The use of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is rapidly spreading. Concerns about biliary reflux and malabsorption with consequent nutritional deficits exist, so studies on biliopancreatic limb (BPL) adequate length in OAGB are required to balance excess weight loss in percentage (% EWL), resolution of comorbidities, and nutritional deficit. The purpose was to evaluate, at 2 years after OAGB, the effects of BPL length on weight loss, resolution of comorbidity, and nutritional deficiencies in patients.

Abstract

The use of one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) is rapidly spreading. Concerns about biliary reflux and malabsorption with consequent nutritional deficits exist, so studies on biliopancreatic limb (BPL) adequate length in OAGB are required to balance excess weight loss in percentage (% EWL), resolution of comorbidities, and nutritional deficit. The purpose was to evaluate, at 2 years after OAGB, the effects of BPL length on weight loss, resolution of comorbidity, and nutritional deficiencies in patients.
