Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term Results of Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy for Obesity
TL;DR: It appears that after 6+ years the mean excess weight loss exceeds 50%.
Journal ArticleDOI

Luigi Angrisani,Antonella Santonicola,Paola Iovino,Antonio Vitiello,Kelvin Higa,Jacques Himpens,Henry Buchwald,Nicola Scopinaro +7 more
TL;DR: There was an increase in the total number both of surgical and endoluminal bariatric/metabolic procedures performed worldwide in 2016 and the surgical trends from 2008 to 2016.
Journal ArticleDOI
A prospective randomized study between laparoscopic gastric banding and laparoscopic isolated sleeve gastrectomy: results after 1 and 3 years.
TL;DR: Weight loss and loss of feeling of hunger after 1 year and 3 years are better after SG than GB and GERD is more frequent at 1 year after SG and at 3 years after GB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feasibility of robotic laparoscopic surgery: 146 cases.
Guy-Bernard Cadière,Jacques Himpens,Olivier Germay,Rachel Izizaw,Michel Degueldre,Jean Vandromme,Elie Capelluto,Jean Andre Bruyns +7 more
TL;DR: This study has demonstrated the feasibility of several laparoscopic robotic procedures using the Da Vinci system and seems most beneficial in intra-abdominal microsurgery or for manipulations in a very small space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jacques Himpens,Guy-Bernard Cadière,Michel Bazi,Michael Vouche,Benjamin Cadiere,Giovanni Dapri +5 more
TL;DR: Based on a follow-up of 54.3% of patients, LAGB appears to result in a mean excess weight loss of 42.8% after 12 years or longer, which is relatively poor long-term outcomes.
