The incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is raising with significant associated medical complications and mortality. Bariatric surgery has shown to have beneficial metabolic effects. A model of single anastomosis duodenojejunal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADJB-SG) was developed in a T2DM animal model without obesity, Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats, to evaluate the effect of the procedure on glucose homeostasis.

Fourteen 12-week old GK rats underwent SADJB-SG, while 11 underwent simulated surgery (Sham). Weight and food intake were recorded comprehensively until sacrifice. Fasting blood glucose data, as well as insulin, fructosamine, and albumin levels were measured both pre-surgically and just before sacrifice. Glucose homeostasis was also monitored by oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at different time points. A radiographic study was performed to assess the effect of surgery on gastric emptying.

Mortality rate was 24% in the SADJB-SG and 4% in Sham rats. Despite similar food intake, the SADJB-SG showed significant weight loss coupled to a decrease in albumin levels. Glucose homeostasis improved in SADJB-SG rats after surgery, reflected in decreased blood glucose, fructosamine levels, and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR). OGTT tests, conducted both post-surgery and at follow-up, demonstrated an improvement in glucose metabolism 120 min after glucose administration. However, a peak in glycemia was observed at 30 min, which negatively affected the expected AUC results. Gastric emptying was accelerated in the SADJB-SG, which could contribute to explain the observed glycemia increment, through fast glucose jejunal uptake.

SADJB-SG surgery improved glucose homeostasis in GK rats.

Obesity is a growing public health challenge due to its high prevalence and associated comorbidities. Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for achieving sustained weight reduction when more conservative treatments have failed. This study evaluates the impact of a nurse-led telecare follow-up programme in the immediate postoperative period for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.

A quasi-experimental study was carried out in two hospitals in southern Spain. We included 161 patients who met the inclusion criteria: a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 40 kg/m2 or a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 with associated comorbidities, and the failure of non-surgical treatments. Patients were divided into two groups: the intervention group (IG), which received follow-up telephone calls from a specialised nurse during the first 30 days post-surgery, and the control group (CG), which received standard care. The nurse, who was available 24 h a day, answered questions and dealt with queries over the phone or referred patients to the emergency department if necessary. Several variables were recorded, including the number of telephone consultations, reasons for consultation, number of emergency visits, readmissions, and surgical reinterventions.

The IG showed a significant reduction in ED visits (4.9% vs. 30% in CG), and consultations were mainly related to diet and drainage. The nurse telecare intervention significantly improved postoperative recovery by reducing complications and optimising the safety and quality of postoperative care. These results reinforce the importance of personalised follow-up in improving clinical outcomes in bariatric patients.

Introduction Bariatric surgery is increasingly employed to address the global burden of morbid obesity, with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) representing the predominant procedure. However, some patients, particularly those with extreme obesity (BMI >50 kg/m²), may experience unsatisfactory weight-related outcomes following RYGB. While biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) offers superior weight reduction for this population, its complexity and associated risks limit its widespread use. Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) was developed as a simpler substitue to BPD-DS, aiming to gain equivalent weight loss with improved safety profile. This analysis examined the efficacy of SADI-S in facilitating weight loss and ameliorating concomitant conditions (type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and obstructive sleep apnea) at various time points up to nine years post-procedure. Additionally, the study assessed the incidence of nutritional deficiencies following SADI-S. Material and methods This retrospective analysis utilized data obtained from patients undergoing SADI-S at a high-volume specialized bariatric centre between January 2016 and December 2022. Inclusion criteria encompassed individuals with high BMI and uncontrolled obesity-related comorbidities who had experienced insufficient weight-related outcomes following a previous bariatric surgery and demonstrated good compliance within a Tier 3 weight management program. Patients were excluded if they were non-compliant, unfit for surgery, or under 18 years old. Participants were followed up quarterly in the first year, every four months in the second year, and yearly thereafter. Nutritional assessments were performed in accordance with British Obesity and Metabolic Surgery Society (BOMSS) guidelines. Relevant data were extracted from patient clinical records and institutional electronic databases and analyzed using Microsoft Excel. Results There were 4000+ bariatric procedures conducted during this time. Seventeen patients were deemed as suitable candidates for SADI-S after multidisciplinary team discussion. The surgeries were performed by various surgeons. Most participants were women, with an age range of 23 to 64 years. The median BMI was 63.4 kg/m² (range: 35 kg/m² to 96.2 kg/m²). Mean percentage excess weight loss (%EWL) was 32% (range: 15% to 53%) at six months, 69.6% (range: 34% to 90%) at one year, and 86.2% (range: 43% to 109%) at two years post-procedure. Extended follow-up data (six to nine years) were available for 16 patients, with one patient lost to subsequent assessments. At this stage, the mean %EWL was 76% (range: 62% to 96%). No patients developed protein-energy malnutrition. However, micronutrient deficiencies were observed, with four patients (23.53%) exhibiting zinc deficiency and three (17.65%) presenting with calcium deficiency. All deficiencies were successfully managed with oral supplementation. Conclusion SADI-S effectively achieves substantial and sustained weight loss with high comorbidity resolution in individuals with high BMI. While micronutrient deficiencies require proactive management, SADI-S appears safe and yields favourable outcomes comparable to, or exceeding, those reported in larger studies. Long-term weight maintenance is promising. This study contributes valuable real-world evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of SADI-S, though larger studies are needed for further validation.

The single anastomosis duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy/single anastomosis duodenal switch (SADI-S/SADS) has gained attention as an alternative to the traditional biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS). In 2021, IFSO endorsed SADI-S/SADS as a safe and effective procedure, underscoring the necessity for long-term multidisciplinary care and randomized controlled trials (RCTs). A task force was established to conduct a systematic review of current evidence on SADI-S/SADS to guide clinical practice. A systematic review was conducted across three databases, focusing on studies examining SADI-S/SADS and its outcomes. A total of 93 studies were analyzed. SADI-S/SADS demonstrated efficacy in weight loss and medium-to-long-term control of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), along with positive outcomes regarding hypertension and hyperlipidemia. However, its impact on other comorbidities remains inconclusive. Frequent nutritional deficiencies were identified, particularly in fat-soluble vitamins, anemia, and hypoalbuminemia. Despite significant efforts, high-quality evidence on SADI-S/SADS remains scarce, prompting IFSO to advocate for increased registry participation, publication of long-term studies, and more RCTs. Lifelong supplementation and monitoring for nutritional deficiencies are recommended. The current position statement will be reviewed in 2 years.

The partial diversion of intestinal contents facilitates achieving and maintaining weight loss and improving glycemic control in patients with obesity and with or without T2DM. The purpose of this study is to report our experience and 1-year follow-up with novel modification of SADI-S.

This study is a part of a multicentric trial of patients that underwent primary side-to-side duodeno-ileostomy and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) with GT metabolic solutions magnetic anastomosis system. Feasibility, safety, and initial efficacy were evaluated.

