULTS Preoperative BMI at distalization was 38.6 kg/m2. After 8 years, excess weight loss (EWL) was 61.8%. No differences between the two groups were seen in weight loss outcomes or early surgical complication rates (6.7%). However, more vitamin and nutritional deficiencies were present in the TALL 250-cm group (50.0% and 35.4%, respectively) versus the TALL 300-cm group (33.3% and 14.3% respectively), which led to laparoscopic revision in 27 patients by lengthening the TALL with 100 cm. Patients with weight regain after index RYGB had in average 59.9% higher EWL than patients with EWL failure. CONCLUSION Distalization of the failed RYGBP is safe and effective, but TALL should not be shorter than 300 cm (and CL 150 cm) due to high rates of malnutrition. Adequate supplementation and long-term follow-up are mandatory to prevent serious malnutrition.

Abstract
CONTEXT Weight loss after bariatric surgery can be accurately predicted using an outcomes calculator; however, outliers exist that do not meet the 1 year post-surgery weight projections. OBJECTIVE Our goal was to determine how soon after surgery these outliers can be identified. DESIGN We conducted a retrospective cohort study. SETTING, PATIENTS, AND INTERVENTION Using a bariatric surgery outcomes calculator formulated by the Michigan Bariatric Surgery Collaborative (MBSC), predicted weight loss at 1 year post-surgery was calculated on all patients who underwent primary bariatric surgery at a single-center academic institution between 2006 and 2015 who also had a documented 1-year follow-up weight (n = 1050). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Weight loss curves were compared between high, low, and non-outliers as defined by their observed-to-expected (O:E) weight loss ratio based on total body weight loss (TBWL) %. RESULTS Mean predicted weight loss for the study group was 39.1 ± 9.9 kg, while mean actual weight loss was 39.7 ± 17.1 kg resulting in a mean O:E 1.01 (± 0.35). Based on analysis of the O:E ratios at 1 year post-surgery, the study group was sub-classified. Low outliers (n = 188, O:E 0.51) had significantly lower weight loss at 2 months (13.1% vs 15.6% and 16.5% TBWL, p < 0. 001) and at 6 months (19% vs 26% and 30% TBWL, p < 0.001) when compared to non-outliers (n = 638, O:E 1.00) and high outliers (n = 224, O:E 1.46), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Weight loss curves based on individually calculated outcomes can help identify low outliers for additional interventions as early as 2 months after bariatric surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several modalities have been proposed to tackle insufficient weight loss and weight regain after bariatric surgery; we aimed to evaluate efficacy and safety of duodenal switch conversion as a salvage procedure. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data from patients who underwent duodenal switch conversions (n = 50) were retrospectively studied. Excess weight loss % and total body weight loss % were compared between primary procedure and duodenal switch conversion. Overall complication, emergency department visits, readmissions, reoperation, and mortality rates were described, analyzed, and compared to the current literature. RESULTS Every excess weight loss % and total body weight loss % comparison at 6, 12, and 24 months, demonstrated a statistically significant superiority in weight loss after duodenal switch conversion (p < 0.05). The mean operative time of adjustable gastric band, sleeve gastrectomy, Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (1 and 2 stages) conversions to duodenal switch were 208, 146, 187, and 152 min, respectively, while the mean length of stay was 3.38 days. No statistically significant differences were perceived regarding the primary procedure. The overall complication rate was 18% (9 patients); 3 patients (6%) had 1 emergency department visit; readmissions accounted for 12% of cases (6 patients); the reoperation rate was 10% (5 patients); no fatal outcomes were recorded. CONCLUSION Duodenal switch conversions are an effective salvage procedure for insufficient weight loss and/or weight regain after adjustable gastric band, sleeve gastrectomy, and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass; it is also safe, associated to low readmission, reoperation, and mortality rates.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to provide reference values for the percentage total weight loss during 1 year after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy associated with primary response in Japan. METHODS This multicenter retrospective study comprised 248 patients with severe obesity who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at five institutions in Japan. A percentage total weight loss < 20% at 1 year was defined as primary non-response. Parsimonious predictive models were developed based on the results of multiple regression analyses. A receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to assess the discriminative performance for primary non-response. RESULTS The median age, initial body mass index, and percentage total weight loss at 1 year were 41 years, 41.4 kg/m2, and 30.1%, respectively. There were 28 (11.3%) primary non-responders. For discriminating primary non-responders, the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the parsimonious model and actual percentage of total weight loss at 3 months after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy were 0.846 and 