Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass Safer Than Open Procedure
Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery is safer and more cost-effective than open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, according to a large, retrospective study. Medscape Medical News
Study suggests laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery appears to be safer than open procedure
A study that examined national outcome differences between laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and open Roux-en-Y gastric bypass suggests that the minimally invasive laparoscopic procedure was assoc...
Gastric Bypass Safer with Less Invasive Surgery (CME/CE)
(MedPage Today) -- Obese patients had a significantly higher risk of mortality and complications with open versus laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery, a retrospective review of national data...
Laparoscopic gastric bypass safer: study
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Minimally-invasive weight loss surgery is safer than open surgery, with patients suffering fewer complications during those procedures, according to a new study of more...
Gastric bypass surgery helps diabetes but doesn't cure it, study suggests
After gastric bypass surgery, diabetes goes away for some people -- often even before they lose much weight. So does that mean gastric surgery "cures" diabetes? Not necessarily, according to the large...
Gastric bypass seems risky after failed gastric banding
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - Compared to primary gastric bypass surgery, rescue procedures after failed gastric banding have much higher risks of adverse outcomes.