The mean age of the patients included was 48 ± 8.75 years and the preoperative BMI was 43.32 ± 2.82 kg/m2. The complications were present in 30% of patients. The anastomosis patency was confirmed by the passage of radiological contrast under fluoroscopy at a mean of 17 days (17-29 days), and the mean expulsion time was 42 days (32-62). The mean diameter of the anastomosis after the magnet expulsion was 13.8 × 11.4 mm. The percentage of total weight lost at 1 year was 38.68 ± 8.48% (p < 0.001). The percentage of excess weight loss 82.5 ± 18.44% (p < 0.001) and improvements in glucose profiles were observed. Mean baseline HbA1c 5.77 ± 0.31% was reduced to 5.31 ± 0.26% (p < 0.024).

Latero-lateral duodeno-ileostomy + SG with magnetic duodenal bipartition is afeasible and reasonably safe technique and induces weight loss in patients with obesity and improvement of glycemic control. This modification could be considered as an option to standard SADI-S or as a first step in two stages procedure. However, larger studies are needed.

With drastic variations in bariatric practices, consensus is lacking on an optimal approach for revisional bariatric surgeries.

The authors reviewed and consolidated bariatric surgery literature to provide specific revision suggestions based on each index surgery, including adjustable gastric band (AGB), sleeve gastrectomy (SG), Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS), single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve (SADI-S), one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), and vertical banded gastroplasty (VBG).

AGB has the highest weight recurrence rate and can be converted to RYGB, SG, and BPD-DS. After index SG, common surgical options include a resleeve or RYGB. The RYGB roux limb can be distalized and pouch resized in context of reflux, and the entire anatomy can be revised into BPD-DS. Data analyzing revisional surgery after a single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve was limited. In patients with one anastomosis gastric bypass and vertical banded gastroplasty anatomy, most revisions were the conversion to RYGB.

As revisional bariatric surgery becomes more common, the best approach depends on the patient's indication for surgery and preexisting anatomy.

Bariatric and metabolic surgery often leads to significant changes in gut microbiota composition, indicating that changes in gut microbiota after bariatric and metabolic surgery might play a role in ameliorating type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, the effects of single-anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) on gut microbiota in T2D remain unclear.

To investigate the effects of SADI-S on gut microbiota and glucose metabolism in T2D rats.

Nineteen T2D rats were randomly divided into the SADI-S group (n = 10) and the sham operation with pair-feeding group (sham-PF, n = 9). Fecal samples were collected to analyze the gut microbiota composition with 16S ribosomal DNA gene sequencing. The fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin were measured to evaluate the effects of SADI-S on glucose metabolism.

The Chao and ACE index results indicated the richness of the gut microbial community. The ACE and Chao index values were significantly lower in the SADI-S group than in the sham-PF group, indicating that indicating that species richness was significantly lower in the SADI-S group than in the sham-PF group (p < 0.05). Shannon and Simpson indices were used to estimate the species diversity of the gut microbiota. Compared with the sham-PF group, the SADI-S group showed significantly lower Shannon index and higher Simpson index values, indicating that the species diversity was significantly lower in the SADI-S group than in the sham-PF group (p < 0.05). At the genus level, SADI-S significantly changed the abundances of 33 bacteria, including the increased anti-inflammatory bacteria (Akkermansia and Bifidobacterium) and decreased pro-inflammatory bacteria (Bacteroides). SADI-S significantly decreased the fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin levels. The blood glucose level of rats was positively correlated with the relative abundances of 12 bacteria, including Bacteroides, and negatively correlated with the relative abundances of seven bacteria, including Bifidobacterium.

SADI-S significantly altered the gut microbiota composition of T2D rats, including the increased anti-inflammatory bacteria (Akkermansia and Bifidobacterium) and decreased pro-inflammatory bacteria (Bacteroides). The blood glucose level of rats was positively correlated with the abundances of 12 bacteria, including Bacteroides, but negatively correlated with the relative abundance of 7 bacteria, including Bifidobacterium. These alternations in gut microbiota may be the mechanism through which SADI-S improved T2D. More studies should be performed in the future to validate these effects.

Blunt abdominal trauma patients who have had prior bariatric procedures may present a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. The single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve (SADI-S) is a modified duodenal switch procedure that is relatively uncommon. This case report describes a patient who previously underwent a SADI-S for the management of obesity and subsequently sustained a seat belt injury in a motor vehicle collision resulting in a laceration of the efferent loop. The patient presented with symptoms of acute abdominal pain and was diagnosed through imaging studies. Prompt surgical intervention was performed with resection and primary anastomosis of the damaged section of the jejunum, and repair of a large mesenteric laceration. We discuss the importance of early recognition and intraoperative decision-making in the case of this patient concerning her SADI-S.

To evaluate the efficacy and nutrition of single-anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) in Chinese obese patients in the first postoperative year. Clinical data of 66 obese patients who underwent SADI-S surgery at China-Japan Union Hospital of Jilin University from November 2018 to May 2022 were retrospectively collected. The weight, body mass index (BMI), percentage of excess weight loss (%EWL), and percentage of total weight loss (%TWL) were recorded at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Moreover, metabolic disease remission and nutrient deficiencies were assessed at 1 year postoperatively. Overall, 66 patients (38 males and 28 females) were recruited, with a mean age of 35 (18-61) years and an average preoperative BMI of 42.94 kg/m2. Before surgery, 38 patients had type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), 46 patients had hyperuricemia (HUA), 45 patients had hypertension (HTN), 35 patients had hyperlipidemia, 12 patients had hypercholesterolemia, 12 patients had hyper-low-density lipoproteinemia, and 14 patients had gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms (GERD). All patients had undergone a DaVinci robotic or laparoscopic SADI-S surgery, and none converted to laparotomy or died. Four patients developed postoperative complications and were cured and discharged after conservative treatment or surgical treatment. At 3, 6 and 12 months, the average %EWL was 62.07 ± 26.56, 85.93 ± 27.92, and 106.65 ± 29.65%, %TWL was 22.67 ± 4.94, 32.10 ± 5.18, and 40.56 ± 7.89%, respectively. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), uric acid (UA), triglycerides (TG), blood pressure (BP), and other indexes were significantly lower after one year post-surgery compared with the preoperative period (P < 0.05). The remission rates of T2DM, HUA, HTN, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyper-low-density lipoproteinemia 1 year after surgery were 100, 65.2, 62.2, 94.3, 100, and100%, respectively. One year after surgery, the remission rate of GERD was 71.4% (10/14), the rate of new occurrence of GERD was 12.1% (8/66), and the overall incidence rate was 18.2% (12/66). Except for vitamin B12(vit B12), the other nutrient indexes were significantly decreased after 1 year of surgery relative to levels before surgery (P < 0.05). The deficiency rates for vitamin A (vit A), vitamin E (vit E), zinc ion (Zn), and folic acid (FA) were higher (45.5, 25.8, 24.2, and 16.7%, respectively); however, there were no related clinical symptoms. SADI-S had significant effects on weight loss and metabolic disease remission. The main nutrient deficiencies after SADI-S were vit A, vit E, Zn, and FA deficiencies. The long-term efficacy and safety of SADI-S warrant further follow-up.

