Introduction: The data comparing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) in patients with BMI ≥ 60 kg/m is scarce.
Methods: Prospectively collected data of patients with BMI ≥ 60 kg/m undergoing LSG or OAGB from January 2008 until June 2022 was analyzed retrospectively. Weight loss outcomes, impact on comorbidities, and complications were compared in both groups.
Introduction And Importance: Intra-arterial injections (IA) though rare, cause acute limb ischaemia with often catastrophic outcomes. Symptoms could progress rapidly and early identification and intervention could help in preventing the limb gangrene.
Methodology: The work has been reported in line with the SCARE 2020 criteria:Agha RA, Franchi T, Sohrabi C, Mathew G, for the SCARE Group.
Banded sleeve gastrectomy (BSG) was developed to restrict progressive dilation of the gastric sleeve, which remains a commonly implicated reason for weight regain following SG. The present study attempted to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing the two procedures. Literature search was performed across PubMed and Google Scholar, using the keywords "Banded Sleeve Gastrectomy", "Sleeve gastrectomy", "Banded", "BSG" and "LSG".

Methods: We present a follow up to our initial report with a series of 42 hind foot corrections in 40 patients from a tertiary level teaching hospital in the United Kingdom. The mean patient age was 59 (33-82).
