Feasibility of Small Bowel Length Shortening with Sleeve Gastrectomy for Metabolic and Nutritional Complications After RYGB

Key Points

• The study aims to assess the feasibility of small bowel length shortening with sleeve gastrectomy in patients facing complications after RYGB.
• Assessment of BOS-SG technique in selected patients
• Evaluation of physiological advantages related to gastric continuity and pyloric function
• Identification of metabolic and nutritional complications
• BOS-SG demonstrates feasibility in addressing post-RYGB complications
• Potential physiological advantages highlighted, although quantitative results are not provided
• Need for larger prospective studies to validate initial findings