Single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve (SADI-S) is a recently endorsed metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) procedure in the US. Despite its favorable characteristics, the utilization of SADI-S remains limited, accounting for a mere 0.25% of all MBS procedures performed. This review aims to offer an updated examination of the technique, while also presenting the safety and outcomes associated with SADI-S on both the short and long term.

The safety of SADI-S is well-established, with short-term complication rates as low as 2.6%. A common channel length of 300 cm has consistently shown a lower incidence of malabsorption complications compared to shorter lengths. Bile reflux after SADI-S is relatively rare with an incidence of only 1.23%. SADI-S demonstrated sustained total weight loss (%TWL) at 5 years (37%) and 10 years (34%) postoperatively. Resolution of weight-related medical conditions was also significant after SADI-S, with remission rates of diabetes mellitus as high as 86.6% with over 5 years of follow-up. SADI-S is a safe and effective MBS procedure that has shown impressive and sustainable results in terms of weight loss and improvement in obesity-related medical conditions. Careful limb length selection is essential in minimizing the risk of nutritional deficiencies. SADI-S holds great promise as a valuable option for individuals seeking effective weight loss and improvement in associated health conditions.

Single anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a predominantly malabsorptive technique that has shown excellent results in morbid obese patients. The aim of this study is to establish a rodent model modifying the SADI-S technique by performing a proximal duodenojejunal anastomosis. This model can be useful for the study of glucose metabolism without malabsorption observed after the SADI-S technique.

Goto-Kakizaki rats, a genetic model of non-obese and non-hypertensive type 2 diabetes mellitus, that develop hyperglycemia at an early age was used. Surgery consisted in a sleeve gastrectomy, duodenojejunal anastomosis and duodenal exclusion using three different techniques: duodenal transection (DT), duodenal ligation with hem-o-lock (DLH), and duodenal ligation with suture (DLS). Surgery time, weight loss, morbidity and mortality were recorded.

A total of 16 animals were subjected to surgical intervention and overall mortality was 25 %, with the DT group showing the highest mortality rate (42.9 %). No differences were observed among groups in terms of weight loss.

The surgical technique described in this work is feasible and reproducible. Weight loss is comparable regardless of the technique used for duodenal exclusion.

This systematic review of 10 studies aimed to investigate the mid- and long-term results of duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) according to the PRISMA guideline. Related articles, which reported outcomes of laparoscopic SADI-S with follow-up ≥ 3 years, were selected and analyzed. The percentage of excess weight loss (EWL) was 70.9-88.7%, and 80.4% at 6, and 10 years, respectively. The more common late complications were malabsorption (6.3%) and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (3.6%). The remission rates of hypertension, diabetes, GERD, obstructive sleep apnea, and dyslipidemia were 62.9%, 81.3%, 53.2%, 60.9%, and 69.7%, respectively. In conclusion, SADI-S is a safe and effective surgical technique with durable weight loss and a high rate of comorbidity resolution in mid and long term.

The literature on long-term outcomes of duodenal switch (DS) compared to single anastomosis duodenal switch (SADI-S) procedures is lacking. We evaluated the long-term outcomes of SADI-S compared to those after the classic DS procedure.

This is a follow-up report from a single-institution prospective cohort study comparing long-term outcomes of SADI-S versus DS both as one- and two-stage procedures (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02792166). Data is depicted as count (percentage) or median (interquartile range).

Forty-two patients underwent SADI-S, of whom 11 had it as a second-stage procedure (26%). Of 20 patients who underwent DS, twelve had it as a second-stage procedure (60%). Both groups were similar at baseline. Median follow-up times for one-stage SADI-S and DS were 57 (24) and 57 (9) months, respectively (p = 0.93). Similar BMI reductions were observed after one-stage SADI-S (16.5 kg/m2 [8.5]) and DS (18.9 kg/m2 [7.2]; p = 0.42). At median follow-up of 51 (21) and 60 (15) months after second-stage SADI-S and DS, respectively (p = 0.60), surgical procedures yielded reductions in BMI of 20.5 kg/m2 (14.0) and 24.0 kg/m2 (13.9), respectively (p = 0.52). Follow-up rates were similar for one-stage (≥ 88%; p = 0.29) and second-stage procedures (≥ 83%; p = 0.16). Similar diabetes and hypertension remissions were found (p = 0.77; P = 0.54, respectively). Despite fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies at baseline, after supplementation, they were either eliminated or less prevalent long-term after SADI-S. Daily bowel movements were also less frequent.

Long-term weight and comorbidity outcomes after SADI-S are similar to those of DS both as one- and two-stage surgeries. SADI-S procedure may allow for similar beneficial outcomes with less burden from gastrointestinal symptoms and fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies.

The role of the common channel length in duodenal switch (DS) on remission of type II diabetes mellitus (DM), when stratifying patients based on diabetes severity, is not well understood.

We retrospectively reviewed 341 consecutive patients with DM undergoing DS with one of three different common channel (CC) lengths (100 cm, 150 cm, and 200 cm), each with a fixed 300 cm alimentary limb (AL). Patients were stratified by insulin dependence (IDDM) versus non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM). Data was collected at one year and at the last available follow-up.

The NIDDM group had a similar average HbA1c at last follow-up for each of the CC lengths. However, the IDDM group had lower average HbA1c with shorter CC lengths (100 cm = 5.4%, 150 cm = 6%, 200 cm = 6.4%, p < 0.05). Shorter CC lengths resulted in a greater proportion of patients achieving remission in the IDDM group (66%, 50%, 32% in the 100 cm, 150 cm, and 200 cm CC, respectively, p < 0.01). Improvements in HbA1c were independent of weight loss and average DiaRem scores were similar between CC lengths. Rates of nutritional deficiencies were higher in shorter common channel lengths. Revision for malnutrition was similar between common channel lengths (100 cm group: 3.7%; 150 cm group: 1.8%; 200 cm group: 0%, p = NS).

When the AL is fixed, shortening CC lengths results in improved glycemic control and remission of DM in patients with the need for insulin preoperatively. Milder forms of DM are treated well with any of the CC lengths.

