Background: Among commonly performed bariatric surgeries, biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) provides greater weight loss than Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or sleeve gastrectomy (SG), with sustained metabolic improvements. However, the risk of long-term nutritional deficiencies due to the hypoabsorptive component of BPD-DS hinders its widespread use.
Objective: The aim of the study was to examine nutritional status over 2 years after BPD-DS, RYGB or SG.
Objective: To determine the rate of histology-proven Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection in patients undergoing bariatric surgery and to identify risk factors for HP infection.
Methods: In a retrospective analysis, patients who underwent bariatric surgery with gastric resection in a single hospital between January 2004 and January 2019 were analyzed. For each patient, a surgical specimen was submitted for anatomopathological examination and analyzed for gastritis or other anomalies.
