Abstract
The number of bariatric operations is increasing each year. Sleeve gastrectomy is the most popular procedure; however, it often requires revision surgery because of insufficient weight loss, weight regain or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). The most popular revisional procedures are Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB). The primary outcome of this meta-analysis was weight loss after revisional surgery following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and the secondary outcomes were gastro-oesophageal reflux, BMI difference, operative time, bleeding and anastomotic leak.