This Brazilian multi-society position statement on emerging bariatric and metabolic surgical procedures was issued by the Brazilian Society of Bariatric and Metabolic Surgery (SBCBM), the Brazilian College of Digestive Surgery (CBCD), and the Brazilian College of Surgeons (CBC). This document is the result of a Brazilian Emerging Surgeries Forum aimed at evaluating the results of surgeries that are not yet listed in the Federal Council of Medicine (CFM), the regulatory agency that oversees and regulates medical practice in Brazil. The Forum integrated more than 400 specialists and academics with extensive knowledge about bariatric and metabolic surgery, representing the three surgical societies: SBCBM, CBC, and CBCD. International speakers participated online and presented their experiences with the techniques under discussion, emphasizing the regulatory policies in their countries. The indications for surgery and the subsequent procedures were carefully reviewed, including one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), single anastomosis duodeno-ileal with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S or OADS), sleeve gastrectomy with transit bipartition (SGTB), and sleeve gastrectomy with ileal interposition (SGII). The recommendations of this document are based on an extensive literature review and discussions among bariatric surgery specialists from the three surgical societies. We concluded that patients with a body mass index over 30 kg/m2 may be candidates for metabolic surgery in the presence of comorbidities (arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes) with no response to clinical treatment of obesity or in the control of other associated diseases. Regarding the surgical procedures, we concluded that OAGB, OADS, and SGTB are associated with low morbidity rates, satisfactory weight loss, and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities such as diabetes and arterial hypertension. SGII was considered a good and viable promising surgical alternative technique. The recommendations of this statement aim to synchronize our societies with the sentiments and understandings of most of our members and also serve as a guide for future decisions regarding bariatric surgical procedures in our country and worldwide.

Bariatric surgery has demonstrated long-term effectiveness in inducing weight loss and improving metabolic parameters for obesity. Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal (SADI) bypass and single anastomosis sleeve-ileal (SASI) bypass have both emerged as new promising bariatric procedures. In this paper, we review the existing literature and compare the outcomes of SADI and SASI bypass procedures in regard to weight loss, complication rate, and improvement of type II diabetes (T2DM). This has not yet been done in the preexisting literature.

We conducted a systematic literature search of electronic databases focusing on weight loss outcomes, rate of complications and remission, or improvement of T2DM and other obesity-related comorbidities. Seventeen studies on SADI and nine studies on SASI were included. Both are similar in terms of surgical technique and have demonstrated fewer complications when compared to other bariatric procedures. Mean preoperative BMI was similar in both study groups: 46.4 kg/m2 in SADI and 48.8 kg/m2 in SASI. Mean %EWL at 12 months in the SADI group was 74.1% compared to 77.4% in the SASI group. Preoperative severity of T2DM appeared to be higher in the SASI patient group, with a higher preoperative HbA1c and fasting blood glucose levels. T2DM resolution was achieved in a significant proportion of both SADI and SASI patient populations (78.5% in SADI and 89.0% in SASI). Complication rates were comparable for both procedures.

Both SADI and SASI are effective in inducing weight loss at 12 months, with a low rate of major complications and mortality. From the studies included in this review, the SASI procedure had a higher impact on T2DM resolution compared to SADI.

The global prevalence of obesity has increased over the past 40 years, and bariatric surgery has proven to be the most effective therapy for long-term weight loss. Its principles are based on modifying the brain-gut axis by altering the gastrointestinal anatomy and affecting the function of gastrointestinal hormones, thereby modifying satiety signals. Single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) combines both techniques and has become an alternative to gastric bypass and biliopancreatic diversion procedures for treating severe obesity and associated metabolic diseases in selected patients.

To describe the outcomes and complications of SADI-S.

We retrospectively analyzed the data of patients who underwent SADI-S laparoscopically at the Clínica Reina Sofía in Bogotá, Colombia. This study assessed the therapeutic effectiveness of SADI-S in terms of short-term preoperative clinical characteristics, postoperative complications, comorbidities, nutritional defi-ciencies, and intraoperative complications during a 2-year follow-up.

Sixty-one patients with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 50 ± 7.1 kg/m2 underwent laparoscopic SADI-S. The mean operative time and hospital stays were 143.8 ± 42 min and 2.3 ± 0.8 d, respectively. The mean follow-up period was 18 mo, and the mean BMI decreased to 28.5 ± 12.2 kg/m2. The excess BMI loss was 41.8% ± 13.5%, and the weight loss percentage was 81.1% ± 17.0%. Resolution of obesity-related comorbidities, including type 2 diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obstructive sleep apnea, was achieved and defined as complete or partial remission. No intraoperative complications were observed. Short-term complications were observed in four (6.8%) patients. However, larger studies with longer follow-up periods are required to draw definitive conclusions.

SADI-S has a low intraoperative and postoperative complication rate and is effective for weight loss and improving obesity-related comorbidities, including hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and sleep apnea syndrome.

Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a safe and effective technique with good short- and mid-term weight control and associated medical problems remission for patients with a body mass index (BMI) > 45 kg/m². The aim of this study was to analyze patient-reported symptoms, specifically symptomatic gastroesophageal reflux disease symptoms (GERD), depositional habit, and quality of life (QOL) following SADI-S, using telemedicine and validated tests.

A prospective unicentric cross-sectional study was conducted including all patients submitted to SADI-S in the University Hospital of Bellvitge from May 2014 to September 2019. A baseline control group was composed of 67 patients who were planning to undergo SADI-S in the following 4 months. Patients were divided into four groups: pre-SADIS, < 2 years, 2-3 years, and > 3 years after surgery. The information gathered via a telematic questionnaire was analyzed and compared with its presence in patients' clinical history derived from the last presential visit.

The response rate to telematic tests was 86.9%. The mean BMI exhibited significant differences depending on the moment of evaluation: 50.8 kg/m², 30.0 kg/m², 31.1 kg/m², and 32.7 kg/m² at pre-SADIS, < 2, 2-3, and > 3 years follow-up, respectively (p < 0.001). The proportion of GERD symptoms increased over time (17.9%, 18.8%, 26.9%, and 30.2%, p = 0.320). After SADIS, the percentage of patients with loose stools was progressively higher (17.4% vs 25.4% vs 30.2%, p = 0.04). Patients with < 2-year follow-up presented an improvement in both physical component (PCS) and mental component (MCS) summaries compared to the baseline group (PCS = 51.3, and MCS = 49.4). The mean BMI of patients with PCS ≥ 50 was 31.9 kg/m², compared with 41.7 kg/m² in the PCS < 50 group (p < 0.001). In the MCS ≥ 50 group, there were more patients with a BMI < 35 kg/m² than the MCS < 50 group (66.7% vs 48.7%, p = 0.004). Telematic follow-up offered a more systemic and detailed information: in the last presential visit only, 13.9% of patients had complete data regarding weight evolution, remission of associated medical problems, GERD symptoms, and depositional habit in comparison with the 82.9% of patients with telematic follow-up (p < 0.001).

Weight control is the main factor related to long-term QOL after SADI-S. The incidence of GERD symptoms and diarrhea was up to 30% in patients with > 3-year follow-up. Monitoring postoperative patient-related symptoms with validated objective tests seems a feasible and useful resource for the long-term follow-up of patients submitted to SADI-S.

