Abstract
The mean at 60 months after was 92.1% ± 25.8%.
- Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and one anastomosis gastric bypass showed similar weight loss patterns, while Roux-en-Y gastric bypass resulted in further weight reduction starting in the third year.
- Patients who revised from laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass experienced greater weight loss (102.1%) compared to those revised to mini-gastric bypass (84.6%).
- Nutritional deficiencies were common, with 41.2% of revised laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy patients experiencing iron deficiency and 14.3% developing new vitamin D deficiencies.
- Eighty-five percent of patients reported improvements in quality of life and expressed a willingness to undergo surgery again.
- There is a need for individualized supplementation and long-term monitoring due to the prevalence of deficiencies.
