Long-Term Outcomes of Revisional Malabsorptive Bariatric Surgery: Do the Benefits Outweigh the Risk?

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the long-term outcomes of revisional malabsorptive bariatric surgery.

Materials and methods

Malabsorptive bariatric procedures are increasingly performed in the revisional setting. We collated and analysed prospectively recorded data for all patients who underwent a revisional Biliopancreatic diversion + / - duodenal switch (BPD + / - DS) over a 17-year period.

Results

We identified 102 patients who underwent a revisional BPD + / - DS. Median follow-up was 7 years (range 1-17). There were 21 (20.6%) patients permanently lost to follow-up at a median of 5 years postoperatively. Mean total weight loss since the revisional procedure of 22.7% (SD 13.4), 20.1% (SD 10.5) and 17.6% (SD 5.5) was recorded at 5, 10 and 15 years respectively. At the time of r
