Abstract

Of 25,760 adults who underwent surgical conversion after sleeve gastrectomy, conversions to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch or single-anastomosis duodenoileostomy showed lower odds of 30-day complications compared to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.

  • Patients converting to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) had a lower average preoperative body mass index (39.8) compared to those converting to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) or single-anastomosis duodenoileostomy (SADI) (46.1).
  • The majority of RYGB conversions were performed for reflux (56.1%), while most BPD-DS and SADI conversions were for weight-related complications (87.3%).
  • In matched analyses for weight recurrence, the odds of experiencing 30-day complications were lower for BPD-DS + SADI conversions (odds ratio .73) compared to RYGB (P = .019).
  • Patients undergoing BPD-DS + SADI conversions also had lower odds of readmission (odds ratio .77) compared to those converted to RYGB (P = .031).
  • No significant differences were found in the odds of 30-day reintervention or reoperation between RYGB and BPD-DS + SADI conversions.
  • Hemorrhage rates were higher in RYGB conversions (1.98%) compared to BPD-DS + SADI conversions (0.87%) (P = .001).
