RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for morbid obesity. The present study aimed to assess three bariatric procedures with different mechanisms of actions; sleeve gastrectomy (SG), one-anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass, in terms of efficacy and safety. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study on patients with morbid obesity who underwent SG, OAGB, or SASI bypass. The main outcome measures were weight loss and improvement in comorbidities at 6 and 12 months postoperatively, and complications. RESULTS: A total of 264 patients (186 female) with mean preoperative body mass index (BMI) of 43.6 ± 9.9 kg/m2were included to the study. Significant weight loss was recorded at 6 and 12 months after the three procedures. At 6 and 12 months postoperatively, body weight and BMI were significantly lower after SASI bypass than after SG and OAGB. The %total weight loss (%TWL) and %excess weight loss (%EWL) were significantly higher after SASI bypass than after SG and OAGB. SASI bypass was associated with a significantly higher rate of improvement in DM than SG and OAGB (97.7% vs 71.4% vs 86.7%; p = 0.04) whereas improvement in other comorbidities was similar. The short-term complication rate was similar between the three procedures, yet SASI bypass was followed by higher long-term complication rate. CONCLUSION: Based on retrospective review of data, SASI bypass was associated with more reduction in body weight and BMI, higher %TWL and %EWL, better improvement in T2DM, and more long-term nutritional complications than SG and OAGB.

BACKGROUND: Single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass is a newly introduced bariatric and metabolic procedure. The present multicenter study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of the SASI bypass in the treatment of patients with morbid obesity and the metabolic syndrome. METHODS: This is a retrospective, seven-country, multicenter study on patients with morbid obesity who underwent the SASI bypass. Data regarding patients' demographics, body mass index (BMI), percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), and improvement in comorbidities at 12 months postoperatively and postoperative complications were collected. RESULTS: Among 605 patients who underwent the SASI, 54 were excluded and 551 (390; 70.8% female) were included. At 12 months after the SASI, a significant decrease in the BMI was observed (43.2 ± 12.5 to 31.2 ± 9.7 kg/m2; p < 0.0001). The %TWL was 27.4 ± 13.4 and the %EWL was 63.9 ± 29.5. Among the 279 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), complete remission was recorded in 234 (83.9%) patients and partial improvement in 43 (15.4%) patients. Eighty-six (36.1%) patients with hypertension, 104 (65%) patients with hyperlipidemia, 37 (57.8%) patients with sleep apnea, and 70 (92.1%) patients with GERD achieved remission. Fifty-six (10.1%) complications and 2 (0.3%) mortalities were recorded. Most complications were minor. All patients had 12 months follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: The SASI bypass is an effective bariatric and metabolic surgery that achieved satisfactory weight loss and improvement in medical comorbidities, including T2DM, hypertension, sleep apnea, and GERD, with a low complication rate.
