Robotic "Double Loop" Roux-en-Y gastric bypass reduces the risk of postoperative internal hernias: a prospective observational study.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Internal herniation (IH) is a potentially serious complication after laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). The aim of the study is to evaluate the incidence of IH after robot-assisted RYGB (RA-RYGB) performed with the "Double Loop...

Feasibility and safety of robot-assisted bariatric conversions and revisions.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Conversions and revisions after bariatric procedures are inevitable and associated with longer operative time and higher complication rates. Because robot-assisted procedures allow better dissection, robotic conversions and revisions may ...

Predicting iron absorption from an effervescent iron supplement in obese patients before and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: a preliminary study.

Journal of trace elements in medicine and biology : organ of the Society for Minerals and Trace Elements (GMS)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Oral iron absorption is hampered in obese and bariatric patients, especially after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB). As a result, iron deficiency, which is common in both patient groups, can be difficult to treat by oral supplements...

Laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodenal-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADJB-SG): Surgical risk and long-term results.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Single-anastomosis duodeno-jejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADJB-SG) was developed as a simplified technique of DJB-SG, but long-term data are lacking.

Bile acids synthesis decreases after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment alternative in morbid obesity. The mechanisms contributing to these benefits remain poorly understood. Bile acids (BAs) are mediators of different regulatory functions in glucose and chole...

Robotically Assisted Single Anastomosis Duodenoileal Bypass after Previous Sleeve Gastrectomy Implementing High Valuable Technology for Complex Procedures.

Journal of obesity
Staged bariatric procedures in high risk patients are a common used strategy for morbid obese patients nowadays. After previous sleeve gastrectomy, surgical treatments in order to complete weight loss or comorbidities improvements or resolutions are ...

Hybrid laparoscopic-robotic management of type IVa choledochal cyst in the setting of prior Roux-en-Y gastric bypass: video case report and review of the literature.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Choledochal cysts are rare congenital disease of the biliary system. The recommended treatment of these lesions is surgical excision with biliary enteric reconstruction. In patients with normal anatomy, Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy is pr...

[Robot-assisted single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy].

Zhonghua wei chang wai ke za zhi = Chinese journal of gastrointestinal surgery
Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is simpler and has similar efficacy for obesity and obesity-associated metabolic diseases in comparison to biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch. We reported the first ...

The current role of robotics in bariatric surgery.

Minerva surgery
Significant improvements have been made in bariatric surgery for the past two decades. Thus, early and late complication rates decreased significantly. Thanks to its promising results, robotic surgery is finding increasing use in the field of surgery...

Bariatric surgery and hemodialysis: A case report of a patient with less 40 kilograms and without dialysis.

Saudi journal of kidney diseases and transplantation : an official publication of the Saudi Center for Organ Transplantation, Saudi Arabia
Obesity is an important risk factor for chronic kidney disease. Bariatric surgery (BS) may improve long-term kidney outcomes, but there is no agreement regarding the benefit and timing of BS in patients with end-stage renal disease. We present a 46-y...
