Brief summary

Very few studies have compared robotic-assisted (RRBS) versus laparoscopic revisional bariatric surgeries (LRBS). To date, there has not been a prospective study comparing the perioperative outcomes of patients undergoing robotic-assisted and laparoscopic revisional bariatric surgery. This study aims to enroll patients undergoing RRBS and LRBS and evaluate the outcomes through 45 days, including the perioperative period. We hypothesize that RRBS may be associated with lower rates of perioperative outcomes.
