Conversion of Adjustable Gastric Banding to Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass in One or ...
Pujol-Rafols, J; Abbas, A; Devriendt, S; Guerra, A; Herrera, M; Himpens, J; Pardina, E; Pouwels, S; Ramos, A; Ribeiro, R; Safadi, B; Sanchez-Aguilar, HBackground: Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) is often the preferred conversion procedure for laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) poor responders. However, there is controversy whether it is better to convert in one or two stages. This study aims to compare the outcomes of one and two-stage conversions of LAGB to RYGB. Methods: Retrospective review of a multicenter prospectively collected database. Dat...
