“…It provides good results in term of weight loss (EWL 65-75%), and good QOL with a relatively small risk of side effects. The incidence of gallstones following such a procedure varies from 6,7 to 52,8% [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28], becoming symptomatic in a percentage ranging from 3% to 8% when no prophylaxis with UDCA is established [29][30][31][32]. Following the early experiences with prophylactic cholecistectomies performed routinely at the moment of the primary bariatric procedure (with or without evidence of specific pathology) the incidence of pathologic specimens was between 75% and 82% [33][34][35][36].…”
