Obstetric outcome following laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding

Abstract: Among obese women, the incidence of adverse obstetric outcomes was less in those who underwent LABG than in those who did not. These results suggest that obese women who wish to become pregnant would decrease their risk of obstetric complications if they first underwent LAGB.

“…The 6 studies included in this section found either no difference or an increased risk of SGA neonates among bariatric surgery patients [13,15,[19][20][21]23] while our data suggests an increased risk of SGA among the bariatric surgery woman as compared to the controls. However, this is potentially due to the same reasons as listed above for IUGR.…”

“…Wax et al also found that birth weights were similar among women delivering after gastric bypass compared to women delivering without prior bariatric surgery (13). In a study from France low birth weight occurred even less often among women who underwent LABG but that was in comparison with obese women (15). One reason for contradicting results could be different compositions of the reference group.…”