Nutritional deficiencies following malabsorptive surgeries are a major concern.

To present clinical-based, mid-term nutritional outcomes in single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) patients using a nutritional supplement based on the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS) guidelines.

Single private institute, Australia.

Data from 196 patients who underwent a primary SADI-S by a single surgeon from January 2017 through March 2022 were retrospectively analysed. All patients received either original or altered formulated nutritional supplementation throughout the study. In total, three formulae, slightly different from each other, were used at three different time points to formulate the supplement.

In total, 196 patients were included. The average age and preoperative body mass index were 44.9 ± 6.7 years and 43.6 ± 22.5 kg/m², respectively. Nutritional follow-up was available on 77.5%, 73.2%, 73.4%, and 59.7% of patients at 12, 24, 36, and 48 months, respectively. At baseline, 48.3%, 30%, 14.9%, 13.3%, 12.4%, 3.8%, 2.3%, and 0.5% of the patients had vitamin D, calcium, folic acid, total protein, iron, vitamin B12, copper, and vitamin A deficiencies, respectively. Postoperatively, mild to moderate vitamin deficiencies were noted in 14.2% of the patients in the first 18 months; however, at 4 years, the cohort had zero nutritional deficiencies. There were no long-term complications, revisions/conversions, or mortalities related to nutritional deficiencies.

Factors, like preoperative and postoperative early, aggressive correction of nutritional deficiencies, regular laboratory monitoring and follow-ups with the multidisciplinary team, and adherence to our formulated nutritional supplement, have contributed to favourable nutritional outcomes at 4 years.

Single Anastomosis Duodenal-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S), like other hypoabsorptive procedures, could be burdened by long-term nutritional deficiencies such as malnutrition, anemia, hypocalcemia, and hyperparathyroidism.

We aimed to report our experience in terms of mid-term (2 years) bariatric, nutritional, and metabolic results in patients who underwent SADI-S both as a primary or revisional procedure.

One hundred twenty-one patients were scheduled for SADI-S as a primary or revisional procedure from July 2016 to February 2020 and completed at least 2 years of follow-up. Demographic features, bariatric, nutritional, and metabolic results were analyzed during a stepped follow-up at 3 months, 6 months, 1 year and 2 years.

Sixty-six patients (47 female and 19 male) were included. The median preoperative BMI was 53 (48-58) kg/m². Comorbidities were reported in 48 (72.7%) patients. At 2 years, patients had a median BMI of 27 (27-31) kg/m² (p < 0.001) with a median %EWL of 85.3% (72.1-96.1), a TWL of 75 (49-100) kg, and a %TWL of 50.9% (40.7-56.9). The complete remission rate was 87.5% for type 2 diabetes mellitus, 83.3% for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and 64.5% for hypertension. The main nutritional deficiencies post SADI-S were vitamin D (31.82%) and folic acid deficiencies (9.09%).

SADI-S could be considered as an efficient and safe procedure with regard to nutritional status, at least in mid-term (2 years) results. It represents a promising bariatric procedure because of the excellent metabolic and bariatric outcomes with acceptable nutritional deficiency rates. Nevertheless, larger studies with longer follow-ups are necessary to draw definitive conclusions.

Bariatric surgery is the most effective treatment for obese T2D. As one of the most effective bariatric surgeries, SADI-S was recently introduced in China, and there is limited evidence of its efficacy and safety in the treatment of obese T2D. The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of SADI-S in the treatment of obese T2D in China.

The clinical data of 32 obese T2D patients who underwent SADI-S was included in this study. Changes in weight-related indicators, diabetes-related indicators, and patient nutritional outcomes were analyzed.

SADI-S was conducted successfully in all of the 32 cases without conversion to laparotomy or death. The incidence of surgical complications was 15.6% (5/32). The major complication rate was 6.3% (2/32). At 1 year after surgery, the BMI (kg/m²) significantly decreased from 40.8 ± 7.4 to 23.9 ± 2.9 (P < 0.05) and the mean HbA1c significantly decreased from 8.5% (6.4-11.5) to 5.0% (3.8-5.6) (P < 0.05). At 2 years after surgery, the BMI (kg/m²) significantly decreased to 24.9 ± 2.4 (P < 0.05) and the mean HbA1c significantly decreased to (4.8 ± 0.4)% (P < 0.05). The %TWL was (40.4 ± 6.5)% and (42.9 ± 4.9)% at 1 year and 2 years, respectively. The complete remission rates for T2D were both 100% at 1 year and 2 years. Triglyceride levels were significantly improved compared with preoperative, from (3.2 ± 3.0) mmol/L to (1.0 ± 0.3) mmol/L (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in other nutritional outcomes.

The SADI-S has excellent curative effect in the treatment of Chinese obese T2D, but the operation is challenging and the complication rate is high. Its long-term efficacy and safety require further study.

To compare the efficacy of OADS and SG in treating obese T2D in China.

We included 99 obese Chinese patients with T2D undergoing OADS or SG with a 1-year postoperative follow-up from January 2014 to October 2021. Using the propensity score matching (PSM) method, patients from both groups were matched 1:1. Outcomes for losing weight, controlling diabetes, and nutrition were then determined.

There were 32 patients in each group after using the PSM method, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of all the baseline indicators (P > 0.05). When comparing weight loss outcomes, the OADS group outperformed the SG group in terms of change in BMI and %TWL, with statistically significant differences [15.0 (8.1-26.6) kg/m², 10.0 (4.10-23.5) kg/m² P = 0.001; 38.5% ± 6.7%, 29.5% ± 9.4%, P = 0.000]. When comparing the efficacy of diabetes, the OADS group outperformed the SG group in terms of HbA1C and complete remission of diabetes, with statistically significant differences [5.1 (3.8-5.6)%, 5.4 (4.3-7.9)%, P = 0.001; 100%, 75%, P = 0.005]. Besides, the incidence of postoperative zinc deficiency in the OADS group was significantly higher than in the SG group (P = 0.019) and there was no significant difference in other postoperative nutritional outcomes between the two groups.

Although OADS and SG are both effective in the treatment of obese T2D, OADS performs better. Besides, the long-term efficacy of both needs to be recorded at subsequent follow-up.