0.803, respectively. Cutoffs for the predicted percentage total weight loss using the model and actual value of percentage total weight loss at 3 months attaining 80% sensitivity were 30% and 22%, and those attaining 98% specificity were 22% and 15%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Reference values for the percentage total weight loss at 3 months were obtained using the predictive model and actual value of percentage total weight loss at 3 months. Patients at risk for primary non-response can be determined at 3 months with these values, which can help in considering earlier interventions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Primary nonresponse (1NR) - inability to achieve adequate weight loss after surgery - and secondary nonresponse (2NR) - excessive weight regain after initial adequate weight loss after surgery - can occur in up to 25-35% of patients after bariatric surgery. The aim of this study was to explore the variations in both definition as well as management of 1NR and 2NR amongst bariatric surgeons. MATERIALS AND METHODS An online survey was distributed to all members of the national bariatric societies in the Netherlands and Belgium regarding questions about definition, work-up and treatment of 1NR and 2NR after bariatric surgery. RESULTS A total of 45 responses from bariatric surgeons were obtained, representing 32 medical centers that perform bariatric procedures. When assessing 1NR, excess weight loss(EWL) was reported to be used by most respondents(30/45), total body weight loss(TBWL) by 18/45 and body mass index(BMI) by 25/45. A great variation in cut off values was observed. When assessing 2NR, percentage weight gain from the lowest (nadir) weight was preferred most by 22/45 respondents with cut off values varying from 5 to 20%. Most respondents deemed 18 months after initial surgery the most appropriate timeframe to determine 1NR or 2NR. CONCLUSIONS The current practice regarding primary and secondary nonresponse after bariatric surgery has a wide variety in definitions, work-up and treatment options. Consensus on the definition of 1NR and 2NR is needed to optimize the treatment of bariatric patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revisional surgery after failed laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is growing and laparoscopic one anastomosis gastric bypass (LOAGB) has been proposed as a revisional procedure due to its combined restrictive and malabsorptive effects. The aim is to study short-term complications and weight loss (WL) results of the revisional LOAGB after LSG for the two-weight loss failure (WLF) types [insufficient weight loss (IWL) and weight regain (WR)] and to assess the possible effects of these two types of failure and gastric tube anatomy on the final outcome. METHODS The data of 28 patients who completed 1-year follow-up for their revisional LOAGB after their failed LSG were assessed and statistically correlated to leakage and one year WL results. RESULTS Operative time was 96 ± 17.4 min. Leakage occurred in 2 patients (7.1%); the small number of leak patients does not allow statistical analysis for leakage. Percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL) at one year was 79.0 ± 14.4%; percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) was 31.7 ± 6.4%. %EWL was 84.2 ± 13.1 with IWL and 73.0 ± 13.9 with WR (P = 0.036). %TWL was 35.0 ± 5.2 with IWL and 27.8 ± 5.5 with WR (P = 0.001). %TWL at persistent fundus, diffusely dilated, and nondilated stomach were 38.98 ± 4.57, 31.3 ± 5.33, and 28.54 ± 5.91, respectively (P = 0.006). CONCLUSION LOAGB is a highly effective and safe procedure as a revision after LSG with WLF. Patients with IWL and patients with persistent fundus lost more weight than those with WR and those with diffuse stomach dilation or nondilation, respectively.

Abstract
Morbid obesity is a global chronic disease, and bariatric procedures have been approved as the best method to control obesity. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is one of the most common bariatric surgeries in the world and has become the gold standard procedure for many years. However, some patients experience weight regain or weight loss failure after the initial bypass surgery and require revisional or conversional interventions. International databases including PubMed, International Scientific Indexing (ISI), and Scopus were considered for a systematic search of articles that were published by 5th of May 2020. Forty-one published studies, which reported revision procedure on 1403 patients, were selected and analyzed for this review. The selected studies were categorized into six groups of revision procedures, including laparoscopic pouch resizing and/or revision of gastro-jejunal anastomosis (GJA), adjustable or non-adjustable gastric band over pouch ± pouch/GJA resizing, endoscopic revision of gastric GJA ± pouch, distal Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (DRGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) or single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with gastric sleeve (SADI-S), DRGB + Band or pouch/GJA resizing. Revision procedures result in more weight loss after the initial weight loss procedures. In the one-year follow-up, DRGB by itself with standardized mean difference (SMD) of - 1.24 presented a greater decrease in body mass index (BMI). DRGB plus band or pouch/GJA resizing, BPD-DS or SADI, adjustable or non-adjustable gastric banding over pouch ± pouch/GJA