We show the long-term efficacy and safety of modified biliopancreatic diversion for the treatment of LPL-deficiency. How this option compares with gene therapy is difficult to evaluate due to limited experience. Surgery may be the first option in patients in whom medical therapy is ineffective and gene therapy not applicable.

Background: With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) in medical education, tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT-4 and DALL·E 3 have potential applications in enhancing learning materials. This study aims to evaluate ChatGPT-4o's proficiency in recognizing bariatric surgical procedures from illustrations and assess DALL·E 3's effectiveness in generating accurate surgical illustrations.

Methods: Illustrations of six bariatric surgical procedures (One Anastomosis Gastric Bypass, Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass, Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy, Sleeve Gastrectomy, Biliopancreatic Diversion, and Adjustable Gastric Banding) were sourced from the IFSO Atlas of Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery.

Background: Patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥50 have more obesity-associated medical problems and often require more aggressive surgical management. Few single-institution comparative studies have been published examining this specific population.

Objectives: The study aims to compare the weight loss and diabetes remission effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS).

Purpose: The effectiveness of biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD/DS) for weight loss is well established, yet there remains ongoing debate over optimal limb lengths to maximize weight loss without compromising safety. We aimed to evaluate the impact of BPD/DS limb lengths on weight loss outcomes and comorbidity resolution.

Material And Methods: A multicenter review of patients who underwent primary BPD/DS between 2008 and 2022.

Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) and single anastomosis duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve (SADI-S) are associated with superior and sustained weight loss outcomes. Despite their growing popularity, long-term safety profiles, particularly the risk of internal hernia (IH), remain underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence and characteristics of IH following BPD-DS and SADI-S procedures, comparing their clinical presentation, diagnostic methods, and outcomes.

Background: Use of online crowdfunding to mitigate health-related cost burden is common in the US, but its usage among candidates for metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is unknown. We aimed to identify GoFundMe campaigns fundraising for MBS and characterize sources of financial strain. We also aimed to determine factors associated with successful crowdfunding.
