Laparoscopic gastric bypass versus laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding: a comparative study of 1,200 cases

L Biertho, R Steffen, T Ricklin, FF Horber… - Journal of the American …, 2003 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Indications for and results of laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding
(LAGB) and laparoscopic gastric bypass (LGB) are still controversial, especially between
Europe and the United States. The recent availability of gastric bandings in the United States
made it necessary to compare the two techniques. STUDY DESIGN: We compared a series
of 456 LGB to a series of 805 LAGB performed in two different institutions. Body mass index
(BMI), complication rate, mortality, and excess weight loss (EWL) after 3, 6, 12, and 18 …

We compared a series of 456 LGB to a scrics of 805 LAGB performed in rwo different
institutions. Body mass index (BMI), complication rate, mortality, and excess weight loss
(EWL) after 3, 6, 12, and 18 months were obtained. A Fischer's exact test and a Student t test
with covariance analysis werc used for statistical analysis. Results arc expressed as a mean:
standard deviation, comparing LGB with LAGB. Preopera-tive BMI was 494: 83 kg/m" versus
422: 4.9 kg/m"(p= 0.0001), respectively. Periop-erative major complication rates were 20 …
