Weight Loss Outcomes and Lifestyle Patterns Following Sleeve Gastrectomy: an 8-Year Retrospective Study of 212 Patients.

Purpose: Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is an effective treatment for extreme obesity; however, long-term weight loss outcomes remain largely understudied. We aimed to examine the long-term weight changes following SG and patient characteristics and lifestyle patterns related to weight loss outcomes.

Materials And Methods: Data from medical records of patients operated in a tertiary university medical center between 2008 and 2014 were reviewed, along with information derived from a telephone questionnaire.

The long-term effect of pregnancy on weight loss after sleeve gastrectomy.

Background: Pregnancy outcomes after bariatric surgery have been addressed extensively; however, the impact of pregnancy on long-term outcomes after bariatric surgery has only been sparsely studied.

Objectives: We explored the effects of pregnancy on weight loss outcomes after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).

Setting: University hospital.
