Laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding is a surgical procedure that is increasingly being performed for the treatment of morbid obesity. As with any intervention, gastric banding is not free from complications. Complications after gastric banding can be divided into early and late complications. Early complications include band malposition and perforation of the stomach. Late complications comprise pouch dilatation, intraluminal band penetration and oesophageal dilatation. Understanding the principles of the intervention is essential for both the interpretation of the resulting radiographical findings and the diagnosis of potential complications. We report on the normal anatomy and the most frequent complications seen after gastric banding.

Background: The ring-augmented Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (raRYGB) has been reported to result in higher long-term weight loss compared to regular Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). However, the type of ring used varied within studies, leading to heterogeneity in reported results. Therefore, this study compares the 5-year results of RYGB with and without ring augmentation using a specific prefabricated gastric ring.

: Metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is a well-established treatment for severe obesity, yet its effects in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are not well understood. MBS in this population presents unique challenges, including the potential for exacerbating inflammatory disease activity and causing complications such as malnutrition and medication malabsorption. This study aims to assess the long-term outcomes of MBS in IBD patients, focusing on both metabolic outcomes and its impact on the course of IBD.

The present study employed a large scaled multicenter nationwide study data analysis to elucidate the impact of thromboembolism prophylaxis (TEP) in the context of bariatric and metabolic surgery and to investigate the peri- and postoperative complications associated with TEP. A total of 63,909 patients who underwent primary bariatric surgery between 2005 and 2020 were included in the analysis. The data were collected prospectively and multicentrically in the German Bariatric Surgery Registry (GBSR) and subsequently analyzed retrospectively.

Background: Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is a potentially refluxogenic operation while Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (LRYGB) is regarded as an anti-reflux procedure. The aim of this study is to compare long-term incidence of Barrett's Oesophagus (BO) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GORD) following LSG and LRYGB.

Methods: Participants of a double-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing banded LRYGB and LSG for remission of type 2 diabetes were contacted to take part.

Investigating the Results of One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass After Primary Metabolic and Bariatric Restrictive Procedures.

Department of Surgery, Minimally Invasive Surgery Research Center, Division of Minimally Invasive and Bariatric Surgery, Hazrat-E Fatemeh Hospital, School of Medicine, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.

Background: Previous studies showed a high conversion rate and failure of restrictive procedures, including sleeve gastrectomy (SG), adjustable gastric banding (AGB), gastric plication (GP), and vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG) in a long-term follow-up. The current study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a revisional one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) for weight loss and treatment of obesity-related problems after primary metabolic and bariatric restrictive procedures.

Methods: A retrospective study on prospectively collected data was conducted on a sample of 151 patients who experienced insufficient weight loss or weight regain after primary restrictive surgeries and underwent OAGB as a revisional procedure.
