    Bariatric surgery, specifically LSG and LRYGB, is effective for severe obesity but can impact esophageal function and GERD outcomes.

  • 2

    LSG may increase GERD incidence due to factors like weakened LES and increased intragastric pressure, while LRYGB generally provides better GERD management.

  • 3

    The study compared LSG and LRYGB effects on esophageal function and GERD in 30 patients with severe obesity using various diagnostic methods.

  • 4

    Patients underwent comprehensive evaluations, including GERD symptom assessments and esophageal monitoring, prior to surgery.

  • 5

    Postoperative evaluations at 12 months assessed weight loss, GERD symptoms, and esophageal function to determine surgical effectiveness.
