Abstract

: Referring to Fayad L et al. p. 227-230 and de Moura DTH et al. p. 202-210 The two most common operations are laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), representing 46 % and 38 % of operations, respectively 1. Another insightful trend gleaned from the published bariatric surgery registry data is that of revision bariatric operations, which have more than tripled since 2011, and currently represent 15.4 % of all bariatric operations in the United States.
