The ingestion of Asian persimmons, , is a known cause of gastric bezoars. Patients with a history of gastric operations are at high risk for formation. Different forms of bariatric surgery have been implicated, but literature for bezoar following a sleeve gastrectomy is scarce. This case report describes the pathogenesis, clinical course, and definitive management of gastric diospyrobezoar following a sleeve gastrectomy. With the rising incidence of bariatric procedures being performed, providers should include bezoar in the differential diagnosis in patients with suspected gastric outlet obstruction and should be aware of treatment options for this patient population.

December 2024
Department of Dental Medicine, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden.
Background: Bariatric surgery has been shown to cause a negative impact on oral health, as reflected by postsurgical increase of caries-related dental interventions.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare dental intervention rates after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG).
Setting: Nationwide and register-based (Sweden).

Aims: To assess the rates and predictors of resolution and relapse of metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in individuals undergoing sleeve gastrectomy (SG) or one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB).
Methods: This observational prospective cohort study involved 1618 propensity score-matched participants (81.5% female) with concurrent MASLD and obesity who underwent SG or OAGB between 2013 and 2023.
Background: To compare the mid-term efficacy and postoperative complications of two common bariatric procedures-single anastomotic duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG)-in treating obesity and metabolic syndrome.
Methods: Data from 186 patients undergoing SADI-S or SG between September 2013 and October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Propensity score matching (PSM) was applied in a 1:1 ratio, resulting in 78 patients included in the final analysis (39 per group).
Comparative effectiveness of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy in achieving diabetes remission in patients with diabetes-related vascular diseases: A multicentred study.
Clin Obes

Department of Surgery, Endocrine and Metabolic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, USA.
Metabolic and bariatric surgeries (MBS), including Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (SG), have proven effective in promoting long-term diabetes remission among patients with type-2 diabetes (T2D). In this multicentre retrospective cohort study, we investigated the effectiveness of RYGB and SG in achieving diabetes remission, specifically among patients with T2D and vascular complications, while accounting for similar baseline diabetes severity. Although various scores predict diabetes remission after bariatric surgery, they do not consider diabetes-related vascular complications, which can influence outcomes even in patients with similar baseline T2D severity.

Division of Bariatric and Foregut Surgery and the Obesity Institute, Geisinger Health System, Danville, Pennsylvania. Electronic address:
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).
