Type 2 diabetes mellitus remission following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and hindgut-based procedure: a retrospective multicenter study.

Sleeve gastrectomy (SG) is considered the standard bariatric surgery due to its excellent outcomes. However, in patients with obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), SG alone carries a high risk of metabolic failure. To achieve better metabolic results, SG can be combined with either foregut- or hindgut-based procedures, although a direct comparison between these approaches is lacking.
