Purpose: We evaluated early results of this new procedure of transit loop bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy (TLB-SG), making a comparison with transit bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2017 and September 2017, 22 patients have undergone transit bipartition with sleeve gastrectomy or TLB-SG surgery in our clinic. Patients' body mass index, excess body mass index loss, and HOMA-IR were calculated before and after the surgical operation. The values of c-peptide, HgA1C, insulin, blood sugar, albumin, Hg, urea, creatinine, calcium, total cholesterol, 25-hydroxy vitamin D, and vitamin B12 were evaluated retrospectively.

Results: Vitamin and mineral deficiency, malnutrition, and anemia were not observed in both groups during the follow-up process. The operation time was shorter in the TLB-SG operation. Both groups were found to be effective at the expected level in terms of weight loss, diabetes remission, and improvement.

Conclusions: TLB-SG is a more effective and simpler method, becoming a candidate for being the most frequently performed surgical operation, in the field of metabolic surgery.

Sleeve gastrectomy with proximal jejunal bypass (SG with PJB) is often preferred for patients with higher body mass index (BMI) and inadequate glycemic control. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of SG and SG with PJB, focusing on glycemic control and BMI in prediabetic and diabetic patients. Preoperative analysis revealed differences in age and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels between groups: SG with PJB patients were older (38.
