Detailed description
Obesity is one of the most challenging chronic diseases in the western world as well as in Pakistan. Half of the people in this world consider themselves overweight or obese. Obesity is one of the most challenging chronic diseases in the western world as well as in Pakistan . Half of the people in this world consider themselves overweight or obese. Obesity is challenging to control by medical therapy and drug treatment. The most effective way to treat obesity is bariatric surgery. Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) is a gold standard bariatric surgical procedure. Recently there is much attention gained by laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). Therefore, we decided to conduct this comparative study to compare the early post-op complications of LSG with LRYGB technique in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
Interventions
We compared the 30 days outcomes in patients who underwent LSG procedure with those who underwent LRYGB