Introduction: Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a recent bariatric surgery technique, highly effective in terms of weight loss. Nevertheless, data regarding the impact of SADI-S at mid-long term (after >5 years of follow-up) are scarce. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of lengths of common intestinal loop on the evolution of patients with morbid obesity (MO), who undergo SADI-S. Materials and Methods: Descriptive study (case series), including patients with MO who underwent SADI-S procedure between January 2012 and December 2015 with at least 5 years of follow-up. Patients were classified as "Old-SADI-S" (OS) when length of the common alimentary loop was <2.5 m and "New-SADI-S" (NS) when length was >2.5 m. Clinical parameters and nutritional parameters were included. Results: Twenty-nine cases were included (17 OS; 12 NS), 86.2% women and mean age 46.7 ± 1 years. After 12 months, OS had significantly lower body mass index (29.7 ± 4.8 kg/m² versus 32.0 ± 5.1 kg/m², P = .01), without significant differences in the resolution of comorbidities. Nevertheless, OS group had severe malabsorptive complications requiring surgical conversion of OS to NS in 7 patients after 8 months. At 5 years of follow-up, no significant difference was seen between the two groups and resolution of comorbidities was maintained during this period of time. Conclusions: SADI-S is effective in terms of weight loss and resolution of comorbidities at 5 years of follow-up, regardless of the length of the common intestinal loop. However, a common intestinal loop <2.5 m was associated with severe malabsorptive complications that determined the surgical re-conversion in all cases.

Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a simplification of the duodenal switch (DS) in which the alimentary limb is eliminated, and the common channel is lengthened from 200 to 300 cm. Short-term results have demonstrated that SADI-S is safe and reproducible and that weight loss and comorbidities resolution are comparable to biliopancreatic diversion or DS.

To analyze the long-term outcomes of SADI-S.

From May 2007 to December 2015, 164 patients were consecutively submitted to a one-step SADI-S. The mean age was 47 years, and the mean body mass index (BMI) was 45.8 kg/m². A total of 101 patients had type 2 diabetes, 91 arterial hypertension, 81 obstructive apnea, and 118 dyslipidemia. Limb length was 200 cm in 50 cases, 250 cm in 99, and 300 cm in 15.

There was no mortality. One patient had a gastric leak, and 2 patients had an anastomotic leak. A total of 25% of the patients were lost to follow-up at 10 years. Excess weight loss and total weight loss were 87% and 38% at 5 years and 80% and 34% at 10 years. A total of 12 patients were submitted to revisional surgery for hypoproteinemia. Preoperatively 41 diabetics were under insulin treatment; at 5 years, 7 remained with insulin and 12 at 10 years. Mean glycemia was 104 mg/dL at 5 years and 118 mg/dL at 10 years. Mean HbA1c was 5.51% at 5 years and 5.86 at 10 years.

In the long term, SADI-S offers satisfactory weight loss and comorbidities resolution.

The prevalence of obesity has increased exponentially in recent decades, being one of the diseases that most affects global health. It is a chronic disease associated with multiple comorbidities, which lead to a decrease in life expectancy and quality of life. It requires a multidisciplinary approach by a specialized medical team. Obesity can be treated with conservative or with surgical treatments that will depend on the characteristics of the patient.

The referenced surgery can be performed using different surgical techniques that are analyzed in the present work through an exhaustive narrative bibliographic review in the PubMed and Cochrane databases, as well as in UpToDate.

Currently, those most used are restrictive techniques, specifically vertical gastrectomy and mixed techniques, with gastric bypass being the "gold standard".

In order to choose one technique or another, the characteristics of each patient and the experience of the surgical team must be taken into account.

There are no comparative studies on the long-term outcomes after the primary traditional duodenal switch (DS) and single-anastomosis duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S).

This study aims to compare the long-term outcomes in a matched cohort.

This study took place in a single private institute, in the USA.

Data from 266 patients who underwent a primary laparoscopic traditional DS or primary laparoscopic SADI-S from September 2011 to December 2015 by four surgeons were used for a retrospective matched cohort. Data were obtained by matching every DS patient to a SADI-S patient of the same age, sex, and body mass index (BMI). In addition, only patients that were out at least 5 years and had a minimum 5-year follow-up were included in the study.

The matched cohort included 30 DS and 30 SADI-S patients. There were no statistically significant differences in the preoperative characteristics and baseline comorbidities between both groups. The SADI-S patients had significantly shorter operative time and length of stay. The overall long-term complications, especially the long-term Clavien-Dindo grade IIIb complications, were significantly fewer with SADI-S. At 6 years, the DS patients had statistically higher %EWL; however, the ending BMIs were statistically similar between both groups. There were no significant differences in the long-term comorbidity and nutritional outcomes of both groups. The long-term failure rates were comparable.

Most long-term outcomes of SADI-S were either similar or significantly better than DS. Part of the reasons could be the surgeon's learning curve and the small sample sizes of both groups.

Based on recent scientific evidence, bariatric surgery is more effective in the management of morbid obesity and related comorbidities than conservative therapy. Pylorus preserving surgical procedures (PPBS) such as laparoscopic single-anastomosis duodeno-jejunal or duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy are modified duodenal switch (DS) surgical techniques. The duodeno-jejunal bypass liner (DJBL) is a novel surgical method in the inventory of metabolism focused manual interventions that excludes duodeno-jejunal mucosa from digestion, mimicking DS procedures without the risk of surgical intervention. The aim of this article is to summarize and compare differences between safety-related features and weight loss outcomes of DJBL and PPBS.

A literature search was conducted in the PubMed database. Records of DJBL-related adverse events (AEs), occurrence of PPBS-related complications and reintervention rates were collected. Mean weight, mean body mass index (BMI), percent of excess of weight loss (EWL%), percent of total weight loss (TWL%) and BMI value alterations were recorded for weight loss outcomes.

A total of 11 publications on DJBL and 6 publications on PPBS were included, involving 800 and 1462 patients, respectively. The baseline characteristics of the patients were matched. Comparison of DJBL-related AEs and PPBS-related severe complications showed an almost equal risk (risk difference (RD): -0.03 and confidence interval (CI): -0.27 to 0.21), despite higher rates among patients having received endoscopic treatment. Overall AE and complication rates classified by Clavien-Dindo showed that PPBS was superior to DJBL due to an excess risk level of 25% (RD: 0.25, CI: 0.01-0.49). Reintervention rates were more favourable in the PPBS group, without significant differences in risk (RD: -0.03, CI: -0.27 to 0.20). However, PPBS seemed more efficient regarding weight loss outcomes at 1-year follow-up according to raw data, while meta-analysis did not reveal any significant difference (odds ratio (OR): 1.08, CI: 0.74-1.59 for BMI changes).

Only limited conclusions can be made based on our findings. PPBS was superior to DJBL with regard to safety outcomes (GRADE IIB), which failed to support the authors' hypothesis. Surgical procedures showed lower complication rates than the incidence of DJBL-related AEs, although it should be emphasized that the low number of PPBS-related mild to moderate complications reported could be the result of incomplete data recording from the analysed publications. Weight loss outcomes favoured bariatric surgery (GRADE IIB). As the DJBL is implanted into the upper gastrointestinal tract for 6 to 12 months, it seems a promising additional method in the inventory of metabolic interventions.

The "Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal bypass with Sleeve gastrectomy" (SADI-S) is a bariatric surgery conceived to simplify the duodenal switch in order to reduce its postoperative complications. The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of SADI-S, comparing its results in both direct and two-step procedure.

