Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy versus laparoscopic mini gastric bypass: One year outcomes.

Purpose: Sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and mini gastric bypass (LMGB) was considered as emerging procedures but are now considered for many authors as an alternative of the Roux-Y gastric bypass because of similar percentages of weight loss and better postoperative morbidity profiles. However, studies comparing LSG and LMGB are scarce.

Materials And Methods: From January 2010 to July 2014, 262 and 161 patients underwent LSG or LMGB in two centre of bariatric surgery, respectively.