resizing, endoscopic pouch and/or GJA revision and laparoscopic pouch or/and GJA resizing revealed a lower decrease in BMI in order, respectively. In the three-year follow-up, BPD-DS or SADI-S method with SMD of - 1.40 presented the highest decrease in BMI. In follow, DRGB alone, adjustable or non-adjustable gastric banding over gastric pouch ± pouch / GJA resizing, DRGB + Band or gastric pouch/GJA resizing, laparoscopic pouch and/or GJA resizing and endoscopic revision of pouch and/or GJA revealed less reduction in BMI, respectively. In the five-year follow-up, DRGB alone procedures with SMD of - 2.17 presented the greatest reduction in BMI. Subsequently, BPD-DS or SADI-S, laparoscopic pouch and/or GJA size revision, and endoscopic revision of GJA/pouch revealed less overall decrease in BMI in order. All methods of revision procedures after the initial RYGB have been effective in the resolution of weight regain. However, based on the findings in this systematic review, it seems DRGB or BPD-DS/SADI-S is the most effective procedure in the long-term follow-up outcome. More studies with a higher number of patients and even longer follow-ups will be required to obtain more accurate data and outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revisional procedures in bariatric surgery are increasing with several debated failure risk factors, such as super obesity and old age. No study has yet evaluated the outcomes and risks of a third bariatric procedure indicated for weight loss failure or weight regain. OBJECTIVES To assess failure risks of a third bariatric procedure according to Reinhold's criteria (percentage excess weight loss [%EWL] ≤50% and/or body mass index [BMI] ≥35 kg/m2). SETTING A university-affiliated tertiary care center, France. METHODS From 2009 to 2019, clinical data and weight loss results of patients who benefited from 3 bariatric procedures for weight loss failure or weight regain were collected prospectively and analyzed using a binary logistic regression. Weight loss failure was defined according to Reinhold's criteria. RESULTS Among 1401 bariatric procedures performed, 336 patients benefited from 2 or more procedures, and 45 had a third surgery. Eleven patients that were reoperated on because of malnutrition or gastroesophageal reflux disease were excluded from the final analysis. Among 34 patients with 3 procedures because of weight loss failure or regain, mean BMI was 48.3 ± 8.3 kg/m2, and mean age was 30 ± 10.7 years. Three out of 34 patients (9%) presented a severe complication (Dindo-Clavien IIIb) and 2 (6%) had a minor one. Achieving Reinhold's weight loss criteria after the second bariatric procedure was a significant predictor of success of the third procedure (β = 2.9 ± 1.3 S.E.). CONCLUSION Not reaching Reinhold's criteria after a second bariatric procedure was identified as a significant risk factor of failure of a third procedure. A third surgery should be carefully discussed especially in case of primary failure of previous procedures.

Abstract
Some patients may experience inadequate weight loss or weight regain due to gastric pouch dilation after one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). Dilated gastric pouch resizing (GPR) associated with correction of eating behavior was suggested as an option in the management of these patients. Retrospective analysis of 17 consecutives patients who underwent a GPR between 2007 and 2017 was undertaken. At revision, the mean body mass index (BMI) and percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) were 41.5 ± 11 kg/m2 and 15 ± 10, respectively. Overall morbidity rate was 6.7% (n = 1). Two years after revision, the mean BMI and %TWL were 34.1 ± 5 kg/m2 and 31 ± 13, respectively. GPR appeared to be a satisfactory option resulting in mid-term secondary weight loss in well selected patients at the expense of non-negligible morbidity rate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Recently, a single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) has become increasingly popular for patients with BMI > 50 as a primary or staged surgery. Staging allows surgeons to do the sleeve gastrectomy (SG) first with the conversion only happening when a failure or technical challenge is identified. PURPOSE We present the mid-term outcomes of SADI bypass surgery after SG. METHOD A retrospective analysis was performed on a prospective database from four institutions. Ninety-six patients were identified from 2013 to 2018. Patients were divided into two groups: one had two-stage SADI because of insufficient weight loss, the second had planned two-stage SADI because of super obesity (BMI > 50 kg/m2). Incidence of complications was divided into < 30 days and > 30 days. RESULT Of 96 patients, 3 patients were completely lost to follow-up. The mean age was 44.8 ± 11.3 years. There were no deaths or conversion to open surgery. The postoperative early complication and late complication rate was 5.3% and 6.4% respectively. At 24 months, group 2 had higher %weight loss (WL) and change in BMI units compared to group 1 with statistically significant difference. The average WL and change in BMI for entire patient's population at 24 months after 2nd stage SADI was 20.5% and 9.4 units respectively. The remission rate for DM was 93.7% with or without the use of medication. CONCLUSION The two-stage approach to SADI-S appears technically simpler than a single compromised operation. However, this approach needs more patients to understand its limitations.

