BACKGROUND: The literature reports that the learning curve for laparoscopic Roux-en-Y
gastric bypass (LRYGBP) is approximately 75–100 cases. This aim of the present study was
to evaluate the safety and feasibility of shortening the learning curve for performing LRYGBP
by an experienced laparoscopic surgeon. METHODS: This study analyzed retrospectively
the first 100 consecutive LRYGBP cases performed by an experienced laparoscopic
surgeon between April 2003 and September 2003. The surgeon performed these cases …
