A Three-Arm Randomized Controlled Trial of Primary One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass: With FundoRing or Nissen Fundoplications vs. without Fundoplication for the Treatment of Obesity and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

: Obesity and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are steadily increasing world weight and antireflux surgery must be performed simultaneously with bariatric surgery in obese patients. The purpose of this study is to compare bariatric and antireflux results after OAGB with different methods of fundoplication using the excluded stomach and without fundoplication. : This open-label, randomized, parallel three-arm trial was conducted from March 2019 and December 2021.

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Acid and Bile Reflux Esophagitis Prevention by Modified Fundoplication of the Excluded Stomach in One-Anastomosis Gastric Bypass: 1-Year Results of the FundoRing Trial.

Background: The advantages and disadvantages of one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) with primary modified fundoplication using the excluded stomach ("FundoRing") is unclear. We aimed to assess the impact of this operation in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) and answer the next questions: (1) What the impact of wrapping the fundus of the excluded part of the stomach in OAGB on protection in the experimental group against developing de novo reflux esophagitis? (2) If preoperative RE could be improved in the experimental group? (3) Can preoperative acid reflux as measured by PH impedance, be treated by the addition of the "FundoRing"?

Methods: The study design was a single-center prospective, interventional, open-label (no masking) RCT (FundoRing Trial) with 1-year follow-up. Endpoints were body mass index (BMI, kg/m) and acid and bile RE assessed endoscopically by Los Angeles (LA) classification and 24-h pH impedance monitoring.

One anastomosis gastric bypass with fundoplication of remnant stomach for weight regain prevention: Case report.

Introduction: Weight regain is a serious issue after bariatric surgery. Using banding for one anastomotic gastric bypass prevents weight regain, but carries the risk of band erosion. The combination of bariatric procedures and fundoplication for patients without hiatal hernia probably prevents weight regain.