Unicentric cohort study that includes patients submitted to SADI-S, both direct or in two-step, between 2014 and 2019.

Two hundred thirty-two patients were included, 192 were submitted to direct SADI-S and 40 had previously undergone a sleeve gastrectomy. The severe complications rate (Clavien-Dindo ≥ IIIA) was 7.8%, being hemoperitoneum and duodenal stump leak the most frequent ones. One patient was exitus between the first 90 days after surgery (0.4%). Patients submitted to direct SADI-S had an initial body mass index (BMI) of 49.6 kg/m² in comparison of 56.2 kg/m² in the two-step SADI-S (P < .001). The mean excess weight loss (EWL) at two years was higher in direct SADI-S (77.3 vs. 59.3%, P < .05). Rate of comorbidities resolution was 88.5% for diabetes, 73.0% for hypertension, 77.0% for dyslipidemia and 85.7% for sleep apnea, with no differences between both techniques.

In medium term, SADI-S is a safe and effective technique that offers a satisfactory weight loss and remission of comorbidities. Patients submitted to two-step SADI-S had a higher initial BMI and presented a lower EWL than direct SADI-S.

The need for revisional procedures after sleeve gastrectomy (SG) for insufficient weight loss or weight regain, gastroesophageal reflux, or other complications is reported to be 18-36% in studies with 10-year follow-up. Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass (SADI) may be performed as a revisional procedure after SG. This study aims to evaluate the short- and mid-term outcomes of SADI after SG in a referral center for bariatric surgery.

Data of patients who underwent SADI between March 2015 and March 2020 were collected prospectively and analyzed retrospectively. Follow-up comprised clinical and biochemical assessment at 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months postoperatively, and once a year thereafter.

Overall, 106 patients underwent SADI after a previous SG. The timeframe between SG and SADI was 50 ± 31.3 months. Postoperative mortality was observed in two cases (1.8%) and morbidity in 15.1% of patients. At 24 months, %total weight loss was 37.6 ± 12.3 and %excess weight loss 76.9 ± 25.2 (64 patients). Three patients were treated for malnutrition during follow-up, two with medical treatment and one with SADI reversal.

SADI after SG provides effective weight loss results in the short-term, even if in the present series the postoperative complication rate was non-negligible. Further trials are needed to establish the more advantageous revisional bariatric procedure after failed SG.

Single-anastomosis duodenal switch (SADS) has become increasingly popular. This review compared the conceptual difference between Eastern (SADS-E) and Western (SADS-W) countries. After searching for SADS through PubMed and high-impact journals, 19 articles with 2280 patients were included for analysis. We found SADS-W was reserved for patients with a high body mass index (BMI) without type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Surgeons performing SADS-W used larger bougies and preferred shorter common channels. However, SADS-E was mainly preferred in T2DM patients with a low BMI. SADS-E bypassed less bowel and used smaller bougies. The spectra of major postoperative complications, nutritional deficiencies, and gastrointestinal disorders were different between SADS-E and SADS-W. SADS-W yielded better weight loss and better T2DM remission than SADS-E. SADS are effective bariatric and metabolic procedures with promising therapeutic outcomes and acceptable safety.

With worsening of the obesity pandemic, gastroenterologists will see more patients with this chronic disease. Given the association between obesity and several gastrointestinal conditions and the interplay between obesity pathophysiology and gut hormones, gastroenterologists can play an important role in the management of this disease. Furthermore, because more patients undergo bariatric surgery, an understanding of postsurgical anatomy and medical and endoscopic management of bariatric surgical complications is essential. This article provides clinical tools for the assessment and management of obesity for the general gastroenterologist. Tables containing high-yield practical information are also provided for quick reference.

Single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is a bariatric procedure based on the standard duodenal switch surgery. It was first introduced in 2007 as a procedure for individuals with clinically severe obesity. Till date, primary SADI-S has not been used on Chinese with diabetes and body mass index (BMI) < 35 kg/m².

Here, we account the use of this novel surgery in Chinese with diabetes and BMI < 35 kg/m².

All relevant medical information, involving patients with diabetes and BMI < 35 kg/m², who received primary SADI-S at Beijing Shijitan Hospital from June 2017 to December 2018, was retrospectively assessed.

Twenty-six patients were selected for evaluation, and all of them completed a 2-year follow-up. The age, diabetic duration, and preoperative BMI were 35.5 (range 20-63) years, 3.5 (range 0.5-18) years, and 34.40 (range 28.74-34.96) kg/m², respectively. At 24 months, the percentage of total body weight loss (%TWL) and BMI were 26.26 (range 13.33-43.88) and 24.72 (range 17.96-29.07) kg/m², respectively. There were no serious complications or sequelae within a 2-year follow-up. In addition, for diabetes, 20/23 people achieved complete remission, whereas 3 achieved partial remission.

SADI-S is a highly effective and feasible bariatric surgery for Chinese having diabetes and BMI < 35 kg/m². However, care must be taken to follow a strict criteria for patient selection and to monitor patients carefully for the detection of postoperative nutritional sequelae.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and associated comorbid medical conditions are leading causes of strain on the American health care system. There has been a synchronous rise of obesity to epidemic proportions. If poorly treated, T2D is a scourge for patients, leading to end-organ damage and early mortality. Although T2D is considered best managed with lifestyle modification, medical management, and pharmacotherapy, recent studies have confirmed the superiority of metabolic surgery to conventional treatment algorithms as a path to remission. Increasing access to metabolic surgery will continue to yield benefits to patient health and improve the macroeconomic health of the world.

Single-anastomosis duodenal ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is an important emerging procedure in bariatric surgery as an alternative to performing the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or the Roux-en-Y duodenal switch. With this significant weight loss and low weight regain, SADI-S has low complication rates. SADI-S, because of its anatomic configuration, also does not increase ulcer risk in patients, with almost no ulcers observed. Because of the short common channel, malnutrition is a risk. Diabetes resolution is higher than with RYGB. Overall SADI-S is a safe and effective procedure for patients with higher body mass index and patients with diabetes.

The aim of this study was to compare myocardial mechanics using global longitudinal strain (GLS) before and after single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S).

A total of 21 obese patients undergoing SADI-S were prospectively included. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed before and after the procedure, and left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV) strain was assessed by two-dimensional speckle-tracking imaging (2DST).

Mean time between pre-procedural and post-procedural echocardiograms was 9.2 ± 3.3 months. Postoperatively, %total weight loss (%TWL) was 33.0 ± 1.7 and % excess weight loss (%EWL) was 75.5 ± 3.6. Body mass index (BMI) significantly decreased after surgery (45.6 ± 1.2 vs 29.6 ± 1.0; p < 0.001). Postoperatively, LV GLS experienced a significant improvement (-19.8% ± 0.5 vs -22.2% ± 0.4; p < 0.001). Regarding other relevant functional parameters, RV free-wall strain was equally recovered (-19.1% ± 0.7 vs -21.0% ± 0.8; p 0.047).

