| More Details: | Introduction: Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health. Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple index of weight for height (kg/m2) that is commonly used to classify overweight and obesity in adults. Mini Gastric Bypass (MGB) leads to improved quality of life, reduction in episodes of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), high patient acceptance, early safety, and efficacy. Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) is a restrictive, irreversible procedure in which stomach capacity is markedly reduced by creating a lesser curvature tube. MGB is mildly restrictive but importantly, a malabsorptive operation. Many observational studies have concluded that better weight loss and diabetes remission are the advantages of MGB. However, comparative studies of outcomes and complications between Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy (LSG) and MGB are still scarce. Aim: To compare the effectiveness and outcomes regarding weight loss after LSG and MGB in morbidly obese patients. Materials and Methods: This prospective cohort study was carried out in the Department of Surgery of SPS Hospital, Ludhiana, Punjab, India from 1st June 2018 to 31st May 2019. Adults between 20-70 years of age and with BMI >37.5 without co-morbidities, and BMI >32.5 with co-morbidities Type II Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) were included. The authors included 59 patients; 34 patients underwent MGB (22 were female and 12 were male) and 25 patients underwent LSG (18 were female and 7 were male). A comparison of continuous variables between the study groups was done using the Student’s t-test. For comparing categorical data, a Chi-square (χ2) test was performed. Results: The overall % Excess Weight Loss (EWL) after MGB ranged from 27.74 to 62.32% with a mean of 44.88±17.44%. The overall % EWL after LSG ranged from 26.62 to 45.8% with a mean of 36.21±9.59%. (p0.05). None of the patients required readmission post LSG, while 3% (1/34) required readmission post MGB. None of the patients had postoperative leakage in both groups. Conclusion: The better outcome was associated with MGB in terms of the percentage of Excess Weight Loss (EWL). |