Abstract
Lack of standard definitions of primary and secondary (non)responders after RYGB and SG makes it impossible to compare the literature. The aim was to analyze the different definitions used. MEDLINE® was searched for literature published between 01-07-2014 and 01-07-2017 concerning (1) patients who received a primary RYGB or SG and (2) the outcomes of primary and secondary (non)responders. One hundred twelve out of 650 papers were eligible. Forty out of 47 papers described a definition of weight loss success. Sixty-seven out of 112 papers mentioned weight loss failure of which 42 described a definition, in total 23 different definitions. Weight regain was mentioned in 77 papers; only 21 papers provided a definition. The recent literature regarding definitions of these outcomes is highly inconsistent. To compare the literature international consensus is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (SG) has gained popularity as a standalone procedure. However, long-term complications are reported, mainly weight loss failure and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Therefore, demand for revisional surgery is rising. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to report preliminary results within the 2 main indications for laparoscopic conversion of SG to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). SETTING University Hospital, France. METHODS Data from all patients who underwent laparoscopic conversion from SG to RYGB were retrospectively analyzed as to indications for revisional surgery, weight loss, and complications. RESULTS Forty patients underwent conversion, 29 cases (72.5%) for weight loss failure and 11 cases for refractory GERD (27.5%). The mean interval from SG to RYGB was 32.6 months (range 8-113). Revisional surgery was attempted by laparoscopy in all cases, and conversion to laparotomy was necessary in 3 patients (7.5%). Mean length of follow-up was 18.6 months (range 9-60) after conversion. Follow-up rate was 100%. Mean percent total weight loss and percent excess weight loss were 34.7% and 64%, respectively, when calculated from weight before SG. Remission rate for GERD was 100%. Improvement was observed for all co-morbidities after conversion. There was no immediate postoperative mortality. The postoperative complication rate was 16.7%. According to the Clavien-Dindo classification, there were 5 grade II and 2 grade IIIa complications. CONCLUSION Laparoscopic conversion of SG to RYGB is safe and feasible. In the short term, it appears to be effective in treating GERD and inducing significant additional weight loss and improvement of co-morbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is a very effective treatment for obesity and its related co-morbidities. However, some patients fail to achieve>50% of their excess weight loss (EWL), and others regain much of the weight that they lost. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze early outcomes after conversion of RYGB to duodenal switch (DS) in terms of weight loss, change in co-morbidities, and complications. SETTING This is a retrospective analysis from 1 surgeon at a single private institution. METHODS We analyzed data from 32 obese patients retrospectively who underwent revision for failed RYGB. Nine patients underwent DS with Roux-en-Y reconstruction (RYDS), and 23 patients underwent single anastomosis DS between October 2012 and December 2015. Regression analyses were performed for all follow-up weight-loss data. RESULTS The patients experienced mean EWL of 16.2% over an average of 16 years (range: 0-38) with their primary RYGB surgery. Of 32 patients who underwent revision DS, 22 patients are beyond the 1-year postoperative mark (follow-up 81.8%), and 15 patients are beyond the 2-year postoperative mark (follow-up 73.3%). One patient was lost to follow-up. The patients experienced mean EWL of 31.2%, 45.1%, 51%, 54.2%, 56%, and 56.4% at 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months, respectively, after their revisional surgery. Mean total weight loss achieved at 12 and 24 months was 27.7% and 29.2%, respectively. There was no statistical significant difference in mean %EWL at 12 months (P = .468) and 24 months (P = .266) between RYDS and single anastomosis DS. CONCLUSION A laparoscopic revision from RYGB to DS is an effective weight-loss operation with midterm follow-up of 2 years. Though long-term follow-up is warranted to measure recidivism, the initial data seem favorable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Determinants of success of a bariatric procedure are many but paramount is the ability to durably produce significant and reliable weight loss. We sought to determine the primary success of the laparoscopic adjustable gastric band (LAGB) by defining failure as clinical weight loss failure with an intact band (excess weight loss [EWL]<20%) or band removal (terminal removal or conversion to a secondary bariatric procedure). METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed on patients who underwent an LAGB as a primary bariatric procedure between January 2003 and December 2007. Data collected included body mass index (BMI), weight, postoperative follow-up length, EWL, and adjustment number, as well as complications of the LAGB. RESULTS Sixteen of 120 patients had the band removed. Nine were terminally removed for unmanageable symptoms, and 7 were converted to an alternative bariatric procedure. The average follow-up for the 104 patients with an intact band was 4.8 years. The average EWL for successful intact bands was 44.9±19.4%; however, an additional 35.6% of patients had an EWL<20%. Patients with an EWL<20% had a significantly higher preoperative BMI and fewer band adjustments. In total, 44% of patients had band failure because of clinical weight loss failure (31%) or eventual band removal (13%). CONCLUSION This study finds that the LAGB failed as a primary bariatric procedure for 44% of patients because of either inadequate weight loss or adequate weight loss with unmanageable symptoms. This suggests that the LAGB should be abandoned as a primary bariatric procedure for the majority of morbidly obese patients because of its high failure rate.