This study demonstrates important and favourable changes in cardiac deformation parameters after performing SADI-S. Malabsorptive bariatric techniques such as SADI-S induce significant weight loss, leading to an improvement in subclinical myocardial function in patients with obesity.

Single-anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy/one anastomosis duodenal switch (SADI-S/OADS) was developed as a bariatric operation with reduced overall morbidity and lasting weight loss results. We performed a systematic review of the literature, including 14 studies reporting on weight loss, comorbidity resolution, postoperative complications, and nutritional deficiencies following SADI-S. Twelve months after SADI-S, the mean total body weight lost ranged from 21.5 to 41.2%, with no weight regain being observed after 24 months. The comorbidity resolution rate was 72.6% for diabetes, 77.2% for dyslipidemia, and 59.0% for hypertension cases. The need for reoperation was the most common postoperative complication. While several patients developed nutrient deficiencies, SADI-S seems to be an overall safe and effective bariatric operation.

We designed a novel malabsorptive procedure named as jejunal-ileal loop bipartition (JILB), in which a jejunal-ileal loop is created to reduce the effective length of food chyme passage in the small bowel, but without exclusion of any segment of the intestine. This study is to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of JILB on weight loss and glycemic control in obese diabetic mouse model.

High-fat diet-induced C57BL/6 mice with typical obese and diabetic phenotypes were randomly divided into two groups according to the surgical procedure performed, including JILB (n = 8) and sham group (n = 8). Age-matched naïve C57BL/6 mice fed with rodent chow diet were adopted as normal controls. Body weight, food intake, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting plasma insulin (FPI), and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) were measured in vivo before and 2, 4, and 8 weeks after surgery. Plasma glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) was assayed before and 15 min after oral glucose challenge at the 8th week postoperatively.

Comparing to the sham animals, JILB group consumed similar amount of food, but had lower body weight after surgery (P < 0.01). It led to significant lower FPG (p < 0.05) and improved glucose tolerance with lower FPI (p < 0.001). And GLP-1 secretion at 15 min after oral glucose challenge was higher than shams (P < 0.05). No intestinal obstruction was identified.

JILB is potentially a metabolic and bariatric procedure that leads to effective weight loss and diabetes remission in obese diabetic subjects.

PreambleThe International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders (IFSO) has played an integral role in educating both the metabolic surgical and the medical communities at large about the role of innovative and new surgical and or endoscopic interventions in treating adiposity-based chronic diseases. The single anastomosis duodenal-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy/one anastomosis duodenal switch (SADI-S/OADS) is a relatively new procedure that has been proposed as an alternative to the conventional duodenal switch (DS) procedure. The IFSO published a position paper on SADI-S/OADS in 2018 with which concluded that this procedure was likely to be a safe and efficacious treatment for adiposity and its related diseases. However, it noted that there was insufficient long-term data and minimal high-level evidence available. The position statement called for patients to be enrolled in long-term multidisciplinary care encouraged the registration of patients in national registries, and called for more randomized controlled trials (RCT) (Obes Surg 28:1207-16, 2018) involving the procedure. The following position statement is an update of the previous position statement. It is issued by the IFSO SADI-S/OADS task force and has been reviewed and approved by both the IFSO Scientific Committee and Executive Board. This statement is based on current clinical knowledge, expert opinion, and published peer-reviewed scientific evidence. It will be reviewed again in 2 years.

The single anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) has been introduced in the past few years for the treatment of morbid obesity. SADI-S has shown good results in terms of long-term results and short-term complications. However, the management of patients undergoing SADI-S and suffering from a leak is a great challenge for surgeons. We present an extensive review of the currently available literature on the management of leak after SADI in morbid obese (MO) patients. We aim at providing objective information regarding the optimal management, including diagnosis, technical options for the different strategies that have been proposed, to facilitate the selection of the best individual approach for each MO patient.

The «Single Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal bypass with Sleeve gastrectomy» (SADI-S) is a bariatric surgery conceived to simplify the duodenal switch in order to reduce its postoperative complications. The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of SADI-S, comparing its results in both direct and two-step procedure.

Unicentric cohort study that includes patients submitted to SADI-S, both direct or in two-step, between 2014 and 2019.

Two hundred thirty-two patients were included, 192 were submitted to direct SADI-S and 40 had previously undergone a sleeve gastrectomy. The severe complications rate (Clavien-Dindo ≥ IIIA) was 7.8%, being hemoperitoneum and duodenal stump leak the most frequent ones. One patient was exitus between the first 90 days after surgery (0.4%). Patients submitted to direct SADI-S had an initial body mass index (BMI) of 49.6 kg/m² in comparison of 56.2 kg/m² in the two-step SADI-S (p < 0.001). The mean excess weight loss (EWL) at two years was higher in direct SADI-S (77.3 vs. 59.3%, p < 0.05). Rate of comorbidities resolution was 88.5% for diabetes, 73.0% for hypertension, 77.0% for dyslipidemia and 85.7% for sleep apnea, with no differences between both techniques.

In medium term, SADI-S is a safe and effective technique that offers a satisfactory weight loss and remission of comorbidities. Patients submitted to two-step SADI-S had a higher initial BMI and presented a lower EWL than direct SADI-S.

The long-term effectiveness of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and single-anastomosis duodeno-ileostomy with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) is unknown.

Compare the long-term outcomes.

Single private institute, USA.

Data from 1254 patients who underwent primary RYGB or SADI-S were used for a retrospective matched cohort. Data were obtained by matching every RYGB patient to a SADI-S patient of the same sex, body mass index (BMI), and weight. Only patients out 5 years and had at least one > 5-year follow-up visit were included.

The matched cohort included 61 RYGB and 61 SADI-S patients. There was no statistical, demographic difference between the two groups. At 5 years, a 100% follow-up was available in each group. The intraoperative outcomes were significantly better with SADI-S. The 30-day readmission, reoperation, emergency department (ED) visits, and complication rates were statistically similar between the two groups. The long-term complication rates, Clavien-Dindo grade IIIb complications, and number of patients with more than one complication were significantly lower with SADI-S. Weight loss was significantly greater in the SADI-S group at 5 years. The long-term weight-loss failure rate was significantly higher in the RYGB group. The SADI-S procedure was associated with fewer reintervention through 6 years (14.7% patients vs. 39.3% patients, p = 0.001). Conversion or reversal of the procedure was required only in the RYGB group. There also was no significant difference in nutritional outcomes between the two procedures.

This study showed that problems, including long-term complications, reinterventions, weight-loss failure, and conversion, were more often associated with RYGB than with SADI-S. The SADI-S may be considered one of the viable alternatives to RYGB.
