    This study compares the long-term outcomes of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) as conversion procedures after failed LSG.

    RYGB is considered the gold standard for treating obesity and diabetes, while OAGB is a newer, simpler method but not universally accepted due to concerns about biliary reflux.

  • 3

    The study involved a retrospective review of patients who underwent conversion surgery after LSG failure, with a follow-up period of at least five years.

  • 4

    Indications for conversion included unsatisfactory weight loss or resistant gastro-esophageal reflux after LSG, assessed through BMI and %EWL.

  • 5

    Both procedures were performed by a specialized surgical team, with patient choice influencing the decision between RYGB and OAGB for conversion.
