Gender Influence on Long-Term Weight Loss and Comorbidities After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: a Prospective Study With a 5-Year Follow-up

Abstract: LSG was more effective in obese male than in female patients in terms of %EBMIL, with no difference in comorbidities. LRYGB elicited similar results in both genders in terms of %EBMIL and comorbidities.

“…Comparable outcomes in terms of weight loss over a 5-year period were reported at the 3 rd International Summit of Sleeve Gastrectomy[3], with a mean percentage of excess weight loss of 62.7%, 64.7%, 64.0%, 57.3%, and 60.0% after 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years, respectively. These data are all consistent with other studies published to date[16,25-38] (Table 4). LSG outcomes are comparable to the gold standard procedure in bariatric surgery, the RYGB[6], thus supporting the role of LSG as a stand-alone bariatric operation for morbid obesity.…”

“…A previous study observed that obese female patients had higher body fat and lower muscle percentages than males [ 24 ]. Additionally, several studies have tested for gender differences in weight and fat loss after bariatric surgery [ 25 , 26 ]. One study found no significant differences in the BMIs of males and females after bariatric surgery, although male patients continued to weigh significantly more than females and lost significantly more pounds than did females after bariatric surgery [ 25 ].…”

“…Perrone et al described better outcomes in terms of %EB-MIL in males than in females after LSG in 5-year follow-up, which is opposite to our results. However, we observed our patients for a shorter time and the male group had a higher BMI preoperatively [7]. Study conducted by Binda et al showed that lower age and preoperative weight loss are conducive to achieving higher %EWL, but no differences between genders have been found to be essential for the results [8].…”
